Taken from a dutch tv show called "A glorious accident" made by Wim Kayzer.
Freeman dyson talks about his days in Bomber Command. The bombing of dresden and Eichmann.
He has a very honest opinion about his own role in the war as a bureaucrat. He compares his role in the war to that of German bureaucrats who had a role in the death of prisoners in nazi concentration camps.

  • The interviewer is trying to get him to crack and admit he was immoral. But all's fair in love and war. It was kill or be killed. If Germany is going to bomb London every night, then payback's a bitch. That's war, vavy. Germany could have surrendered in '44 and stopped it all. But NO!!! Germany was busy gassing people in concentration camps while Dresden burned. The interviewer forgot to put it all in perspective.

  • @DexterHaven49, you have a point there, but then again I heard some historians say that the bombing of the german city´s made the germans indifferent towards the faith of their enemies.

    WW2 was in itself and unnessacary war and could have been stopped many times and in that perspective an immoral was as are all wars...
