And in any event, the Allied bombing of Dresden is a fact. So if I dwell on it, while ignoring anything that led to it, then I guess I'm properly neutral.This is a very good example. When I note that the allies bombed the hell out of Dresden, and that a lot of civilians were killed in the bombing, am I a Nazi sympathizer if I don't go into the causes and roots of World War II? Yes, I realize that many people on both sides would like me to attach an editorial to each and every statement of fact about Israel/Palestine noting that their opponents are a bunch of amoral butchers, but I've already gone into why I'm not going to do so.
