SO this guy on the right deliberately targeted defenceless children presumably stabbing kids screaming for their mummies as they died. He did this just for the horror of it. Evil right?
Yet 80 years ago this year, on Valentine's Day 1945 Churchill ordered the firebombing of Dresden. While people were sending each other valentines cards, bombers set light to the city of 1.2 million people.
They then left it for the emergency services from surrounding areas to arrive.
They then bombed them.
And then later that day they did it again creating a firestorm that obliterated the historic city, creating winds of 150 miles per hour and temperatures of 800oC melting and destroying everything.
120,000 were listed as missing, vaporised in the intense heat.
There was no strategic purpose. Allies had air superiority and the war was all but over with Germany surrendering less than 12 weeks later.
So that is 40,000 children screaming for their mummies in one day in one city as Churchill deliberately killed them just for the horror. If it wasn't for the sound of the fires that would have been a sound from the depths of Hell**.
And yet we have a statue of Churchill at the heart of the UK and some say he is a hero.
Is Rudakubana not a hero simply because he killed only 3 and not 40,000.
** If the loudness of a single child's scream is 100db then the sound of say n = 40,000/24/4 ~ 400 (15mins)
Vn = V1 +10 * log10(n)
Vn = 100 + 10 * Log10(400) = 126dB
Assuming inverse square law for attenuation of sound and an atmospheric damping of α=0.01dB/m
On a clear night the scream of the children would be audible 40 miles away for 24 hours. Or with more realistic environmental factors between 20-30 miles.
If Rudakubana had been Churchill, on a still windless night you could have heard the screams of dying children as far away as Manchester city centre.
This is a scene of horror beyond imagination, an event beyond anything mankind had known before. And yet we have a statue of Churchill in London but not one of Rudakubana.
