Bloody Sunday wasnt a war crime, it was merely self defence.

Wow.

Allo Allo.

Watched this old cobblers on Gold the other week for two episodes, totally hilarious. Again with other comedies, had non-PC content that wouldn't get written now.

Maggie ordering the sinking of The Belgrano, sailing away from the Falklands and 750 miles outside the exclusion zone.

Is this limited to WWII, if not there's probably loads of examples throughout our history

Two off the top of my head, the Bombing of Dresden and Bloody Sunday.

What are yours?

I am sure relations of families killed in the blitz on Merseyside will think that's a load of cack!

 

[RaleighBlue]

Dresden wasn't a war crime.

As for things that were, I would say Amritsar or the suppression of the Morant Bay revolt in Jamaica.

If not, it was certainly close to one.

It was fueled by retribution rather than strategy. Which is a pretty dark way to kill 20 thousand civilians.
