Talk:Strategic bombing

Use of gas in Mesopotamia

"The Trenchard School theories were successfully put into action in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) where RAF bombers used high-explosive bombs, gas bombs, and strafing against guerrilla forces."

The use of gas appears to be a myth. It is discussed here...

Evolution of Strategic Bombing in the Ukraine

The following draft was rejected (which is ok) but what is going on in the Ukraine is similar to strategic bombing in some ways. I did not thing the content was appropriate for this entry; nevertheless it needs to be mentioned somewhere. At this time I would request comments and ideas..

Draft:Russian Strategic Targeting of the Ukraine Flibbertigibbets (talk) 23:45, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

As with your recent edit to this article, this AFC draft is full of original research. The purpose of Wikipedia is not to add your own conjecture and beliefs on a subject, but to summarise what is mentioned in reliable sources. Loafiewa (talk) 00:29, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

I have no beliefs on the subject; "strategic bombing" or "strategic targeting" is factually occurring and it is being reported in the press from many reliable sources. There is absolutely no shortage of reliable sources that explicitly mention "strategic bombing" (just do a google search of news with "strategic bombing" in quotes).

Supporting Sources could include Washington Post, ABC news, CNBC, The Times, CNN, Foreign Affairs, Daily Express, Real clear defense, et al..

"do not actually know what the purpose of the bombing is" <-it is occurring - it is widely reported -- Russia does not have to say why -- nobody can predict a result or effect

If I am not presenting this topic well; I would challenge anyone to address the concern of this major factual omission.
