Those who came away from the smokestacks of the crematoria know what they want. We want tanks demolishing city streets. Rebuilding comes later. Our job now is destruction. Who dares deny it to us? We are Frankensteins. We, who came away from the ruins, will show the world. We will snap up the name Jew in every language and uplift it. Words of vengeance will light our way. For as long as one member of this nation remains, we shall not rest.

Fuck around and find out :germany-cool: :stalin-gun-1: :stalin-gun-2:
The atom bombings or fire bombings of Japan are the closest equivalent action I can think of. That reconstruction faces the same problem West Germany did, allowing the fascists back into power, but if those had been one-off bombings then I don't know what the propaganda value would be. Like I've never told a fascist "fuck around but you'll get atom bombed for it" or used it rhetorically the same way I do T-34s. The arbitrariness and visual horror of those bombings make them distasteful. If Manchurians had dropped the bomb maybe it'd be more poetic than as retribution for attacking a military base that shouldn't be in Hawaii anyway.
