Exactly this. The “Blitz” is shown in practically every WW2 film to strengthen the psyop that “evil Germans” were bombing civilians.
The fact is that bombing London and other cities was a retaliation after German civilians were killed in raids on cities.
Hitler should have ignored it and continued with industrial targets.
Another aspect is the famous “Dam busters”, they actually managed to glorify war criminals that caused hundreds to drown and destroyed countless homes. Churchill signed off on this.
The whole story of WW2 is mostly lies.
Goering was bombing very little industrial targets before the blitz, he was concentrating on destroying the RAF by attacking airfields and aircraft factories. The RAF was beaten by this, but Goering and Hitler decided to start bombing cities, the Baedeker raids. This gave the RAF time to train up more pilots and source aircraft spares from the factories
As for Churchill, he was effing useless. A terrible war leader in WW!, his Dardanelles campaign was a waste of time and life, a useless home secretary (The Siege of Sidney Street) and the worst chancellor of the exchequer there has ever been. Period.
I remember I had a few Lucas art’s flight sims back in the day. Why flying luftwaffe missions it was always airfields, factories (airplane related) and radar stations (chain high and chain low).
When I said industry, I meant related to air defence mainly.
Have tonnes of books on the Battle of Britain, the British were being decimated until Hitler changed tack.
