Terror bombardment was used as a strategy during WWII by UK Air Marshall Harris, who eschewed attempts at precision bombing against strategic targets, such as oil, transportation and industrial centres. The result was the death of an estimated 600,000 German civilians, including more than 100,000 in the firebomb attack on Dresden. Subsequent firebombing of Tokyo by the USA killed more Japanese civilians that did the atomic bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The doctrine of terrorist mass destruction remained in the Vietnam War; head of the Strategic Air Command, General LeMay's prescription to end the war was: "Bomb them back into the Stone Age".
