Actually not that far removed from what he has actually said, to be fair.
Which quote are you thinking of?
"Dresden? There is not such a place any longer." or maybe "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them."
I heard Hugo Boss designed the SS uniforms to be black so they would hide the shit stains better
Since I am super pedantic...
Hugo Boss didn't design those uniforms. He owned one of the factories that produced these uniforms.
Didn't know that, thanks!
The predecessor to the SS, the SA had brown uniforms
Okay, “lol” is how you respond when laughing out loud, but is there an abbreviation for a wheezing laugh like the one I just made?
I think it's just WHEEZE
Ah yes, famous genocidal maniac, Bomber Harris.
Killing even more famous genocidal maniacs. Sometimes you Fight fire with fire.
Ah yes, those damned civilians were just asking for it.

Neither did his enemies.
Is bombing civilians a war crime?
Targeting civilians is a war crime, but targeting infrastructure and killing civilians in the process is not.
The Allies went for the "Shock and Awe" bombings. Harris was most definitely guilty of war crimes.
War crimes don't count if you win though.
Which crimes are those?
I think the strategy was actually called "No, you!"
