I have to say again "true, but un-illuminating". The firebombing of Dresden and the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki *were* terrorist acts, by any reasonable definition of the word. They were acts explicitly deisgned to kill large quatities of civilians and inspire terror. One could argue (as many did at the time) that these were lesser evils than the alternatives, but I don't think it's reasonable to claim that the acts themselves were 'good'.
