Confronting General Eisenhower Over Allies’ Refusal to Bomb Auschwitz (aish.com)

Why Didn't the Allies Bomb Auschwitz? (aish.com)

given the level of technolgy and Time Auschwitz the camp could have been bombed then the one time it was bombed....yet it would have made little difference....the Germans have concentration; slave labor and extermination camps from the Pyrnness to the Urals from Norway to North Africa....

Ironically the Verba-Wetler Report saved more Jewish Lives that any Bombing could have:

There was no way to surgically bomb targets, back then. Dropping objects from miles high produces inaccurate results. This is one reason as to why Allied-dropped bombs are still being discovered under German construction sites.
The indiscriminate destruction caused by the type of aerial bombing of this era would have raised the ethical question of, "Would it have been better to induce colateral damage to persons of whom would have otherwise have had a chance to survive?".
The British government unfortunately sat on the wrong side of the bench, during the Nürnburg trials.
