Sure, just name a conflict that was resolved by bombing, with the exception of Hiroshima/Nagasaki- which im not counting because those were nukes, and Japan was on the verge of surrender anyway.
A fair correction. I’ll counter than the USA dropped more bombs than WW2 total on Vietnam, including dropping 100,000 tons of bombs on a 40 mile² area and a) didn’t kill everyone, b) didn’t even bomb every settlement in that area and c) lost.
Vietnam’s population was a lot larger and the population was way less concentrated. Tiny concentrated population is a much easier matter to “deal with”

The comment just said that you could genocide most of the population. Not that it would resolve a conflict

eh, I still don’t buy it.
WW2 was gonna be over by the second Christmas, Ukraine was a month-long special operation, etc…
Do you have an example on a similar population/campaign?
