It has to be said that Doctor Strangelove falls into the category of fiction that Strange mentioned however, Vonnegut makes an interesting comparison.
Slaughterhouse five talks about the day the allies bombed Dresden. It has moments of humour - but is that as bad as B&H? Were the pilots on that raid heroes (trying to end a war that slaughtered millions) or villains (dropping bombs on civilians to burn them alive).
