The German's dropped bombs on Britain in an effort to destroy British industry, supplies, and air-fields. It was also at times to exact a human toll to help them demoralize the population. For the purpose of preparing for an invasion of England.
In the first campaigns the German's thought they could destroy the British air-force. When the "Battle of Britain" proved this to be impossible, the German's switched their targets to more of the civilian sectors.
In the last years of the war, with their own air-force depleted, the German's had developed V-1 and V-2 rockets that they used against Britain. With these new weapons they were killing more civilians in England than they were soldiers in the field. These types of targets were as much Hitler's rage against the Allies, as they were strategic.

initially, this became an twist of destiny. A lone German bomber, which became lost and rancid objective, unloaded that is bombs in the past heading domicile. It did so over London. In retaliation to this the RAF, in defiance of Herman Georings public assurances that no enamy planes might fly over Reich teritory, sent a small bombing stress to drop bombs on Berlin. Hitler became livid and ordered the mass bombing of London. it could have stopped there and, if Hitler became clever, the Luftwaffe could have persevered to attack British air bases and naval ports. besides the shown fact that, Hitler was hoping to break the will of the British people by utilising bombing the cities and to confirm that his inventive and prescient of entire conflict rather envolved non fighters besides with the aid of fact the defense force. It became believed that the will of the prevalent public may well be broken and that they might withdraw help for a protracted term conflict. try watching "The conflict of england", a touch sturdy movie with regard to the conflict. success

because they were tall and blonde and, thus, were automatically entitled to do as they pleased? ;-) remember world war 2? it began, officially, in 1939. and the attack on britain was designed to prepare it for a german invasion, as part of der fuehrer's plan for world domination. actually if you want the "truer" version concerning what this and probably all modern wars are about, and who is really behind them, you could begin by "googling" , strangely enough, "bush crime family".
