The RAF undertook numerous raids where the bomb loads were very similar to those that induced the Hamburg/Dresden firestorms, and they didn't result in similar firestorms in these other raids.

Like others have noted, other factors other than the bomb types have to be right for a firestorm to begin.

You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.

And so as I patrol in the valley of the shadow of the tricolour I must fear evil, For I am but mortal and mortals can only die
