After WWII, Germany was defeated, bankrupt, and mostly a pile of rubble from Allied bombing raids.
The most important reason is the fact that the Allies won. It's the victor who writes history. Another reason might be that Germany began with bombing cities and the Allied bombings were retaliations.
On September 9, 1942, Mount Emily, near Brookings, became the first site in the continental United States to suffer aerial bombardment in wartime. Fifty years after the incident, the Japanese pilot, who survived the war, would return to Oregon to help dedicate a historical plaque at the exact spot where his two bombs had impacted. The elderly pilot then donated his ceremonial sword as a gesture of peace and closure of the bombing of Oregon in 1942. The Memorial Plaque is located in Brookings, Oregon at the site of the 1942 bombing.
