It's perhaps worth mentioning that it was the RAF that started the aerial war with Germany by attacking Berlin, which led to a German response. Churchill, I imagine, was determined to provoke a German retaliatory response, which would undermine those of his rivals who were inclined to accept the generous German peace terms, rather than bankrupting the Empire in an attempt to fight an unwinnable war on the European mainland.
