"It is a matter of great regret that the throwing of bombs by zeppelins
on London was denounced as a most savage act and the bombardment of
places of worship and sacred spots was considered a most abominable
operation. While we now see with our own eyes that such operations were a
habit which is prevalent among all civilized people of the west"
