In an earlier version the BBC report included a reporter stating they were given warning but not even ten minutes to evacuate...

This is part of "finish the job", right?!

I'm reminded of how the Associated Press served as the NAZI's sole US official propaganda agent from 1933 to 1941. (So called) news reports coming from the AP office in NAZI Germany were reviewed and and approved by NAZI officials before they could be released in the US. In effect, the AP was NAZI Germany's propaganda publisher for Adolph Hitler.

Would the righteous people have disapproved if British or French bombers had dropped their loads on the Berlin office of the Associated Press in 1940 or 1941? How many millions of innocent people have been spared from Hitler's extermination camps had Hitler been deprived of his propaganda agents? How much human carnage could the world have been spared had the then "mainstream media" served the best interest of humankind rather than its own interests and pocketbook. Imagine, had Hitler succeeded, imagine how the Associated Press would have benefited.
