Yes, i mentioned that further down, however here i meant the bombings solely between England, and Germany. This is why i wrote you cannot see these bombings without looking at Poland (and Guernica).
But the bomb dropping on houses at London near the harbour by a Ju87, was done unintentionally. I am sure either side would have soon found another pretext though.

Oh, and the first bombing of a city, was from a German Zeppelin onto the city of Liege on the 6th August 1914.

Germany was the only power at that time, to have a possibility to do that at all. The Entente would certainly have held back later with
their bombings, had not Germany bombed Liège.
