I think, too, the actual quotations from the doctor were somewhat ambiguous. What she seems to have actually said (if she did say it) is that some of the clearly terminal patients were given high doses of morphine which _may_ have slightly hastened already-impending deaths, because it was a way of keeping them comfortable in gruelling circumstances. Which is, in all honesty, not that distant from things that happen in normal medical practice.

The emphasis on the "looters and rapists" is coming not so much from the doctor as from the Mail, and I do suspect that a certain number of the "looting and raping" stories are manifestations of white-people hysteria; a lot of them prove, on examination, to be about things that happened to "somebody I heard about", not something anyone actually saw themselves.
