Entry: The Scapegoating of Churchill? Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/the_scapegoating_of_churchill#27920 Post contents: Pat Buchanan is pointing out the truth about Churchill and using many quotes from the era to back it up. He isn't second guessing but pointing out, that many of Churchill's contempoary critics were right. Here is a list of some of Churchill's great acomplishments. 1]. Builder of the modern welfare state as a Liberal. 2]. Warmonger in chief, as First Lord of the Admiralty. 3]. Genius of Gallipoli 4]. Father of modern Israel and Iraq as postwar Colonial Secretary. 5]. Genius of The Treasury as Lord Chancellor. 6]. Vicous opponent of Ghandi and Indian independence. 7]. Backer of Edward the Eighth in his wacky marriage. 8]. Genius of Narvik in his return as First Lord. 9]. His refusal to negotiate with Hitler in defiance of many in the cabinet, left millions of Jews to Hitlers mercy. 10]. Destroyer of the French fleet which was in no way a threat to Britain. 11]. The first to Bomb German cities to make sure Hitler gave up any idea of peace. 12]. Fierce anticommunist who gave Hitler's partner Stalin a blank check and went out of his way to kiss his ass. 13. Ass kisser of Roosevelt who gave away the Empire's last silver to keep on fighting and bankrupted the Empire. 14]. His refusal to help the German resistance and going along with the unconditional surrender order made sure that Stalin would get to central Europe. 15]. War Criminal in Iraq, Ireland, the terror bombing campaign, and the shipment of people back to Stalin, among others. 16]. Hero of Yalta; who gave 100 million including Poland and eastern Germany to a known monster. 17].Unelected war leader, who was thrown out in a landslide when the people finally had a chance to vote. What is his legacy? Nothing he ever set out to do, seems to have turned out well. He was a brilliant, physically couragous, self absorbed, almost total failure. Sent at: 2009 01 09
