/// Piers went on to question Kehinde exactly why he chose to “live in this country” if he didn’t like it. ///

Good for you Piers.

I actually wrote w-t-f (as in the What The Funicular) but it seems AB changes it, much like when you type Site Rules or sandyRoe is hyper links the words

Aunt Lydia ///jackthhat I know Churchill was not a 'saint' He was a war monger he sent thousands to their death defending the UK. That's the difference: Defending, not Attacking///

My answer - I am not necessarily referring to WW2.

///You didn't fight in WW2, AOG.
That much we both know, and considering this thread is about Churchill and we have already covered, and compared him to Hitler, it is obvious I am referring to WW2. ///

My answer there shows that although the discussion was about WW2, I am acknowledging that you didn't fight in it.

"Deskdiary

The Bengal Famine."

My understanding is the famine had already gripped Bengal and Churchill decided to feed those at home and those fighting rather than send ships to India.

The results of the necessity may have been horrible....but it remains incomparable to the holocaust. Churchill didn't cause the famine. Hitler did cause the holocaust.

//Who is lecturing you for goodness sake, are you just trying to pick a fight? //

You do, all the time, and No, I'm not picking a fight, my granddad fought for me. Not you!! You won't actually tell us what you done so stop bringing it up.

[ToraToraTora]

your grandad fought for freedom for all of us ummmm, I am grateful to him, you don't seem to be.

[ToraToraTora]

stil waiting for ummmm to tell me how I made out I was a hero. also still waiting for someone to tell me how TGM is comparable to Saville. All seems to have gone a bit quiet.

[-Talbot-]

Never ceases to amaze me how some ABers will defend the indefensible.

This man is a nasty, horrible piece of ***.

Quite why some refuse to address the actual OP and say what they really think is beyond me.

Not getting involved TTT, my answer would most definitely be removed !! Love your avatar.

/// They were both male political leaders who went to war and were determined at the same point in time.. ///

Do you then think that if one of them had decided not to go to war, he would have been the better man?

I think that you will find that if Hitler had decided not to invade Poland and then the rest of Europe, there wouldn't have been a war.

So you can't place the blame for WW2 on Churchill's shoulders.

[spathiphyllum]

"Do you then think that if one of them had decided not to go to war, he would have been the better man?"

Not at all i just think the fact they both were political leaders at the same time in the same war gives them a lot of grounds to compare them.

[Spicerack]

The black guy seems to have more rights to his opinion than ABers.

[spathiphyllum]

For xxample, to even say (as said by those who say "ohh noo!!! don't compare them how DARE you!!) Hitler commuted mass genocide Churchill didn't you can't compare that, IS in fact an act of comparison.

ummmm

/// You do, all the time, and No, I'm not picking a fight, ///

You are certainly trying to.

/// my granddad fought for me. Not you!! ///

You are being rather silly now, I didn't know your Granddad, neither did he know me.

I presume he fought in the British armed forces during WW2, so in that roll he fought for all our freedoms, and since I was around during WW2 he must have fought for me, but not you because you wasn't even born.


You won't actually tell us what you done so stop bringing it up.

[ummmm]

TTT - I wasn't talking about you!!!

[AuntLydia]

He can say it because he is black. There will be no headlines tomorrow 'Black Man slags off Churchill' No Newspaper dare, for fear of being called racist. Because white people have to tread on eggshells, eggshell from the newly hatched 'snowflake' generation who have no idea what people in the early part of the last century had to go through to make Britain what it is today. This will probably get zapped but while its up I have to say Enoch Powell was right.

ummmm

/// You won't actually tell us what you done so stop bringing it up. ///

If I won't tell you what I have done, how can I keep bringing it up.

So perhaps you should take your own advice.
