@Random_Blip 'You can add Indians to that list seeing as they hold him responsible for the Bengal famine of 1943 (millions of deaths).' Actually, only those who have been indoctrinated. Actually, the Bengal Famine had a number of causes, among which were the number of refugees from Japanese held areas, the inability to import food from those same areas, stockpiling by hoarders and, perhaps worst of all, the Bengal administration, which tried to minimise the crisis. The worst that could be said of Churchill was that he should have known what was taking place, but didn't. After all, in 1943, he had little else to worry about. You could also add the refusal of FDR to allow the transfer of merchant shipping, by the way. What is without dispute, except by those who choose to blame Churchill for everything since the Black Death, is that once he did find out, he transferred food distribution to the British Indian Army, and had grain convoys diverted from Australia to India. Seriously, when 2.5 million Indians were fighting for the Allied cause, would anyone really attempt to cause a famine? I appreciate, of course, that you won't believe any of this, as it would require you to try to break your programming.

@davehallett810 Thank you. However we may now both expect to be pilloried for not obeying the 'agenda.'

@oliveoil7642 Small point. The US did not nobly 'step in' but was reluctantly dragged in by Japan & Germany.

@dicksmall7976 I hate to point out the bleedin' obvious, but Churchill held no Government office between 1929 & September, 1939. There was no 'pretext.' France & Britain warned hitler of what their response would be if Poland was invaded. hitler simply chose to ignore it.

@georgesdelatour For 'united' read 'conquered.' Do you seriously think that most of Europe was grateful for what your hero did to it, herr Obergruppenfuhrer?

@pauldarlington5589 Really? Who, for example?

@pauldarlington5589 If you are as ignorant as you appear to be, your help would be of little use, except perhaps as comic relief.

@noogate2672 You mean apart from not having Concentration Camps, mass extermination, and forced deportation of slave labour, I assume>

@noogate2672 "Um actually, prisoner of war camps existed during the biggest conflict the world has ever seen so you can't complain about being replaced, displaced and psychological abused and tortured in your own ancestral homelands". Please show me where I made any such comments, still less any such complaint. "forced deportation of slave labour" Perhaps the facts about the deportation of slave labour to Germany escaped you, or perhaps you simply deny it.
