Churchill saw it from the perspective of someone living in a world that didn't include instant communication, WMDs, suicide attackers, or an enabling body politic.

And common people of Churchill's day wouldn't have stood by and allow atrocities we, the "enlightened" of today, allow to take place in our very mists, and on regular basis.

The people of his day would have been up in arms and dealt with the perpetrators themselves. Rabble-rouser I'm not - just stating fact.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." - Edmund Burke (1729 - 1797)

Good points. I wonder what he thought about the Mufti of Jerusalem. I assume he must have know about the pact between Hitler and the Mufti.
