France, though armed to the teeth, is pacifist to the core. - Winston Churchill, House of Commons. December 23, 1932.

It is still true today> The third largest nuclear power in the world, and look at them...

The American eagle sits on his perch, a large, strong bird with formidable beak and claws. There he sits motionless, and M. Gromyko Saddam Hussein is sent day after day to prod him with a sharp pointed stick — now his neck, now under his wings, now his tail feathers. All the time the eagle keeps quite still. But it would be a great mistake to suppose that nothing is going on inside the breast of the eagle.

Thanks for all your great work!

I just started the "Last Lion" by W. Manchester. I can tell it's going to be a great book.

Where is it all to end? To try to buy off Nazidom, or any other sign of moral weakness, would only be to bring near the very thing we still hope may be averted. - Winston Churchill, House of Commons. June 28, 1939.

Insert the word Islam and ole Winnie's words still ring true today. Great post and thanks.

"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent vice of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries. - Winston Churchill, House of Commons, October 22, 1945."

Many thanks for the great post. This one leapt from the screen:

If all of a sudden two powers with equal forces went to war, and one threw it’s bombs upon cities so as to kill as many women and children as possible, and the other threw its bombs on the aerodromes and air bases and factories and arsenals and dockyards and railway focal points of the other side, can anyone doubt that next morning the one who had committed the greatest crime would not be the one who had reaped the greatest advantage? - Winston Churchill, Speech, House of Commons, March 21, 1922.

And thus Winston explains the reasoning for which we become the same thing as is presumably being fought. 23 years, almost to the day, before Dresden.

Isn't there a quote about ,
"they were offered a choice between cowardice and war,
they chose cowardice and now they shall have war."

Thought that was Churchill's too.
