Different volumes of the same title.  OK, i'll give you the benefit of doubt. 

Who knows, perhaps it was a desperate act by Churchill to try and save the Empire he'd destroyed.  He would have seen them as separate to the British race/heritage.   

He was all about money.  He was a bigot and a war mongering alcoholic.

Yeah.  The way he started that war against a perfectly peaceful Hitler was a fucking disgrace, the fat tory twat.

Tbh, Churchill didn't destroy the empire. The empire pretty much dissolved. Its time was past.

I've read a couple of the many Churchill biographies and it seems to me that his bigotry was typical of his times, but also that he did include all the "English-speaking peoples", regardless of colour as British Subjects.

He helped finish it.  The war put us in massive debt. 

But people don't excuse Hitler's bigotry as "typical of the times".   He may of considered them as "English-speaking peoples" but not as the same race and he would have seen them as inferior.

Hitler's bigotry was in many ways typical of his times--he certainly didn't invent anti-Semitism. It would be a dangerous mistake to assume that his particular brand of bigotry was unique or rare.

For a moment there I thought that Churchill had just been compared to Hitler but I suppose I must have dreamt it.

The odds of anyone at all being compared to Hitler are fairly high on this site.

Why be obsessed with Jooz?  He helped Zionizts and Zionizm greatly.  He didn't help Polish people, Gypsies or the disabled in the slightest.

Wouldn't want to be overly harsh, on Hitler.

You must have. This is a family-oriented site.

If you by "helping" mean "killing 6 million people", then I suppose you are on to something.
