Strange thing to us Canadians and French Churchill is somewhat despised. He threw away Canadians like they were used trash, not caring if they died through Montgomery. As to the French, he helped with FDR firebomb Japan & France's coastal cities, and also sunk the French fleet despite being an ally and seeking to 'liberate' France. He also chose to try to destroy France and had the temerity to bitch at Charles DeGaulle.
Honestly, don't like him. To me he isn't the bulldog who held Hitler at bay, so much as the 'drunken bum' as FDR often called him, who was a British Joe Bidden who sunk the Franco-British Empire he was gifted by abler men. What's interesting is that Tolkien & Lewis despised him, as did many alive when he was PM both in France & Britain and Canada also.
In my view, America was better off out of the war, and we all should have left Germany to her own devices. Everyone knows Hitler had designs on Russia, so let him tear apart Stalin, and then we mop up the victor.
But naturally when I bring this idea up, many shake and tremble with rage. Funny thing, the Japanese laugh and nod their heads in agreement (they're very well versed on the history of the era).
Interesting that the Japanese are red-pilled about the whole deal. Most Germans are not. Or maybe that’s changing.
I agree—should have let Hitler and Stalin duke it out and see if the Krauts and Ruskies were ready to be sensible afterwards. But again, Churchill insisted on keeping Britain in the war; and FDR was hell-bent on dragging America into it.
Agreed, it’s a shame. Heck there was a brief moment quand France could have been kept out, and they wanted to stay out but they were reluctantly made to declare war at the insistence of England.
