And let's not forget Sir Winston's sage words after Neville Chamberlain (are we SURE he wasn't John F'in Kerry's great grandfather or something?) sold out the Czechs in Munich:

"You had a choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor, and now you will most certainly have war."

(paraphrased)

Words of Truth like that are never diminished with the passage of time.

Listen to the difference in tone between Chamberlains' and Churchills' speeches,Chamberlain had already lost while Churchill would not allow defeat.

Winston Churchill made some very big mistakes in his life. However, when the stakes were the highest and the circumstances the most desperate, he was amazing. His courage, leadership and vision carried the day. I believe he was the greatest man of the 20th century.
