"Survival is not only a natural right, it is a natural imperative. It needs no apology, it needs no defense, no matter how brutal. The greatness of Churchill is that he fully understood this and was prepared to be as brutal as necessary, or more.

The peace that the atomic bombs wrought is their own justification."

You sound Churchillian. Nicely put.

Thanks, but I must give the credit were due, to my long late father. Now he was "Churchillian". My dad liked to say that Churchill encouraged and gave the otherwise timid and civilized British the permission to be as brutal and vicious as necessary to survive and in surviving, become victorious.

The press, the left and the PC made necessary by the gays and feminists would never permit a Churchill today. He would be silenced.
