I'm quite sure I've never posted a 107 year old excerpt on this forum. But in light of recent events, including the Chapel Hill terrorist incident last Friday, Churchill's take remains amazingly timely.

Good stuff from old Winston. Posted many times in threads. Third time in a month on its own. Bares repeating.

Churchill had combat experience fighting the fuzzy wuzzy muzzy terrorists of his day.

Churchill was also an excellent painter. Amazingly the first time he picked up a paint brush he was 40 years old. He was going through depression at the time and was looking for something to occupy himself.

Some other great quotes by Churchill


I do not agree that the dog in a manger has the final right to the manger even though he may have lain there for a very long time. I do not admit that right. I do not admit for instance, that a great wrong has been done to the Red Indians of America or the black people of Australia. I do not admit that a wrong has been done to these people by the fact that a stronger race, a higher-grade race, a more worldly wise race to put it that way, has come in and taken their place.

Churchill to the Palestine Royal Commission (1937)

It is alarming and also nauseating to see Mr. Gandhi, a seditious Middle Temple lawyer of the type well-known in the East, now posing as a fakir, striding half naked up the steps of the Viceregal palace to parley on equal terms with the representative of the King-Emperor.
Comment on Gandhi's meeting with the Viceroy of India (1931)

One may dislike Hitler's system and yet admire his patriotic achievement. If our country were defeated, I hope we should find a champion as indomitable to restore our courage and lead us back to our place among the nations.
"Hitler and His Choice", The Strand Magazine (November 1935)

I feel that Briton colonization was the main reason why extremism in Muslim countries took hold. From Palestine, Kashmir to Iraq. The British leader in 1900s were racist and they hated muslims so they used divide and conquer method to create artificial boundaries between countries in 1900s.

Churchill was a pure genius. Here is something I found with him in it discussing Sharia. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yP__2BhdunM&feature=channel_video_title
