University of Cambridge: An article that Winston Churchill wrote but then banned from publication because of its “perverse” messages about the persecution of Jews has been uncovered by a Cambridge University historian.

New York Times: Churchill took swipe at Jews in 1937 article

Reuters: Long lost Churchill paper on Jews uncovered

and then comes this from the International Churchill Society:

Myth and Reality – What Did Churchill Really Think About the Jews?

In fact, this article has not “lain unnoticed,” and not one word of it was written by Churchill. Nor did the article ever appear in print, either under his name or that of any other. The article was written in its entirety by a British journalist, Adam Marshall Diston (1893-1956).

Winston Churchill was not available for comment.

Speculating on why the article never saw the light of day, he concluded: “In terms of its potential impact on public opinion, it was one thing to say these things in 1937 but quite different to say them in 1940 when Britain was at war.”

And to top it off nicely, Solzhenitsyn's book, Two Hundred Years Together hasn't found a translator or a publisher in the West.

Who was it said, if you want to know who rules you, identify whom you must not criticize...(paraphrased)
