Never was so much owed by so many to so few - Winston Churchill Speeches

[Elberiver11]

Churchill rejected all German peace offers - if the Germans had had her way, the war would have been ended in 1939, before it was a world war yet.

It was Winston Churchill, the man who in his own words "loved war and shattering people's lives", who is responsible for the world war. This horrible hideous madman, biggest English warcriminal in history, should have been arrested, tried and hanged for warcrimes, atrocities and genocide.

[directHITz]

To that German guy below who claims Britain was the aggressor in WW2 and that Churchill was the tyrant, not Hitler... To the tune of olé: 2-0 2-0 2-0 2 niiiiil, 2niiiil, 2 nillll. Repeat until you get bored

[Wadaryu1000]

Another of the classic quotes was when a lady in Parliament accussed 'Mr. Churchill, you are drunk!"

To which our beloved Winsto replied along the lines of

'Lady Speaker, you are ugly, but in the morning, I will be sober!'

[RedDragonessThe]

Really lovely photo montage.

[LolFishFail]

In all reality, what is the worth of our "patriotic comments". We must unite and fix Britain! No amount of youtube will fix that.

[jakthemak]

@Elberiver11 1. We don't have Hollywood 2. In irag we were stopping a genocidal terrorist from getting a weapon of mass destruction 3. The Irish (which Im part of btw) bombed England and killed loads of civs 4. We never cover up our past, We r very open with our past. 5. Hitler wanted a Empire like the British Empire but failed because of his greed. All together u cannot bad mouth someone in our country and our country for something u cannot get evidence for

[Elberiver11]

@jakthemak the genocidal terrorists is you.

[Elberiver11]

@jakthemak

Churchill hated Germans, he was a racist and aimed to kill as many innocent children and women as possible. In his own words:

"This war is not against Hitler or National Socialism but against the strength of the German people, which is to be smashed once and for all, regardless whether it is in the hands of Hitler or a Jesuit priest."

~Winston Churchill (Emrys Hughes, Winston Churchill, His Career in War and Peace p. 145)

[GuitarHeroRockStar98]

@Elberiver11 ooooooooooooooooooook did not no that . . . but hey they say u learn something new everyday

[jakthemak]

@Elberiver11 U say that but what about the "blitz" or do u forget a out that, Ur evil Hitler gave the order to murder millions of the British population and yet ur bombers still failed to destroy our monuments but still u killed millions of civilians. And yet u still call our ex pm a fat big for basically saving the world

[Elberiver11]

@jakthemak Churchill started the bombing war on Germany - the Germans bombed you back, moron. Learn history LOL

And certainly the Luftwaffe did not bomb "millions" of Britons LOL Stop telling us Mickymouse-TV show history lol lol

[Elberiver11]

@jakthemak saving the world? muaahahahahahaha !!!!

He left Britain bankrupt and he ruined your Empire, mate. Apart from the millions he killed, and even more millions he subjugated under Communist Dictatorship, stupid boy. You call a communist dictatorship under Churchill's friend Stalin "saving"? These people were enslaved by Churchill's friend under Dictatorship. Learn history, mate.

Without this wicked man, Europe would not have fallen into the hands of the Communist Dictator.

[mynameisntrosie]

@Elberiver11 Why have you come on this video to talk like this? This was an incredibly dark time for Britain, Churchill kept the country going when they had nothing left. 43,000 civilians died in the Blitz, and Britain needed a strong leader that made Britons believe their deaths were worth something. Also, Churchill and Stalin's alliance was one of convenience, and against a greater evil. Churchill was against communism, but said if forced, he would choose it over nazism.

[Elberiver11]

Which Blitz, the Berlin Blitz June 1940?

If your sick murderer Churchill had not started bombing Germany, you would not have been bombed back. The Germans waited until Sep. 1940 to retaliate, they gave Churchill over 20 Peace offers, but Churchill wanted war.

Your insane mad killer could have stopped the Blitz any day , by simply accepting Germany's peace offers. He rejected, because he wanted war. Say thanks to warcriminal Mr. Churchill.

And do not compare a few 40 000 to 1 Million.

[mynameisntrosie]

@Elberiver11 Also, if you're questioning Britain's alliance with Russia at this time, you should probably also be questioning their alliance with America. Do you realise when America finally joined the war and were stationed in Britain, they tried to impose the Jim Crow Laws because they didn't want white soldiers mixing with black ones? Ironic how closely the fascism they were fighting was mirrored in their own actions towards black people in their own country.

[mynameisntrosie]

@Elberiver11 And finally, your calling the communism that spread throughout Europe Churchill's fault? Britain was forced into a relationship with Russia because this was the only country left fighting against Germany. Also, however bad you consider communism to be, the systematic genocide of several races of people that was happening due to nazism was undeniably worse. Without this "wicked man" all Jews, Gypsies, homosexuals and people with disabilities would have been gassed or burnt alive.

[Elberiver11]

@mynameisntrosie oh no, Communism is not Churchill's fault. He never allied with Stalin. LOL

What kind of idiot are you? Churchill + Stalin + Roosevelt = THE ALLIES.

This wicked warcriminal Churchill helped Stalin subjugate half of Europe under Communist Dictatorship, you stupid little boy. Dont you own history books on your pathetic little island?

Churchill not only killed millions during the war, he also betrayed 2 million Kossaks who fought Stalin. Google OPERATION KEELHAUL.

[Elberiver11]

@mynameisntrosie Jews were burnt alive? hahahaha what kind of idiot are you? Jewish corpses were cremated, like is done i any English city, you moron.

If anyone burnt children and women alive, it was your sick mad killer Churchill, a warcriminal who hated Germans and tried to kill as many of them.

He started a Firestorm in Dresden on 13th February 1945 with PHOSPHOUR, eating into your skin and turning children and women into living torches. Over 500 000 refugees were in the city.

[Elberiver11]

@mynameisntrosie Google DRESDEN HOLOCAUST and click on images, you clueless dumbhead, and see the mountains of corpses of innocent children and women, burnt alive by your satanic mad killer Churchill.

Churchill and Roosevelt burnt over 1 Million alive in Dresden, Hamburg,. Tokyo, Cologne,. Nagasaki. Hiroshima and other axis cities.

Churchill This man was insane, an alcohol-addict, shitfaced already by morning. You Englishmen failed to bring this insane mad killer to justice. Pathetic.

[Elberiver11]

@mynameisntrosie oh, put a sock in it! Stuff your silly "jews" nonsense up your arse lol

I know, the Jews are "gods chosen people", and deserve special attention, right? What about the 3 Million German civilans you killed after the war was over? What about the 39 Million your friend dictator Stalin killed in Siberian Concentration camps like VORKUTA?

What about the Red Indians, exterminated by your British forefathers in 13 British colonies?

You British gangsters killed millions.

[Elberiver11]

@mynameisntrosie And what about the Irish Holocaust, when the British 8th regiment brutally slaughered 5.2 Million Irish people?

Another Holocaust, perpetrated by the English gangsters, when they invaded Ireland, robbed all food and killed all the Irish. Over 5.2 Million innocents murdered by your forefathers, not a Holocaust? Let's ask the Irish!

So shut up, stuff your "Jews"-Hollywood TV stuff wherever you prefer, and start dealing with your own Holocausts first.

[Elberiver11]

@mynameisntrosie ENGLAND put homosexuals into forced-labour camps. Ask OSCAR WILDE. Ever heard of him? You uncultured person, you do not know your own country's history.

ENGLAND exterminated the Red Indians. ENGLAND invaded Ireland. ENGLAND bullied the world. ENGLAND put Africans on English death ships. ENGLAND put africans in chains and called it "democracy". lol

And you dare point to the Germans? Stop insulting Germany, clean up your own dirty house. You wicked Englishmen killed millions.

[williamblair11]

Ahh...The good Ole' days when politicians wrote their own speeches!!!

Churchill would write a lot of his speeches in the bath.

[rotwart]

@berserker276 Idiot. Don't joke about Hitler. Do you know how many people lost their lives because of hi? Do you realise the panic you can cause by telling the world and especially the jews that he is actually alive? Think before you speak next time!

[rotwart]

@berserker276 I know, idiot. Thats why I said "Don't JOKE about Hitler," can you read? The point I made is do NOT joke about the murder of 6 million jews, you stupid fucking idiot. I'm glad you can laugh about genocide and mass murder, but each one of those people have a family. How would you like it if i went to your mother's funeral and made jokes about her death? Fucking asshole.

[rotwart]

@berserker276 You really are the dumbest fuck I have ever talked to. First you tell me you are joking about Hitler. Then I point out that it is inappropriate to joke about such things. Then you say oh, actually you didn't joke about Hitler and I am a dumbass for assuming you do. BUT YOU JUST SAID YOU DID JOKE ABOUT HIM YOU UTTERLY STUPID FUCK!!!! 

[berserker276]

@rotwart Alright just stop arguing and calm down now perhaps?

One of the Best quotes i've heard for Sir Winston Churchill...i can't remember of whom it was said or the exact words but a lady told him , "Sir if you were my husband i'd give you poison"

And he said " madam, if you were my wife i'd gladly take it...."

Class :)

[smilerboyboy]

@MegaPaul71 I remember being told that at school a few years ago. Brilliant!

There was also another comment made by some female, calling him fat. And he replied something like "I can lose weight, you my dear, will always be ugly."

LOL Legend

[geezer732]

@MegaPaul71 was lady astor i think

[buzzbaybear]

@MegaPaul71 Lady Astor: "If you were my husband I would put poison in your tea." Churchill: "If you were my wife I'd drink it!"

and on another occasion... Lady Astor : "Sir, you are drunk; very, very drunk."

Churchill: "Madame, you are ugly; very, very ugly. But I shall be sober in the morning."

[Jules7892]

Continueing,ALL GREEK People of the GREECE-HELLAS told me, that TRUE HELLAS GREECE DEMOCRACIES where the PEOPLE FULLY PARTICIPATE their Social-Economic needs with the Philosopher-Professors of PLATO,ARISTOTLE,etc.with FULL PEOPLE Participating in the Problems of Social-Economic Immeidiate Corrective Measures has NOT Existed Since the Beginning of A.D.Times&that Another Philosopher by the name of Isreal Palestine,JESUS CHRIST was trying to Re-Introduce the HELLAS-Democracies of Giving Socialism!!

[Jules7892]

Then I lived with GREEK-HELLAS DEMOCRACY People in my Upper House in CANADA, where the GREEKS invited Jules7892 for Supper to Talk and with very tiny amounts of Wine,We talked about the Athens,GREECE Alexander the GREAT GREECE HELLAS DEMOCRACIES. All the GREEKS at my Invited GREEK Supper,Tickanis,Kala Ici,Elathos GREEKS told Jules7892 that Since AlexanderThe Great Death in 323 B.C.E.The GREECE HELLAS DEMOCRACIES DIED too!GREECE HELLASDEMOCRACIES=Democracy by the PEOPLE for the PEOPLE Government!

[Jules7892]

Next day just AfterSchool as I knew my Christian Bible.I read to the Teacher many Statementsi.e.Jesus Christ saying=Give onto the Poor for it is NOT the fault of the Earth Poor People that Greedy Governments(refering to Capitalism.)that the Poor People of Earth are Victums of Greed!My Teacher,who was Christian to my Bible,was Sympathetic &said by His Control,I will NO longer be"Dententioned for Spreading Jesus CHRIST SOCIALISM"!The Teacher also told me that Capitalism is run by EVIL-FREEMASONS!!

[Jules7892]

Help even American and English Capitalists Defeat the NAZI-FASCIST Beast of Adolph Hitler. When Winston Chirchill, in even my Elementary Class Geography Grade. 4 Class of the Early 1970s,Saw the Socialist-Ally Major Ally with the Allies Painted "Black on the Atlas of Oxford Atlases"I realised as 10 year old Child that I Told my Teacher I"Completely Dis-Agreed with Painting the Socialist-Soviet-Russian-Feder­ation Nation"Black on the Atlas".Yes,I Got a Major"Detention for being a Socialist-Youth"!

[Jules7892]

Joseph Stalin was "DENOUNCED" by Nikita Chruschev & the Socialist-Communist Party of the U.S.S.R. Then a heard a "Winston Chirchill speech I NO longer agreed in Mr,(out went the word Sir. at any aquatance).Mr. Winston Chirchill called Socialism and Communism a "Black Evil Iron Curtain"!Maybe Capitalists do like such a statement?But I found that Statement very"Insulting-Provocative"I found it the END of Mr. Chirchill Painting the U.S.S.R. who was an"HONEST GENUINE ALLY to HELP Even Capitalists"!

[Jules7892]

Yes, Sir. Winston Chirchill was a "GREAT Man and a GREAT Leader"! I am in FULL Agreement with Sir. Winston Chirchill about Adolph Hitlers"Colossus Unberable WAR CRIMES by Adolph Hitler"!But I am Sorry,Stalin was a traitor to his own People,Please read on SOCIALISM of the Soviet Union,Vladimir Ilich LENIN"HATED"Joseph Stalin!LENIN called Stalin"A ruthless mis-behaved individual that does NOT make a Good Leader"!It is After WW2 when Nikita Khruschevcame toPower afterCriminal Stalin's Death in1953!

@letmeusethisnamenow _

[101TurnTable]

Gentlemen, war is an ugly business where all sides commit terrible acts in every war since the dawn of man, where ultimately everyday people young and old alike pay the highest cost. Ultimately, I'd rather have curchill in charge of britain than have hitler ruler of europe. I do not claim Churchill to be or not to be a racist, but hitler certainly was and I dont think society across europe would have progressed this far with hitler at the helm. I hope you all had a nice day :)

[letmeusethisnamenow]

well said 

[stephenkurti]

@101TurnTable Indeed 'war is an ugly business' yet this charming 33 degree MASON was closely behind it with th Rothschild. They invited him over to NY to show him what it's like to pull th plug on the stock-exhange to cause the 'great-depression'. As th mother of th Rothschilds used to say: 'if my sons don't want war there'll b no war'. This man served the interest of the JEWS, not th people of UK. The current british monarc is setup by th Rothschild 4JEWS not 4 the brits.

[MyOvenIsRacist]

@stephenkurti As someone with a brain, i don't have a clue what your talking about, much less care. I think i speak on behalf of the whole of Youtube when i say, shut up.

[RebelSonBand]

@101TurnTable Sir,I have to say,I totally agree with you.Mr.Churcill was by no means a democrat,as seen by his politics(or attempted politics)after the war.Mr.Churcill was indeed a racist and hostile towards anything not European.And he did not support legal claimes from UK working-class to get higher wages or other benefits.But never the less,he was so much better then herr.Hitler,I couldnt agree more.So to you Sir,I agree and I hope you have a very nice day..:)

[Bummercund]

Oh, it did work, I responded.

[Bummercund]

@Elberiver11 you can try to troll me but it won't work.  If it wasn't for Britain's stoic effort, the war may never have been won. I don't know where you got a million from, but how does it compare to world domination in intent, and 3 million jews murdered in effect, which is what he was fighting against?

[letmeusethisnamenow]

@Bummercund I don't expect you to like him because lets be fair you came on here knowing that you hate the man and was looking for an argument which you now have. Winston Churchill was a wonderful soldier, politician and all round British hero. He fought @ the battle of Omburman in 1896, he was taken prisoner during the Boer War whilst being a journalist and he commanded the last stronghold in ww2 from a tyrannical deluded and hate fed man who was essentially the cause of ww2 and approximately..

[letmeusethisnamenow]

@Bummercund 35 million dead.Now,the USA,Russia,France and Britain did invade Germany because this was the only way to stop Hitler and his regime.BUT they gave it back,in due time to Germany,now this is after you stepped out of line Twice,causing millions of deaths and committing mass genocide and heinous war crimes.Do you think wartime Germany would of just "given back" Europe,Africa, the Middle east?No. Winston Churchill and other free world leaders stopped a far worst future for the world

[Elberiver11]

How pathetic, to praise a sick insane warcriminal massmurderer like this fat pig Churchill. Fucking disgusting. 

[Elberiver11]

@germainiss Listen to the speeches of BENJAMIN FREEDMAN.

He was a New York Jew, a whistle-blower who warned the world of JEWISH BANKERS.

His speeches are forbidden in Germany under Allied occupation law.......but on youtube you can see them all. I do recomment it, its an eye-opener.

[Plastonick]

By "the low countries" are we talking about the Netherlands? (pays-bas in French).

[letmeusethisnamenow]

I actually haven't seen a youtube comment as ill informed, narrow-minded and uneducated in my life ! @Germainiss you need to stop festering over something that happened before your time and grow up. If you don't like britain and france then why on gods green earth are you watching this video? stop annoying people and leave these posts alone

[Elberiver11]

@letmeusethisnamenow It's funny, when you can point with your finger to the "bad germans", then you want to talk about it for hours, dont you? But funnily enough, when the spotlight is shiftet on your own, far worse British and American crimes, then it's "oh its so long ago"?

LMAO!

What an indecent country of liers you are, mate. Its not the question how long something is ago or not. It's the question whether the world still agrees with your British people writing a history of lies.

[letmeusethisnamenow]

@Elberiver11 I think your quite seede with hate and not very educated at all. Arguing with you would lead to nowhere as morons can not be taught or reasoned with. You are entitled to your own deluded views and if you actually took the time to read the comments I replied to and still insist on replying to me the way you do then I pity you and your unmeaning existence as a keyboard warrior. i bid to you, good-day from "the outside world" ;)

[Elberiver11]

@letmeusethisnamenow Churchill hated all Germans, he destroyed all our cities and our heritage, he stole our land and deported 14 Million people from their homes, murdering 2 million of them and helped Dictator Stalin to take half of Europe (the list of his heinous crimes is not finished) -

and now you expect me to love this criminal insane man?

Its funny you speak of "hate", while you praise and worsphip a wicked warcriminal who threw innocent children into a Firestorm alive.

[droidbait]

@Elberiver11 your first statement is wrong, it wasn't Britain who destroyed all your cities, only Dresden was destroyed in 1944 and that was in retaliation to the blitz, which had been on going since 1941. Stalin destroyed Berlin and German livelihood, but again in retaliation to what happened at Stalingrad. your second statement is again wrong that he helped Stalin takeover europe, as at the meeting in potsdam, he said that now the nazis had been destroyed they must destroy communism.

[droidbait]

@Elberiver11 no one listened to him, but he was eventually proven to be correct because of the events of the cold war. I personally believe that you should learn history and stop reading whatever twaddle through your rose-tinted nazi glasses

[Elberiver11]

@letmeusethisnamenow A Firestorm 3 miles hight,. that is. Started by Mister Winston Churchill, to deliberately burn as many innocent people to ashes as is possible.

And now you come up to me and praise a wicked massmurderer like this? And you call ME a hater? LMAO

My friend: i do not see myself praising and warcriminals or massmurderers.

But i see you doing that. Shame on you. Churchill was a racist, and it comes to little surprise you love him so much.

[goddamikickass]

@germainiss and I'd still rather live in Britain than in a country full of morally crippled, corrupted, evil bastards who saw the extermination of Jews, Gypsies, disabled people, Russians etc and didn't say a word, then to turn around and have the national amnesia you all came out with; you make me sick. The Germans wouldn't dare stir again.

[Elberiver11]

@goddamikickass Stop your silly "Jews"-stuff, if anyone makes us sick its your silly Hollywood-TV show stuff.

Why dont you British people stop lying about your evil history? You murdered far more Red Indians, Blacks, Kenyans and even millions of innocent IRISH people, so stop besmirching my homeland, you fucker.

Germany is a great country, we are the best country in Europe because WE do not cover up our past, like you fraudulent British villains do.

[Elberiver11]

@goddamikickass The Germans would not dare stir again what, a war? HAHAHAH says an ENGLANDER!

But you would dare, wouldnt you? Who invaded Iraq and killed over 1 Million innocent Iraqis there, you racist piece of filth?

That was you wicked Britishs and the Americans again, wasn't it?

And if anyone is guilty of turning a Polish-German war into a world war, its your fat pig Churchill, a wicked insane killer who dragged the whole world into it.

You should have hanged this man for warcrimes.

[Elberiver11]

@goddamikickass Nobody started more wars on innocent people, and murdered more innocent millions, than the British Empire did.

And you, with a dark, murderous history like that, dare pointing to us? LMAO !

hahaha! Can't stop laughing, hahaha!

[goddamikickass]

@Elberiver11 The British Empire wasn't such a tyrant when it saved you from Napoleon.

"what have the Romans ever done for us?!"

[michaelcarr09]

@germainiss

I can't even bring myself to argue with that. You are clearly either a moron or brainwashed to the point where you can't even reason an argument, you say state deluded incorrect opinion as if they were fact. You think that because you think it, its right.

“Reason is not automatic. Those who deny it cannot be conquered by it. Do not count on them. Leave them alone.”

[Bummercund]

I got chills at the end.

[Elberiver11]

@Bummercund Why? Because you thought of all the innocent children and women, burnt to ashes by this warcriminal Churchill alive?

Altogether one Million children and women, brutally murdered by Churchill, thats not bad, is it. ? 

[dksafc1]

@germainiss its fairly simple u ignorant nazi fuck, we still fight for whats good and right, and we will always be a better nation than you, your once vaunted army would now rather not enter conflict but let everyone else fight the battle against world terrorism BRITAIN is great now keep slapping each other u german cunt

[Elberiver11]

@dksafc1 You are a British Nazi fuck yourself..

YOU started war on us, YOU helped the Polish Terrorists steal the houses of 1 Million German people in the 1930ies, YOU helped occupy our cities with Polish military long time before WW II, and YOU

started the war on us - not the other way round, mate.

All your British politicians, who had got us into this war, should have been tried and hanged for warcrimes.

And your fat ugly pig Churchill you should have hanged him the highest!

[michaelcarr09]

@germainiss

Hopefully you are trolling. I take the view that this was one of the most justified wars to ever take place (for the allied forces). This was about freedom, some wars are fought over land greed or petty differences but world war 2 was different. The Britain empire and France had no choice, war was the only option. Hitler would have destroyed the world. It would have been a horrible place, where genetic defects are bred out and history is destroyed. Nazism was disgusting.

[typacsk]

Goddamn trolls

[spongebo13]

@germainiss HAH! you mean whilst Germany invaded the rest of the world? Being British myself, I, alike many other Britons including Sir Winston Churchill, would rather hang myself than watch the world fall under Nazi rule. It is much better to fight a war for freedom and lose than to not fight for freedom and be enslaved. And due to this spirit in Churchill's Britain, the British Empire and her Allies were victorious and the Nazi regime were defeated and will never return. You're welcome world.

[1tjos]

@germainiss will do better Britain reigned for hundereds of years we only past the baton about 70 years ago.

[1tjos]

@germainiss Yes its true Hitler wanted to become allies with Britain and the Americans can be bullies but how could we of stood by and let them comit genocide we were the power of the time it was up to use what happened and i hope if the time comes again we will do right thing, and the reason the Americans are bullies is because we made them that way when Great Britain was at its height we policed the world forcing upon it are ideals and America are a new country when the get experiance they...

[ProDegiaque]

@spongebo13 Ahh, forgot;)

Thing that really gets me is that Britain invented so much of the modern era but our government had no plan to keep manufacturing for the last 40 years:/

And @germainiss , I'm guessing ur not watching the Olympics next year?;D

[spongebo13]

@germainiss No you fuckwit, read up on the Atlantic Charter -the Allies had to agree to its terms at the end of the war, although it originated in 1941. Roosevelt demanded Churchill give up India and countries in Africa but Churchill refused and in the end Roosevelt had to back Churchill for fear of being alone in the war however Truman demanded it again and Atlee onwards gave in. And your statement "Germany holding the EU together" is bullshit. Britain and Germany do it and France gets the say!

[ProDegiaque]

@germainiss

Without Britain you wouldn't be on this stupid video making dumb shit comments. We invented mass production, internal combustion engine, radio, the light bulb (at around the same time as the yanks), the jet engine and THE COMPUTER... DURING WWII. without Britain, you would be in a mud hut frankly...

[spongebo13]

@ProDegiaque dont forget the world wide web, even though the yanks believe they invented the internet (which is mostly true) but it was Britain that put the most effort in by practically inventing web pages.

[spongebo13]

@germainiss I think someone needs to stop reading the daily mail and realise that Churchill had no choice but to surrender the Empire. the US wanted it gone and it was one of the terms that Churchill was FORCED to accept at the end of the war.

[Beowulf1ca]

And I suppose you thing that the US is the Number 1 nation in the world? well, currently my friend, no offense but USA is SO deep in debt right now, it could kiss its own ass without help. Be that as it may, I believe strongly that Great Britain is still as strong as it was at the turn of the previous century, perhaps not in muscle, but in human will, perseverance, and endurance, and I say GOD BLESS GREAT BRITAIN. (from Canada by the way)

[AbStractWARior]

@germainiss you never asked a question dick head. you call britain a 3rd world nation? do you understand what that means? it means not aligned with capatalism or NATO. Britain is in NATO. it is 1st world. And from being from Canada, no matter where you come from, if you live here and love being here, you have the right to be called Canadian. Churchhill led the country through the blitz and the war.. and the british empire lasted in essence from 1497-1997. 500 years, Hitler's lasted 10.

[AbStractWARior]

@germainiss my race? Being British isn't a race. on that note i am Canadian. Doo you think there is going to be a 4th reich you stupid neo-nazi?

[Dakkirby]

@germainiss Mate shut the fuck up you Nazi piece of shit. Hitler was a psychotic evil twat who has left a scar on German history. I hope you're only pissing about, if not you're a disgusting human being that deserves to be dead with Hitler.

[AbStractWARior]

@germainiss can't tell if trolling or just very stupid

[abrkPL]

@PROkiller16 @shanklyy01 @neimencasimir ... Dear God... We are quarrelling about numbers (in my opinion insignificant), while we should be happy, for perhaps this weeks saved the world!!! The same way Wellington saved the world from being conquered by Napoleon Bonaparte in the Battle of Waterloo. None is saying now that Germans had their contribution...

I have to say though that Poles are very often overusing British hospitality (note that I'm Pole myself living in the United Kingdom.)

[iilwjcanc]

Thank God for giving us the right brave men and women when we needed them most. **** YOU HITLER!

[MuppetShowManiac]

it's incredible to think that exactly 71 years ago that these words could have shown the graditude of a great nation to a few hundred pilots and sailors.

[whitesocklad]

Sir Winston was a great man and a great human who understood humanity in the terms of his own age...he was wrong many times in his political approach, but, at the end of the day without him and without all the brave people who fought and died and suffered this imperfect world would be so much more imperfect....its not about nationality, its about the courage to stand up to what you know is wrong and cruel and to fight with all your might for what you perceive to be right, for a better world

[bruce6821]

thank god for churchhill

[niemencasimir]

First, sorry for my english. Then let me tell you a little thing : during this battle 10% of RAF pilots were Polish. 2000 german planes have been destroyed and 1000 of them by the polish pilots. Their role is rarely mentioned. Thanks

[lotsofcooki3s]

@niemencasimir The poles did do very well in the Battle of Britain! And as such, regardless of what stupid politicians have to say, the Poles will always be welcome in Britain.

[shankly01]

@niemencasimir ....LOL, the numbers get larger everyday! They never even came close to destroying 1000 planes. The Germans lost between 1650 and 1750 planes during the battle, depending on which source you use. The Poles accounted for about 12% (200). Polish Squadron 303 accounted for 126 kills, 17 of which were accredited to Josef Frantisk, who wasn't even Polish, he was Czech. Anyone who knows anything about the Battle of Britain is well aware of the Polish contribution, but don't exaggerate.

@niemencasimir Sorry mate, I've got 769 destoryed here. Your point is void.

See, you're not British, I am. I know the Poles helped, but to say they counted for half of all RAF kills and were only 10% is like saying Adolf Hitler took down the entire Russian Army in WWI.

@niemencasimir During The Battle of Britain we were out numbered 3 to 1 without the help of the polish, canadian ( and the rest of the commonwealth) we wouldn't of had enough pilots for even those odds even some americans joined us by deserting there army what we did was right, if you can stand by and watch what Hitler ( not germany) did you're no better than he is. (The germans didnt want to fight the British and Christmas day proved that we can out the trenches and played football).

@1tjos

The Christmas truce was world war 1. Hitler was very good at speech's, a lot of Germans believed in what they were fighting for. Why would there be trenches in an air battle dude?
