Winston Churchill

The Bigot

Churchill is widely admired in the Westfor his leadership and determination

against the Nazis

Churchill’s views on different races:

On Kurds

“I am strongly in favor of using poisoned gas

against uncivilized tribes…(which)would

spread a lively terror.”

On Indians (South Asia)

“I hate Indians. They are a beastly people

with a beastly religion.”

On Islam

“How dreadful are the curses which

Mohammedanism [sic] lays on its votaries!”

“No stronger retrograde force [than Islam] exists

in the world…Mohammedanism is a militant

and proselytizing faith. It has already spread

throughout Central Africa, raising fearless

warriors at every step…”

On Gandhi

It is alarming and nauseating to see Mr Gandhi, a

seditious Middle Temple lawyer, now posing as a

fakir of a type well known in the east, striding half

naked up the steps of the viceregal palace, while

he is still organizing and conducting a campaign of

civil disobedience, to parlay on equal terms with

the representative of the Emperor-King.

Gandhi…

“ought to be lain bound hand and foot at

the gates of Delhi and then trampled on by

an enormous elephant with the new Viceroy

seated on its back.”

On Jews

“The central fact which dominates the

relations of Jew and non-Jew is that the Jew

is ‘different.’ He looks different. He thinks

differently. He has a different tradition and

background. He refuses to be absorbed.”

On Native Americans

“I do not admit… that a great wrong has

been done to the Red Indians of America,

or the black people of Australia… by the

fact that a stronger race, a higher grade

race… has come in and taken its place.”

On Native Americans

“I do not admit… that a great wrong has

been done to the Red Indians of America,

or the black people of Australia… by the

fact that a stronger race, a higher grade

race… has come in and taken its place.”
