Conservatives do you agree with this Winston Churchill quote?

Question

“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.” -Churchill to Palestine Royal Commission, 1937

Just asking

Answer 1

No, that's silly. No race does anything bad to another race. Individuals can do good or bad, but a race as a whole can't. Some individuals did good things to the native inhabitants, some individuals did bad, you have to judge on and individual basis.

Answer 2

Churchill also said in 1939 that "far from being persecuted, the Arabs have crowded into the country and multiplied till their population has increased more than even all world Jewry could lift up the Jewish population”.



The British governor in the Sinai also reported tremendous illegal immigration from jordan and Syria between 1922-1936. In an Era were immigrants could just walk from one country to another, no border, no checkpoints, The governor of the Syrian district of Hauran, Tewfik Bey El Hurani, admitted in 1934 that in a single period of only a few months over 30,000 Syrians from Hauran had moved to Palestine.



This has been going on since time began. One group supplants another. Roman legions paved the way for farmers in Europe. American settlers came with plows and the Great Plains became wheat fields. The era of migratory American Indian tribes standing on a mountain top and claiming everything from horizon to horizon ended when the white man came with better weapons. Nobody is the original owner of any of it. One thing that never fails to amaze me is the popular myth that Palestinians were there first. Both groups, Jews and Arabs are descended from Abraham, but the Jews have roots in the land going back thousands of years farther than the Arabs. Both groups left the land and returned at the same time less than 200 years ago. Like all modern disputes, neither side got everything they wanted. The Arabs got Jordan and the Jews got Israel. The Jews accepted that, the Arabs fought it and began the popular myth that they were there first.

Answer 3

I don't agree...Where did the Red Indians get the land? Probably took it from another group...because they were stronger and higher grade...



The fact remains that Life isn't fair...and you cannot make it fair...



But it was a nice troll

Answer 4

Yes, because it is true and not just in the 2 examples given, but all throughout history.

Answer 5

Churchill was very aggressive it's been found out recently he would have declared WW3 if he had been kept in power. So, no I don't agree, it's like defending Holocaust because jews were weak to Hitler. It's logic like this which has bought us into so many messes in the past.

Answer 6

Stone age people were supplanted throughout the world. Deal with it. If you want to celebrate the stone age, or BE a stone age person, just go do it, and leave everyone else out of it. To be authentic, you will need to die by the age of 30. Don't forget that part.
