Winston Churchill's Islam "quote": Islam to a man is like rabies to a dog

[BobNJ1960]

His quote is spot on.

From the articles, it seems that this was simply a passing fancy. Of course he would have been interested--Britain controlled that part of the world and he was involved militarily and politically. Of course he would have had Muslim friends. And, as the articles, state, people go through different stages and there would have been a stage when he was first attracted and it seemed new and exotic to him.

He was for England and would have been appalled at what's happening lately.

They are used to oppress, to control, and to excuse lots of bad behavior.

You can read it in Sir Winston Churchill's book “The River War: An Account of the Reconquest of the Sudan.” 1899.

Yes, it is a true quote.

Here is a pdf version of the book you can read for yourself.

Very recently a Brit faced court for quoting Sir Winston Churchill as the book is now considered hate speak. True, Google it.

So Snopes is lying?


I mean, I dislike Snopes, they are too political, but I keep being told by boot licking progressives that it is the center for all that is right and true in the world.

So... I am wondering... What is your say?
