Churchill’s Speech That Changed World War IIAdded:
This man saved Europe from its darkest moment, then turned his back [music] while 3 million people starved to death.
It's 1943.
Bengal, India. A famine is spreading across the region. Families collapse in the streets. Children cry over bodies of their parents. Villages empty overnight.
The dying are everywhere, but the granaries are full. Ships leave Indian ports every week, not for the starving, but for the war. London receives the desperate requests for aid and refuses every single one. When asked to send wheat to Bengal, he says India is starving because [music] Indians breed like rabbits. When the Red Cross appeals for help, he blocks the shipment. 3 million dead, not from nature, [music] from a decision made in London by a man who never missed a meal. The same man the world celebrates as a savior. The man [music] who let Bengal starve was Winston Churchill.
