Thank you very much David Freeman for standing up for the truth. It gets incredibly annoying if not maddening to hear these myths, misstatements or half-truths continually misrepresented as facts. The time is long over-due for Churchillians to passively sit by and say or do nothing at perpetual falsehoods. Moreover, historians and Churchillians do have a moral obligation to insist on accuracy.
