Churchill was definitely a racist and a killer, and that list of his atrocities and would-be atrocities is chilling. I object however, to the inclusion of the firebombing of Dresden in that list. The Germans were an enemy in the second World War they started, and breaking the spirit of an enemy is a valid and viable strategy. In short, if you don’t want to be firebombed, don’t try to exterminate millions of innocent people and take over Europe, twice. Starving Indians because you don’t like them, or proposing to gas people is not the same thing as attacking an aggressor in a war.
