How Churchill fought the Pashtuns of Pakistan

[Psychic]

He proved his mettle as a soldier in various expeditions and leadership during WW2.

He was just the prime minister during WW2. You can give him credit for leading the British nation but he did not lead any military expedition and neither did he fight any battle. That man himself was a beast who killed 3 million Indians(Bengalis) in an artificial famine and that same man ordered firebombing of German cities in 1945 in which, more people died than in US bombings of Japanese cities. @Desert Fox would you like to add?

Interesting thing is that all young Churchil did in 1897 campaign was observation and commentary, he didnt kill a single person.......

Pakistani Pashtun blood and fire freed the Pakistani land of British occupation.

They didnt, no armed insurgency was involved in Pakistan movement in the frontier. Lets not exaggerate.

Pashtuns of present day Pakistan didnt free even an inch of their land from British occupation. This 1897 uprising , in which Churchil was present, was itself against Durand line demarcation and was a disorganized, haphazard and undisciplined attempt across the frontier to eliminate the British occupation........the sword waving tribesmen with out-dated jehzails were cut down in thousands by deadly new breech loading weapons of British

The sword waving tribes men with outdated jezail reminded me the fate of Northomton company in Sarunsar affair during Tirah expedition. After that British command never deployed the British company as rare guard.... They had to deployed Gorkha & Sikh regiment as rare guard throughout the expedition. And in British accounts, the tribesmen were on the heels of Gorkha's and chasing them down the Bara river, where British army had to left hundreds of camp servants, Kahars and animals while suffering severe casualties. Avenging that British army entered in brigade size to capture cattle and shepherds, trapped again in Sheen kamar . ... the prey was 37th Sikh regiment that time. .. their most celebrated commander Colonel Haughton had fallen with number of other officers and Sikh soldiers. .. the British had to requested the tribesmen to return the corpses... and the tribesmen agreed and took it themselves towards them. The Dargai sar's battle was too fought with jezails and swords which was the very initial blow to British forces in Tirah expedition.

Churchil was not sent on Tirah expedition in 1897 perhaps to avoid strain on food resource. which was not the ccase as they had found plenty of potatoes and walnut in deserted houses. The English had to deploy Gorkha and Sikh soldiers as rare- guard as they were part of imperial forces and it was a ligitimate decision on part of Britishers given the risk or vulnerability attached with the task.

Alongside that, that scum also advocated the use of chemical and poison gas bombs on Kurds, Iraqis, and the "savage" tribes of Northern india to suppress the rebellions there.

BRITISH USE OF CHEMICAL WEAPONS IN IRAQ, KILLING KURDS IN THE OLD DAYS

War is brutal.

Churchill was a true British warrior by the way. He proved his mettle as a soldier in various expeditions and leadership during WW2.

Warrior my @$$. The guy never fought on the front lines. A true son of the soil fights alongside his men, shares in their pain and in their glory. Churchill was nothing but a drunkard, a mass murderer, and instigator of war.

True warriors like Leon Degrelle are the unsung heroes.

Hmm, thanks for the input.

I will look into his history some more.
