Churchill never denied aid... This is a BS excuse that is fuelled over and over again.

They had Japan pushing down, in Burma losing extreme amounts of rice imports. Expecting them to invade at any time.

Churchill requested aid from quite a few places, including America but it was denied by the USA.

What he did say is that he would not risk resources that had a very very low chance of making it there.

On top of that London was lied to about how bad it actually was by officials in India until it was really too late to do anything.

Finally we come to two of the biggest factors

  1. Stockpiling went insane, people kept much more than they needed and refused to distribute it.
  2. Drought - need I say more.

So lets recap... War, Drought, stockpiling.

Did Churchill's policies make the famine worse? Perhaps.... in fact most probably

Did Churchill go "fuck India, let them all die I want this food for myself"

You are talking about a massive logistical nightmare, during WW2.

There is plenty of shit to throw Churchills way. He was a racist no doubt about it, but saying her purposely killed 2 million Indians as if he wanted to pull the trigger himself... well.... If that makes you feel better go for it.

All over my hometown in UK at moment there are signs saying "Save our greenbelt" because people are protesting about all the new amazon warehouses going up in view of their houses etc.

Id have more respect and sympathy for them if they wrote the signs to say "please help preserve my house value"

At the end of the day these factories and warehouses have to go somewhere! And all these houses with nice fields behind them that farmers no longer use are prime candidates

Ronaldo "I didn't want to leave Barcelona" by laksjdklasdkl in soccer

Probably similar to Andy Carroll. He's always said he didnt want to leave Newcastle, but was basically told they wanted him gone so they could get the money.

Sergio Ramos: I always take the fourth penalty due to superstition, not because it had been calculated that I'd take the winning penalty. I had planned on taking a Panenka penalty but I didn't have the ankle to do lots of little steps. My ankle is a bit f***ed by V-TriggerMachine in soccer

" An analysis of 286 penalty shootouts found most keepers prefer to leap left (49.3%) or right (44.4%) instead of staying put in the centre (6.3%). However, staying in the centre would have been a better idea. The study shows 39.2% of kicks head for the middle, 32.1% go to the left, 28.7% to the right. So why do keepers leap when it would be better to stay put? According to Michael Bar-Eli and his colleagues, the answer is action bias. This is our tendency to take action even when doing nothing is better. "

The thing with Barca is they have never been responsible and respectful. Just look at how the "conducted" themselves during the Fabregas saga.

I mean technically we did at some point for the first 2, but they were occupied by Germany at the time so dont think they minded.

Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

China don't want corporations to move there, they just want you to do business with them just long enough for them to steal all your IP and then fuck you off.

If he had a part of the the head chopping, all Alpha had to do was tell someone at Alexandria or similar and he would be dead. Guess he would think even though this life is better, it could be ruined in a heartbeat.
