Yeah, Churchill sure made his fair share of mistakes, and I'm certainly no fan. Especially after his reluctance to release the Australian Divisions from the Middle East in WWII ( after Rommel had been defeated for the last time ) so they could return home to defend against the Japanese onslaught. But, if he hadn't of been around in WWII, tell me another Brit who was capable of rallying a dispirited nation and putting them on the road to victory ? I don't think anyone would disagree - that he was a "leader of his nation"
