"She does attack the revisionist view of famine History."
You've been told what her attacks on the 'Revisionist view"' are - she says exactly what it is and I've pointed it out to you
"You were all wrong".
Don't you find the constant repetition of this disturbing, even from your own point of view?
All you have ever said is "Britain didn't do it" - how could you possible say anything else never having been interested enough to read a book on the subject?
By the way - did you know that Christine Kinealy has been compared to Mrs Cecil Woodham Smith the "revisionist"
This (critical) review put her point of view perfectly - don't know enough on the subject to make my mind up one way or the other
but it does outline her approach to revisionism pretty well.
You're a jingoistic idiot, bur please keep it up - I don't start work for a couple of hours
