Default Re: Was Churchill overrated?

Of course the winners can tell the story the way they want afterwards, but even with his faults you can ask " who could have saved the world from Hitler other than Churchill especially in 1940 and onwards?" I believe his stubborness was the key that united the people of Britain and also FDR, especially the Attack on Mers-el-Kébir as I have read about it and FDR´s response.
