Where did you get that from Sloniksp?
Didn't sound right to me either I'm afraid.
I recalled the quote as a diary entry relating to Pearl Harbour as well. It would perhaps be odd for him to use the same rather significant phrase twice... but then he was quite an odd man.

Cheers,
Adam.

van poop,

I know the pearl harbor phrase that you are referring to. There was a documentary on the russian channel about WW2 and many people were interviewed including german soldiers, colonels and even members of churchills cabinet. That quote was taken from that program. I wish i could find more about it though, havent been lucky enough yet.


But i totally understand your skepticism.......


The original quote where Churchill got it from was from Bismark who told Wilhelm that Germany could not fight a 2 front war.
