Do you think there was a viable course of action for him to take that would have avoided war?

Don't open pandora's box! (It's full of hot air)

I agree don't open the Greek box upon the world with all of the curses will come out then Pandora will have the last laugh

If you need a leader in War time it's Churchill, no War you don't need him a bulldog of a man,
but unfortunately in his time in power, a typical Tory he's sent in the solders against striking
miners he called them dogs,! a great man in War needs must at the time.

I do not think saturation bombing of civilians is anything to be considered admirable.

Needs must at the time what you must remember, at the time Hitler was exterminating Jews, nothing
is really admirable in War,but standing by doing nothing is a none starter.
In Wars lots of civilians get killed, as we speak civilians are being killed in the Middle east,! nothing
changes, lets face it Churchill had a dirty job to do but SOME ONE had to do it.
I have no problems with what had to be done in WW2, it may not be admirable but it was necessary.!

saturation bombing is indeed nothing to be proud of I do not get any satisfaction out of honoring those who carry out saturation bombing

I've always wondered how the brittons felt during those time, with constant air raids, running everytime at the blasts of sirens, and when you come out, that part of the city is in rubbles. It must have been really terrible and devastating...but at least, there was the great Winston there to reassure you that everything was going to be okay... You folks should be really thankful that you weren't living in those times...
