That they elected not to do so, combined with Churchill's advocacy of the use of poisoned gas, kicks Britain in the toys from an historically anti racist perspective. Griffin is seeking to challenge people's perception to the point that they question the sincerity of any British government when it comes to racism, imperialism etc.

Additionally his "I have trouble with the numbers" explanation last night is a direct reference to a row currently taking place between various secular elements of judaism. He is using their actual terminology and playing on the far right of judaism in relation to repatriation.

This guy is nowhere near as stupid as the mainstream would like to have us believe, nor are those who are coaching him. Last night taught us that much at least.
Insightful and informative as ever ... thanks.

I think there are further issues that bear examination there, although they would be beyond the current topic (availability of resources for raiding death camp supply lines, for example ... the mission would have been morally highly desirable but of limited strategic value at a time when every bomb, bullet, spitfire and Lancaster was vital).

I'm not sure how clever Griffin's strategy is though. Churchill was not a saint, any more than any other man, but nevertheless that's the current popular view of him, and understandably so. Making him out to be a white supremacist of the Nick Griffin kind is only going to inflame opinion.
