If I, a white man, not unlike Churchill, carried out the exact same attack on the statue, for the same reasons, would it be labelled as racial hate?
Hmmm, I think not. One interesting quote from his white paper though, which many today seem to forget ...
"They would draw attention to the fact that the terms of the Declaration referred to do not contemplate that Palestine as a whole should be converted into a Jewish National Home, but that such a Home should be founded `in Palestine.' In this connection it has been observed with satisfaction that at a meeting of the Zionist Congress, the supreme governing body of the Zionist Organization, held at Carlsbad in September, 1921, a resolution was passed expressing as the official statement of Zionist aims "the determination of the Jewish people to live with the Arab people on terms of unity and mutual respect, and together with them to make the common home into a flourishing community, the upbuilding of which may assure to each of its peoples an undisturbed national development."
But they had to cross the literal line, repeatedly, and steal land, burn down homes, steal homes, destroy crops, block water sources, and show no respect at all.
And here we are, 100 years later, with everybody hating each other and killing each other, and blaming each other for "starting it". And ... people wonder why so many hate the British Empire! Onward Christian soldiers ...
