Winston Churchill: Poison Gas Quote

Winston Churchill wasn't a hero. To the contrary, the man was a genocidal pig. If you're offended by this I suggest that you spend less time drinking tea and more time reading. What follows is a secret memoranda that he wrote that supported the use of poison gas against the native Arab tribesmen.
I do not understand this squeamishness about the use of gas. We have definitely adopted the position at the Peace Conference of arguing in favour of the retention of gas as a permanent method of warfare. It is sheer affectation to lacerate a man with the poisonous fragment of a bursting shell and to boggle at making his eyes water by means of lachrymatory gas. I am strongly in favour of using poisoned gas against uncivilised tribes. The moral effect should be so good that the loss of life should be reduced to a minimum. It is not necessary to use only the most deadly gasses: gasses can be used which cause great inconvenience and would spread a lively terror and yet would leave no serious permanent effects on most of those affected.
