00:09:10.730 --> 00:09:14.289
And<00:09:10.909><c> many</c><00:09:11.090><c> have</c><00:09:11.350><c> puzzled</c><00:09:11.889><c> over</c><00:09:12.470><c> why</c><00:09:13.110><c> it</c><00:09:13.389><c> was</c><00:09:13.649><c> that</c><00:09:13.929><c> Churchill</c>

00:09:21.789 --> 00:09:28.009
Winston<00:09:22.629><c> Churchill</c><00:09:23.470><c> changed</c><00:09:24.509><c> his</c><00:09:25.049><c> mind</c><00:09:25.830><c> concerning</c><00:09:26.769><c> Israel.</c>

00:09:29.669 --> 00:09:33.169

00:09:35.370 --> 00:09:39.429
He<00:09:35.590><c> was</c><00:09:36.610><c> making</c><00:09:37.129><c> sure</c><00:09:37.610><c> that</c><00:09:38.029><c> the</c><00:09:38.470><c> agreement</c><00:09:38.889><c> was</c><00:09:39.110><c> being</c>

00:09:40.070 --> 00:09:43.690
so<00:09:40.549><c> that</c><00:09:40.690><c> there</c><00:09:40.789><c> was</c><00:09:41.009><c> the</c><00:09:41.470><c> supply</c><00:09:42.009><c> of</c><00:09:42.389><c> the</c><00:09:42.649><c> armaments</c><00:09:42.950><c> necessary</c><00:09:43.450><c> for</c>

Israel's<00:09:44.269><c> survival.</c>

00:09:44.730 --> 00:09:50.629
But<00:09:45.389><c> then</c><00:09:45.590><c> he</c><00:09:45.750><c> changed</c><00:09:46.950><c> and</c><00:09:49.210><c> was</c><00:09:49.389><c> pro</c><00:09:49.690><c>-Arab.</c>

00:10:05.830 --> 00:10:10.990
And<00:10:05.950><c> so</c><00:10:06.049><c> whatever</c><00:10:06.330><c> we</c><00:10:06.529><c> may</c><00:10:06.850><c> or</c><00:10:07.070><c> may</c><00:10:07.289><c> not</c><00:10:07.450><c> think</c><00:10:07.649><c> of</c><00:10:07.909><c> the</c><00:10:08.309><c> politics</c><00:10:08.929><c> of</c><00:10:09.190><c> Margaret</c><00:10:09.490><c> Thatcher</c><00:10:09.830><c> in</c><00:10:10.070><c> England,</c>

00:10:11.509 --> 00:10:15.769
