Churchill made many famous speeches.
1940 was before any of the methods of mass murder were created. Many did perish in the ghettos due to starvation and disease, numbers no doubt did reach the thousands.
Winston Churchill was probably one of the biggest fans of the Lend-Lease Act. Britain was desperately short of weapons, ammuntion, vehicles, and equipment in 1940, and before the Act the United States had just been selling Britain as many weapons as it could afford. After the act was passed, Britain could essentially lease military equipment from the U.S. without having to immediately pay for it, boosting their forces quickly.
