The iron curtain Winston Churchill referred to?
The Iron Curtain symbolized dividing of Europe into two isolated parts:
- Russia and her satellite countries, which formed military Warsaw Pact and economic Council for Mutual Economic Assistance
- democratic counties of Western Europe which formed North Atlantic Treaty Organization (with USA) and European Community
Winston Churchill use words "iron curtain" during his speech on 5 March 1946, at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri:
"
From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic an "iron curtain" has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia; all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are subject, in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and in some cases increasing measure of control from Moscow.
"
He said an "iron curtain" has descended across the continent.
This was taken from a speech that he made on March 5th 1946 in Fulton Missouri and referring to the fact that the Soviet Union had occupied most of Eastern Europe and the citizens of the occupied countries were not allowed to travel to the west and vice versa. What he actually said was, 'From Strettin on the Baltic to Trieste on the Adriatic, an Iron Curtain has come down across the Continent'. Incidentally, he wasn't Prime Minister at the time as he had unbelievably lost the election in 1945 - but that's democracy.

Pros and cons of Winston churchill fighting against Hitler?
I assume that this question refers to Churchill's leadership in World War 2. Strong points * A sense of mission - the absolute need to defeat Nazism, 'whatever the cost'. * A sense that Britain and the British Empire and Commonwealth had the same mission. * Pugnacious, a fighter by instinct. * Pro-American. * Untainted by appeasement. * Ability to hold the nation together. * Ability to delegate. * Outstanding orator. Problem areas * Failure to keep Arthur Harris (C-in-C) RAF Bomber Command under control. To a large extent Harris was allowed to run his own irrational and extremely costly own little war. * Sometimes appointed second rate commanders. * Probably had little real understanding of ordinary working-class people.
