Victor makes a mistake in attributing Gallipoli to Churchill. The recent biography of Churchill makes it very clear that he was willing to front for the idea of a second front, but his choice would have been in the Baltic or even in the North Sea. And rescuing Russia was a vital concern. As we learned to our regret from 1918 until 1992.
Dr. Hansen rattles off names and places that seem from the original series of Star Trek but transcends the historical contexts to the current situations. Few others can do this. Bravo!
