Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) on Monday appeared on War Room With Steve Bannon on the right-wing propaganda network Real America's Voice and delivered a grotesque revisionist history lesson of the actions of Italian mercenary Christopher Columbus.
In his minute-long rant, Giuliani fired off a series of demonstrably false and outright racist remarks about the encounters that Columbus had with indigenous populations at the end of the fifteenth century:
Columbus is probably the first hero and there's no evidence that he did any of these things. In fact, most of the atrocities they're talking about occurred thirty years after he left. If anything, he was a, he was, he was benevolent. He tried very, very hard to avoid the wars that went on. But let, let, I mean, look. The people he brought over with him, they weren't saints. They were soldiers. But the people there were living in the third world, including a third world of violence where, where they scalped each other and killed each other and raped each other. This wasn't a civilization he came to. This was a third, fourth-world country. They had no idea of what they were facing. Columbus did everything he could to control it. It got out of control forty years later and he's being blamed for it. And this history is only like ten years old.
