A second important lesson is this: The occupied always prevail in the end, because they are there forever and the occupier one day will go home. It may take 50 years, which is how long we stayed in the Philippines, but that is not much time in history.

First , who writes history? The winners do.
His second important lesson.....well the Brits have occupied Ireland for 800 years and there is still no sign of the evil doers leaving.
