I wouldn't doubt for a second that it may have been Churchill's opinion at one point - but there's a significant gap between opinion and policy.
For an 'investigative journalist' it appears that the author has much investigating yet to do. "Maier said: 'Churchill had been a great historian of warfare. He saw the last great cavalry charge during the First World War and championed the development of tanks'." I'm not convinced that many historians would consider that the great battles of the First World War included Omdurman.
