Not to worry. The British and French will have their backs. :)

It is useful to see how ineffectual statesmen were in the past, now knowing the catastrophe that would result.

This demonstrates where the ineffectual policies of current western leaders may well lead us, and soon!

Yes, and in light of that, this quote is rather extraordinarily ironic:

“Those noises you could hear tonight were sounds of blinkers falling from the British Ministers’ eyes,” said one wise observer. This was particularly true of Lord Halifax himself, who had some of his generous illusions dispelled at the time of his visit to Germany in November, but apparently he lost the last of them today.

It's always difficult for fundamentally decent folks to understand and react to evil....
