I appreciate your posts.
While the rest of Europe debated and mulled, Hitler acted.
There are, of course, lots of similarities with how Iraq was handled and how Iran is currently being handled.
Your posts show that things can get a lot worse, real quick.
Depends on how you define "quick." Germany had been moving quite obviously in this direction since at least 1935 (the Rhineland crisis) with a series of overt violations of the Treaty of Versailles ... and the allies neglected to respond to any of them.
