Another thing I get tired of hearing is how every new tinpot dictator that comes down the pike is “another Hitler” and that our failure to overthrow him and occupy his country is “another Munich.” My response is: When Iran’s Rouhani or Syria’s Assad controls all of one continent and good sized chunks of neighboring continents, let me know. Otherwise, it all sounds like a hysterical little kid throwing a hissy fit.
Nazi Germany for a time had the world’s most potent army and air force. Iran couldn’t overrun Iraq when they still had the Shah’s first class military hardware. People can argue the danger Iran can pose through Hezbollah and other terrorist activities, but they’re nothing like the world power that Neville Chamberlain faced at Munich.
