I Would contend that Europeans actions were to blame for WWII. There appeasments only made Hitler bolder.

I would also argue that our appeasments under Klinton did the same thing. Had we "beaten the snot" out of anyone or organization that even thought about killing American citizans - I don't think we would have lost 2,000+ citizens.

Time to adopt the mantra - It is better to be feared than loved.

Ah but the appeasements enabled Hitler to continue. America's operations in other countries do not enable our enemies.

The poll has the respondents saying that America deserved it (at least in part) for what it was doing. We aggrivated our enemies.

Europeans sure did a lot to tick off the Germans, and Hitler in particular. This is the analogy that Europe deserved Hitler's early strikes; they were revenge for punishments Germany suffered after WWI.

Nothing justifies the actions.
