What I can’t square is the Churchill of WWI who spearheaded the British imperial war against Germany, whose only threat was it wanted to be part of the same naval club as the UK. And the one that saved Western Europe in WWII.

That was enough, it is what we are facing with the

The key IMHO is this: Is your adversary more like Kaiser Wilhelm or more like Hitler? Choose wrong (either way) and a lot of innocent people will get killed.
