Like Trump said: Ukraine should have never happened. It’s a tragedy for the human race. The killing needs to end.

Because I may as well tick you off some more today it’s for that reason I also support Neville Chamberlain’s actions. At least he tried to prevent the slaughter. He’s widely reviled but in the end he at least tried to prevent the slaughter which can’t be said for many on our side over the past 50+ years.

At least according to one renowned historian, Chamberlain’s party believed England should stay out of the war, let the continentals weaken each other, and then England would emerge as the strongest European power.

Of course the understanding of Chamberlain today is a caricature.

In fact, England and France entered the war over Poland, which they couldn’t help, but failed to get involved in Czechoslovakia, where they might have been able to do something.

No one said history or reality is ready
easy.

Chamberlain was probably wrong for multiple reasons. Some being that nuclear weapons were on the way, and that Hitler violated all his agreements and had plans to conquer Britain. Plus Hitler was pure evil.
