There were a lot of Brits in the 30s who shared that sentiment. They thought Hitler wasn't such a bad chap, and they would have made a deal with Germany to allow them to have colonies in the East, with the Brits keeping their empire. Back then, the Bolsheviks were the bigger enemy. And even the leftists, people like Waters, admired Hitler's social policies.
Churchill was the only one back then who thought otherwise.
Most people, especially in Britian, fail to realize or acknowledge that Mr. Churchill was half-American.
The Brits got a half-American who saved the UK and we got a half-Kentyan who will destroy America.
