I agree with him on WWI, but not WWII.

Yep. Buchanan was spot on in regards to WW I. But I found some of his views on WW II to be, shall we say, rather disturbing. In particular, he felt that Britain and France should just have let Hitler take Poland. It was no big deal that Nazi Germany invaded a sovereign country, and brutally subjugated it.
Buchanan thought that if left alone, Hitler would never turn west. And so it would just be Nazi Germany vs. the Soviet Union. Two monsters fighting, with poor Poland merely collateral damage.
I dunno. Hitler was much like Napoleon. Both wanted everything. So had Germany beaten the USSR, I can’t believe Hitler wouldn’t have turned west.
Yep ... although, if we had stayed out of World War One, I believe World War Two would not have happened. At least, not in Europe. We might still have had to fight Japan; that's a complicated different story.
Yeah he comes off a little too pro-German for my tastes.
