It certainly did not work out that way for a certain Austrian corporal.
The danger is when a mayor or cabinet minister still wants to be a martyr. Attacking Israel or the US could manage that quite nicely.
A similarity between that Corporal and the boys who are Hamas is that they want to kill Jews, as many as they can, as fast as they can, whenever they can. Not too surprising since their is a direct line of descent from the Nazis to Hamas, via the Muslim Brotherhood and a couple of other spin offs from the MB.
I wonder if Bush is somehow related to Chamberlain?
At the rate things are going, he'd probably be awarded the contract to manage remaining US ports that are not being run by the UAE or the Chicoms.
