Churchill also observed of the Germans: “The Hun is either at your throat or at your feet.’’
“Churchill also observed of the Germans: “The Hun is either at your throat or at your feet.’’”
For Churchill’s time and from his experience that was true. It was America’s will and treasure that made Germany the fine upstanding international citizen they are today. America stood guard so the German’s wouldn’t have to. For roughly five generations America helped mold the German psyche into a good neighbor. What they are today they owe to the beneficence of those who won World War Two, including the British. But it is time to allow them to sink or swim on their own. We should part in friendship and let them take over the burden of protecting what we, together have built.
