England was entirely prepared to carry it out, did carry it out, and kicked Germany's ass. Your unwillingness to deal with this patent fact shows where your actual attitude in the matter comes from, and it isn't thinking for yourself. Germany was not prepared for war, above all diplomatically but also economically, drove straight into a predictable and predicted cul de sac, ran out of friends, added enemies, and predictably got stomped into oblivion. Everyone with half a brain could see it. A string of reckless gambles deluded proud fools in Germany to ignore it for a while, with the usual results of such pride - disaster.

They did? Really? I missed that piece of history. Tell us all about it. Tell us about the success of British arms on the continent kicking German ass from the invasion of Poland until D-day - absolutely no insult intended to the valo[u]r of my British blood cousins for whom I have the fondest affection.

You must be on LSD. There can be no other explanation for this fantasy. None.
