There will always be bullies, and frankly, there is more than one way to deal with bullies. Sometimes it's best to negotiate (NOT using other countries as bargaining chips as happened in Munich, however), and sometimes you have to slam their heads against the sidewalk, for everyone's sake. Peaceful resistance takes too much time, sometimes. Disgusting what happened to Czechoslovakia and its patriots, TG Maseryk, Jan Maseryk, and even Benes...

@crossleydd42 being on an island and having many times stronger navy than germany doesnt seem like heroic winning of the war. No sir war was won on the eastern front.

@crossleydd42: The notion that Chamberlain somehow bought time or was being pragmatic is insane. He betrayed what would have a good & valuable ally. Not only were the Czechs a vibrantly democratic culture, they had a superb industrial base & a 1st rank arms industry. There actually factories making Meschershmits in Czechoslovakia. Britain could have confronted the Germans w/ their own fleet of Mescherschmits.

This is the perfect illustration of how it is that equivocal in the face of violent thuggery only invites more violent thuggery. If this man had simply stood his ground Hilter would have been dead b/f 1940 & about 50 million people who died would have lived into the 50s. Talking about peace or even vaporizing like a teenage girl about peace is not actually pursuing peace. Something some "peace activists" in our day need to learn.

You say that you are an Ethiopian Muslim, but you use White Power and Nazi terminology. White Power types don't like Blacks. So what is that about? The rest of your post is something an angry 10 year old might say.
HerMouth1, why don't you get an education and then get a real job?

Chamberlain and Daladier were bitches.

@crossleydd42 Chamberlain was an ignorant, a coward, and a fool. He didn't know who he was dealing with. His famous statement about Czechoslovakia being a "country, far away, of which we know nothing" says it all. This wouldn't have happened with Churchill who was educated, literate, and man with a vision.
Buying time to sacrifice Czechoslovakia? Simply disgusting.
Obama is so young in this video

The Brits deserved all the bombing and everything, I repeat everything they got from the Germans because of this unbelievable betrayal of their ally, friend and the only democratic country in central Europe - Czechoslovakia
