In spite of the format Mr. Buchanan hits one out of the park discussing
his
new book: Churchill, Hitler, and "The Unnecessary War." Among the British
and
Churchillian blunders were:
• The secret decision of a tiny cabal in the inner Cabinet in 1906 to
take Britain straight to war against Germany, should she invade
France
• The vengeful Treaty of Versailles that mutilated Germany, leaving
her bitter, betrayed, and receptive to the appeal of Adolf Hitler
• Britain’s capitulation, at Churchill’s urging, to American pressure
to sever the Anglo- Japanese alliance, insulting and isolating
Japan, pu****ng her onto the path of militarism and conquest
• The 1935 sanctions that drove Italy straight into the Axis with
Hitler
• The greatest blunder in British history: the unsolicited war
guarantee
to Poland of March 1939—that guaranteed the Second World War
• Churchill’s astoni****ng blindness to Stalin’s true ambitions.
Certain to create controversy and spirited argument, Churchill, Hitler,
and
“The Unnecessary War” is a grand and bold insight into the historic
failures
of judgment that ended centuries of European rule and guaranteed a future
no
one who lived in that vanished world could ever have envisioned.
