It's funny how most history since WW2 takes Britain and France to task for backing down from Hitler at Munich and throwing Czechoslovakia to the wolves. Buchanan throws Britain and France to the wolves for interfering one country later. Couldn't they have waited until Herr Hitler had perfected all his 4 engined bombers and built his vast navy and armada of troop transports and taken over the world with a minimum of fuss? The world would be safe now for non-smoking vegetarian white guys in crisp brown uniforms now. He would have gotten away with it too, if it hadn't been for those meddling kids....
Hitler offered Britain peace after the fall of France only to secure his flank for the attack on Russia and save resources. However, I doubt his ambitions or those of his successors would have ever been sated. In addition, the idea that a peace treaty with Britain in 1940 would have prevented the trains from rolling to the concentration camps is ludicrous.
