Extreme Left Like Neville Chamberlain

Excerpt from How America Got It Right, by Bevin Alexander, page 228

Countries unwilling to take up the challenge of terrorism are like British prime minister Neville Chamberlain, who appeased Adolf Hitler, wishing the danger of Nazi Germany would go away. The majority of nations today keep a low profile and simply hope that the United States will take care of the terrorists, or that the terrorists will just go away on their own. But as Winston Churchill warned Chamberlain when he returned from Munich in 1938 after selling out Czechoslovakia to Hitler, “You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor, and you will have war.”

Only the extreme Left in the United States has, like Chamberlain, chosen dishonor. It supported France’s and Germany’s do-nothing position on Iraq, hunted for any reason to condemn the action, and used the limited guerrilla war that developed in the Saddam-friendly “Sunni triangle” around Baghdad to demand our withdrawal from Iraq.
