Just finished reading a biography of Winston by William Manchester.
The two volumes were titled "The Last Lion."The first volume, "In Search of Glory," was about his youth and Military service. The second, " Alone" was about the run up to WW2 and his taking
on the position of Prime Minister of Great Britain at age 65.
I have always know of the stupidity of Neville Chamberlain but I
never realized he had so much help. The politicians did every
thing in the power to condemn England to death and didn't even
know.
Baldwin,Cadogan, Chamberlin, Halifax, Henderson and more were
so incompetent one wonderes that the Allies survived.

Obama would have understood The Phony War.
