Peace In Our Time

Just a reminder, it was this date in 1938 that Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Edouard Daladier, and Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich Pact. Returning to Britain, Chamberlain declared they had achieved "peace in our time." He thought Hitler was sincere and a "gentleman."

For all the would be Chamberlains today please reflect on the cost of appeasement and remember freedom is not free. As one member of Parliament quoting Oliver Cromwell, told Chamberlain later on, "Depart, I say, and let us have done with you!"
Words to remember.
