There certainly were reactions to the invasion of the Czechs and Austria.

To argue otherwise is nonsense. These aggressions began the process of galvanizing the Brits to resist further Nazi aggressions, as well as to stir the Americans out of their dozing isolationism. That set the stage for the declaration of war by Britain when Poland was invaded. With the benefit of hindsight, one can readily see how every move by Hitler set off a series of counter reactions.

Every word we utter, every move we make as individuals, stimulates response in others, however subtle they may be, however lagged in time. Every drop of rain that falls provokes response, whether by plant, or insect, or other object, however invisible to us they may be. Everything that happens, everything, causes our world to be different than it was before it happened.

I don't understand how any thinking person could possibly deny this.

Because what is known is far less interesting to me than what has yet to be discovered.
Then discover it. But you aren't going to do it by BSing about very ill-defined situations on the internet. Your going to need facts and measurements.

one has to be willing to be ridiculed, thought foolish, idiotic
You are certainly accomplishing that goal.

In a similar vein, this is why Jesus' admonitions to ". . .turn the other cheek. . ." and " . . .love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you . . ." are such profound paradigm shattering quantum principles that, when practiced, defy "known" laws.
Do you know what the term "quantum" when used in physics means?
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!

This may not be "REAL SCIENCE", but to me, it is real science.
That's your problem.
