Truth is allies were stronger at the beginning of the period than at the end. Perhaps by Munich it was too late, just as it was too late in 39. My point to the crybaby was that the term Munich is symbolic of that 10 year period when the west ignored the threat and failed to act. Munich may be in 2017 but the Munich syndrome is counting down as we speak. Crybaby doesnt have the stomach to stop it now, in a year or in 10 years. His one saving grace is that he recognizes the west's military is understaffed so he demands we go to a draft while he drinks a draught while sunning himself in Tuscany. US as the Hessian is OK for him as long as we have a draft, tax ourselves into the recession and leave himn alone to eat his pasta in peace. Hell, i would trade places with him in a heartbeat. No work, free medical care, all the pasta you can eat and Uncle Schmuck guarantees it all with blood and money. But thats still not enuff--he refuses to even make the contribution to the effort that a devaluing dollar brings to the table.
