History About To be Repeated

In 1936 Neville Chamberlain meet with Hitler for "peace talks". Returning to England he proclaimed "we shall have peace in our time". We did ,but only after millions of people were killed ,and too many young lives were lost due to his appeasement.
Appeasement by Roosevelt and Truman allowed the Russians to occupy all of East Berlin before Patton and his army were allowed to enter Berlin and we had the Berlin airlift and the Berlin wall for decades.
The appeasers and "peacenics" pressured Nixon to abandon Vietnam. A war we were actually wining despite the loss of 55,000 boys due to political restraints(appeasements and fear) in fighting the enemy. The result was the Communist takeover of that valuable part of the far east and the genocide, killing tens of thousands. Maybe hundreds of thousands, and a flood of people from the region into the United States as refuges.
We are now faced with another civilian report that hopes to take this great country down the road to appeasement with Syria and Iran. The Baker-Hamilton report will advise that we negotiate with these two countries to get them to stop supporting the terrorist killing in Iraq. Winston Churchill made a famous statement during world war II, "We feed the crocodile hoping he will eat us last! "The Baker-Hamilton is one more poor attempt by ex-politicians, now civilians to micromanage a War. It has never worked before, and this will not work now.

Let us let the military do what they are trained to do. Win Battles and eventually win wars. No time line should be place on our fight to preserve our way of life!
