Considering they threw their support to Hitler, it’s pretty easy to make a case WWII is not over from that perspective.

Well it doesn’t help that a Muslim extremist is POTUS.

Lord Richards of Herstmonceux said extremism poses a "real threat" to the world and condemned dithering politicians too reluctant to lead the way.

Are they dithering because they are stupid, or dithering because some of them are on the muzzie side?

Lord Richards has the right of it. We better get our act together too.

ISIS practices the same inhumanity to man that Hitler practiced. The very same.

We didnt really gear up for WWII until after Pearl Harbor when it was almost too late. The military had been pared down to a size similar to what Obama has done to us. Military weaponry, aircraft, and armor were subpar, with some notable exceptions.
And, there was a big isolationist movement. It took a sneak attack for us to vear up. We had our 9/11, and then most people forgot who the last enemy is. Thwt has not changed.

He’ll be up on some charges regarding religious offense or intolerance soon. But he’s right. We’re a few steps behind them — given our misunderstanding of Islam and association of it with violence.

Prepare for Muslim extremism as we prepared for WW2 says former defence chief

Why is the former defense chief telling us to not prepare?

My reading of history shows that Briton was woefully unprepared for WWII and if it wasn't for the American Lend Lease and Hitler's stupidity in attempting to bring England to heel through a bombing campaign and instead invading in force, England would be a vassal state of Greater Germania right now.

However, i could be wrong and they may have beet Nazi Germany single handily in six months.
