Charles Krauthammer: Worst since Munich
Politico ^ | 11/26/13 | JOSE DELREAL

Posted on 11/26/2013 7:59:07 AM PST by Hotlanta Mike

Charles Krauthammer says he believes President Barack Obama’s deal with Iran is “the worst deal since Munich.”

“This is a sham from beginning to end. It’s the worst deal since Munich,” Krauthammer said on Fox News “Special Report” on Monday. “It’s really hard to watch the president and the secretary of state and not think how they cannot be embarrassed by this deal.”

The Munich Agreement of 1938 between Hitler and major European powers expanded Germany’s borders. Today, the failed negotiation is widely considered an act of appeasement.

The ONLY question one has to imagine, Charles, is did this gambit divert your attention from the Obamacare debacle that our President engineered willingly.

From your article, it appears that it did.

Enough said.

That’s a tacky photoshop. And it’s not like W did much heavy lifting to keep Iran from developing its nuclear capability either. So Zero isn’t much worse in that regard. As for Bibi, he should stop selling wolf tickets. Either fish (i.e. strike Iran) or cut bait.

"My good friends, for the second time in our history, a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Go home and get a nice quiet sleep." --Neville Chamberlain, 30 September 1938

You are feeling very sleepy.

Can't disagree with that. As long as Jews vote 90% liberal, they shouldn't be alarmed when this kind of thing happens.

It will be forgotten in a few more days but the Obamacare debacle is going to go on for a couple of year as over half the US gets hammered.

I believe it will be a limited nuclear war insomuch as there will be nukes dropped somewhere in the middle east, and al Qaeda and company will drop a suitcase nuke in a major US city. After the devastation is broadcast across the globe, there will be calls for a “cease fire,” but brokering it will be more impossible than an Israeli-Palestinian border agreement.

That image has been around since October 2008... and I know that Matt Drudge did not create it! It was actually created when Obama would not produce his birth certificate.

While this Iran deal is dangerous and reprehensible I wish people would stop using Munich as a go to metaphor. The Munich syndrome, even more than Pearl Harbor, influenced the foreign policy of the US for over 60 years. And some of those policies were decidedly harmful to America. And Chamberlain was not the fool he is painted to be. In the fall of 38 there were real questions about the ability of the UK to oppose Germany’s military. Figures show that in all of the UK there were 8 squadrons of modern fighters while the Luftwaffe had been honing its skills and creating a myth by its operations in Spain. The fear of attacks on English cities was very real. France was in no bettter shape. That Germany was not as powerful in 38 as believed does not alter the fact that Chamberlain’s decision was based as much on incomplete intelligence of their advesary and a real understanding of their own military shortcoming as it was on a desire to avoid war.

At least Chamberlain had an excuse. That little event called World War 1.
