Steyn: Comparing Obama To Neville Chamberlain Is Unfair To Chamberlain
Breitbart.com ^ | July 15, 2015 | Ian Hanchett

Columnist and author of “The Undocumented,” Mark Steyn argued comparing President Obama to Neville Chamberlain is “rather unfair to Neville Chamberlain” on Tuesday’s “Hannity” on the Fox News Channel. Steyn said of comparisons between Obama and Chamberlain, “I think actually that’s rather unfair to Neville Chamberlain, Sean. He got the central question of the 1930’s wrong, but he was an honorable man, who believed he was acting in the interests of his country and the British Empire which he loved.

What is obscene (besides the agreement) is the Obamalove being displayed by the major networks concerning same.

Obama is setting the world on fire as the fireman is being crippled. Out of the coming conflagration, he hopes, will rise a new Islamic domination of much of the World.

Last time I checked, Obama is just a filthy human right?

What Obummer doesn’t understand, he would be one of the first beheaded in that scenario.

BO is much closer to Idi Amin, Mugabe, and Hitler. He is not on America’s side, he is on the side of our enemies.

“O” thinks he can partake of greatness by destroying it.

We miss it when we look at this as just “supporting Islam.” You must look at the Sunni - Shiite split. These two groups hate each other, and what is happening is that Obama is supporting the Shiite Iranians here. The Sunnis (Saudis et al) are less than keen about this whole deal.

Recall that key Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett grew up in Iran, similar to how Obama grew up in Indonesia, and it all starts to make sense.

You are correct that he is supporting the Shia against the Sunni, but he supports all Muslims against Jews and Christians. He is bringing chaos to the world and many many will die because of his boiling hatred against the West and civilization.

BO is beyond impeachment. He needs Court Marshaled. This is treason.

I have always believed that Chamberlain got that deal while knowing it was a bad deal. But, he needed time to allow the British to at least build up their forces and prepare for war.

Britain got breathing space to build spitfires, radar and the RAF.

The mullahs got ONE HUNDRED THIRTY BILLION DOLLARS.

What the hell did WE get?

He supports those who worship a FALSE god, who are against those who worship the TRUE God.

Chamberlain also knew in 1938 the UK was not ready for war, but I believe deep down he knew it was inevitable, but he tried to buy time. Notice right afterward, the UK went on a war footing with expansion of their military.

Years ago, I talked to an elderly British couple about WWII, and the subject came up about Neville Chamberlain... the general feeling in England at the time was that Chamberlain’s appeasement of Hitler in 1938 bought some time for the Brits to arm up. They never trusted Hitler, but were woefully unprepared in the late 1930s to engage Germany in warfare. As such, the Brits believed Chamberlain to be an honorable man facing a very difficult task.

Obama, by contrast, just delights in f***ing America.

Look for Israel in its own quiet way to do the same, be on a war footing from today onwards.

Perhaps if they had listened to Churchill in 1934, instead of ridiculing him, it wouldn’t have come to that.
