Fresh on the heels of the oddball Seattle Times editorial proclaiming that appeasing Hitler would have been a good idea after all, we find Pat Buchanan floated the same meme.
From One Jerusalem:
In a provocatively titled column, Bush Plays The Hitler Card Pat Buchanan takes historical revisionism to new heights. In his narrative, the rational political operatives are Adolph Hitler and Neville Chamberlain. The warmongers are George Bush and the Poles who did not appease Hitler.
I give Buchanan credit for criticizing Bush's Knesset speech from a different angle. Obama and Clinton huffed and puffed at what they interpreted as Bush's criticism of them but Buchanan uses this topic to defend Hitler!
Buchanan credits British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain with having the right policy of negotiating with Hitler which, in Buchanan's historical imagination, led to peace. You see Hitler had these legitimate gripes, Buchanan maintains, he just wanted to repatriate German's living in Czechoslovakia and Poland.
Buchanan's take on the causes of World War II leads him to conclude that negotiating with Hamas, Iran, Hezzbolah, and I guess Al Queda is the road to piece and security.
If you visit the Townhall website that has published this Buchanan fantasy you will be encouraged to see that readers have given the lowest rating to Buchanan's piece. Perhaps you would want to grade him as well.
