It is known that during the first open act of war by Nazi-Germany,
the Rhineland occupation, there were strict orders to turn tail when
a shot was fired by the (World War 1) allies. This shot need not
have killed a man at all. Had it been fired however, Hitler would
not have been able to triumph over his generals who, for this very
act of war, shrank back. Instead, Hitler would have been either
assassinated, or arrested, as we know now. By showing a stern hand,
the allies could easily have prevented World War 2, only, ... this
was not to the liking of the disarmers, i.e. the electorate. The
governing persons in the allied camp, of course, wanted to be
re-elected so they took no risk of upsetting the electorate, of
becoming unpopular. Remember ..., 60 million deaths.
