JWR posted an article by Sam Schulman in which he claims that appeasement in the 1930s may have accidentally caused the Holocaust, but today’s anti-war activists have no accident about their intentions:
Our grandparents’ anti-war allies enabled the Holocaust — by accident. Your present day anti-war allies wish quite deliberately to destroy “Jewish interests” — and the lives of many, many Jews in the process. And this is not an unintentional byproduct of good intentions — but for many leaders of the peace movement, a precious goal.

As Orwell pointed out long ago, pacifism in the face of armed evil is equivalent to a blind worship of force. For those of our race – the historic victims of so many causes – it would be disastrous to make the same mistake twice, and entrust our children’s fate to the hands of these sad and complicitous pacifists.
Yeah, go read the whole thing. Twice.
