Sir Winston Churchill speech, "The Treat of Nazi Germany" 11/16/34
The most depressing time in Winston Churchill's long life was the
1930s. It was a period during which he clearly saw the approaching Nazi
danger and during which his speeches -- in fact his greatest -- warned
a heedless polity of its reckless course.What separated Churchill from his
contemporaries was his recognition from 1933 on that Nazi Germany
represented a terrifying strategic and moral danger. It was in that
dark combination, he believed, that the rights, traditions, and
fundamental beliefs of Western civilization were already under assault.
In July 1934, Churchill wrote in the Daily Mail:

In July 1934, Churchill wrote in the Daily Mail:
I marvel at the complacency of ministers in
the face of the frightful experiences through which we have all so
newly passed. I look with wonder upon the thoughtless crowds disporting
themselves in the summer sunshine, and upon this unheeding House of
Commons, which seems to have no higher function than to cheer a
Minister; [and all the while across the North Sea], a terrible process
is astir. Germany is arming.
What would he say about the times we live today. Clearly today Islamic Fascism is the danger we face today. His words still echo as true today as they did then, just replace Germany with Islamic fascism.
