Churchill and the Presidents:
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (4 March 1933—12 April 1945) <https://winstonchurchill.hillsdale.edu/churchill-presidents-franklin-roosevelt/> by Warren F. Kimball Hillsdale College Churchill Project “There has been no greater threat to civilization in the 20th century than Nazi Germany. The immediate danger—military, economic, cultural—was to European civilization, but a Nazi-controlled Europe would have threatened much more than just the West. As the conqueror and owner of Europe, Hitler’s Germany would have had the resources to dominate the Mediterranean, to control the Middle East, and threaten the Western Hemisphere. Perhaps that empire would have collapsed from the pressures of over-expansion, but even a relatively brief Nazi rule would have been horrible. The Second World War was the sine qua non for saving much of the world from another descent into dystopian barbarism.” (For Churchill and earlier U.S. presidents from McKinley to Hoover, enter their names in the search box on winstonchurchill.hillsdale.edu) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ChurchillChat" group.
