He has never been proved more abundantly right for he gave us six months of peace in which Channon rearmed, and he was right to try appeasement.
Lord Halifax argued that appeasement was the right policy because it aimed to maintain peace and stability in Europe by avoiding another devastating conflict like World War I. He believed that by accommodating some of Adolf Hitler's demands, Britain could buy time to rearm and prepare for potential future threats. Halifax also felt that the grievances of Germany following the Treaty of Versailles were legitimate and that addressing them could lead to a more stable and cooperative Europe. Ultimately, he viewed appeasement as a pragmatic approach to diplomacy in a volatile geopolitical landscape.
There are many reasons which do justify appeasement and also many reasons that don't justify appeasement. Firstly, appeasement was justified because many military experts in Britain calculated that there would be over 1 million deaths in the first 60 days of war if war broke out in September 1938. This meant that many people wanted to have a negotiated peace because Britain was not ready for war. Furthermore, appeasement was justified because Britain wanted to play for time so she could rearm and massively increase the number of men in the army (through conscription) and the number of RAF planes. This also links to the calculations made by the military experts as Britain knew that if they did not rearm then many civilians would die in air raids. Instead, politicians knew that buying time would decrease that risk. However, appeasement was not justified because only 7% of the British population believed that Hitler would not demand to take over any other European countries. This meant that 93% of the population thought Hitler would take land that was not rightfully German which would inevitably result in war. Furthermore, appeasement was not justified because giving in to Hitler's demands at the Munich Conference meant that Hitler would have more confidence and perhaps take a gamble to demand more land in the future. This also links to the fact that Germany would become much stronger through appeasement which would make it much harder to defeat a stronger Germany in the future. In my overall opinion, I don't think appeasement was justified because it gave Hitler the confidence to demand more land. This was evident when Hitler demanded the Polish Corridor and Danzig in August 1939, which eventually resulted in war. The public opinion in Britain also was a reason to abandon appeasement because many thought Hitler would demand further, which did happen, and this links to the point I said about Hitler growing more confident and stronger. However, the possible death toll in the first 60 days of a war was incredibly high if Britain did not play for time and rearm.
German leaders could not be trusted to honor agreements with other countries.
A moral claim simply means that one calls an action moral or right and grants it a special status. The basis of a moral claim is frequently religious but can also reflect social mores, personal approval, or utilitarian objectives.

Channon claimed that appeasement was the right policy as it aimed to prevent war and maintain peace in Europe during a time of economic and political instability. He argued that the concessions made to aggressive powers, particularly Nazi Germany, were attempts to buy time for countries to prepare militarily and avoid conflict. Evidence supporting this claim included the lack of immediate military preparedness among European nations and the belief that addressing the grievances of Germany could lead to a more stable and cooperative international environment. However, critics argue that appeasement ultimately emboldened aggressors and failed to prevent World War II.
Channon claimed that appeasement was the right policy because it aimed to maintain peace and stability in Europe by addressing the grievances of aggressive nations like Germany, thereby preventing another devastating conflict like World War I. He argued that concessions could potentially lead to a more stable and cooperative international environment. Evidence supporting this claim included instances where early diplomacy and concessions seemed to temporarily ease tensions, suggesting that negotiation could be more effective than confrontation.
it found a country and commonwealth wholly united within itself, and that no alternative remained.
Lord Halifax believed appeasement was the right policy to avoid another devastating conflict like World War I. He argued that Britain was not militarily prepared for war and needed to buy time to strengthen its defenses. Evidence for his stance included the perceived threat from Nazi Germany and the belief that reasonable concessions could maintain peace. Halifax also pointed to the widespread public sentiment against war, suggesting that many shared his view that diplomacy was preferable to confrontation.
The UK government had no choice but to offer appeasement in 1938 because its Armed Forces were so small there was nothing that they could do against Germany who had been preparing for war since 1933.
The effectiveness of Neville Chamberlain's policy of appeasement is widely debated among historians. Proponents argue that it temporarily delayed war and allowed Britain to prepare militarily, while critics contend that it emboldened Adolf Hitler, ultimately leading to World War II. Chamberlain believed that satisfying Germany's territorial demands could maintain peace, but this approach ultimately failed as aggressive expansion continued. In hindsight, many view appeasement as a miscalculation that underestimated the Nazi regime's ambitions.

The Bankruptcy Court has every right to claim the proceeds of a life insurance policy once you are declared by them as insolvent.
if he's not on the policy as a beneficiery he can't. ADDED: It makes no difference if the child is an adult or a minor. If the policy is up-to-date (i.e.: all premiums paid and current) and your ex-husband is a named beneficiary on the policy then he does have beneficiary rights. It's as simple as that. On the other hand, if he was NOT specifically named on the policy, he has no claim whatsoever.
It was an attempt to avoid war. Nobody wanted to go through all of that death and destruction, yet when an enemy is intent on destroying you, you must fight. In the case of Germany, they were intent on ruling all of Europe and eventually the world. No amount of appeasement would have deterred Hitler. He believed it to be the Aryan right. It's a lesson we should have learned. No amount of appeasement will deter radical Islam. They too are intent on ruling the world.
Appeasement was a controversial strategy right out of the gate. Hitler and his German war machine had already broken a number of conventions. Ultimately what defeated the appeasement proposal was the obstinance of Winston Churchill. What deemed it a failure was the invasion of Poland.
