Chamberlin 1938

Versailles set the conditions for harsh economic conditions in Germany. Hitler exploited this by first using this to take power and then making the Jews part or all of the reason for the economic conditions. Leading to his ability to convince the German population that they were under siege and needed to sacrifice lives. He ended up misusing Christian values to rev up his troops to die for the fatherland.

The parallels are obvious to the radical islamist misusing Islamic values to rev up the populations to die for the holy lands of Islam. The oppression of the American backed regimes (Israel and Arab regimes) is setting the conditions for the terrorism.

All these things usually get back to economic conditions.

And yes, Wilson carries the a large part of the blame for the treaty. Perhaps another example of American Foreign Policy backlash. I expect some on this forum to take exception to this.
