Despite undertakings to the contrary, Hitler intervened in the Spanish Civil War. He broke the German-Austrian treaty of 11th July 1936 with the occupation and annexation of Austria, then the Munich Agreement with Czechoslovakia which was occupied on 15th March 1939 after threats to President Hácha. Chamberlain had failed to achieve “peace for our time”.

Hitler then went on to break the non-aggression pact with Poland and invade it on 1st September 1939, bringing England and France into a war for which they were ill-prepared. He similarly broke a non-aggression pact with Denmark, invading Denmark and Norway on 9th April 1940. He bombed Holland and Belgium on the night of 10th May 1940, having previously denied such intentions. Dashing his promises of peace and friendship, he ruthlessly invaded Yugoslavia. Tearing up the German-Russia non-aggression pact, he invaded Russia on 22nd June 1941.

Hitler has tried to justify his invasion of different countries as though it was forced upon him. It is claimed, however, that he wanted to conquer an entire continent. He has committed atrocities in every country he has occupied. It concludes that peace or negotiations are impossible and the Germans are urged to overthrow Hitler.
