You left out "Neville Chamberlain". Remeber the stories of Hitler and him getting so drunk, that Neville allowed the Germans to grab Sudetenland, Czechoslavkia, Austria without rebuttal?
Yeah, Churchill hated Communism? This is the most ignorant statement I've seen yet in this ebtire thread. If he "hated Communism" so much, why did Roosevelt AND Churchill hang the Poles out to dry from 1939 ON, and allow it to be carved up by those "Hated Communists"?

I think that declearing War on another country, because it is invading someone you made insurance to: can be called stood up.
Moronic use of tanks? This was the "Tanktactics" used by most countrys at that time. But, its easy to talk, when you can read a history book 60 years after. And, if you didīnt know it "blixtkieg was an inovation to tactics, made by the Germans.
Chamberlain, was actully the one that i refered to having a meeting with Hitler and uttering the words "Peace in our time"...
Sure you really read this thread?
And , yes Churchill hated Communism and I am not really sure he was in charge at the time for the attack on Poland.
Why did Roosevelt and Churchill let any country at all get carved up? And please tell me how they would been able to aid the Poles? Taking their fleets into the Baltic sea?, March through Germany? Use paratroopers in mass?
I know realize that you can not be very old and your knowledge about matters are within a minimum. One does not get to be very well educated about history by playing "WWII Online".
I can recommend you to read a little more about "Churchill and communism",, by all means,, use google
