Question

N 1939, British politician Winston Churchill uttered these words: "Between shame and war, we have chosen shame, and we will get war." To what was Churchill referring?
a. Chamberlain's appeasement of Hitler at Munich
b. Hitler's annexation of Austria (the Anschluss)
c. the Czech leaders' refusal to accept a peace deal
d. the U.S. refusal to help Britain early in World War II

Answer 1

A. Chamberlain's appeasement of Hitler at Munich.

Chamberlain governed Britain before WWII, and World War One was still fresh in the minds of his citizens, who had lost fathers, sons, brothers and comrades, with many men coming back without limbs, or with PTSD or "shellshock". Chamberlain's main concern was to avoid another war at all costs, by allowing Hitler's Germany to break many rules of their constraints, enforced by the Treaty of Versailles. Chamberlain resigned once he realized war was imminent, and Churchill took office, having believed that Appeasement was shameful and ineffective.
