By that sort of thinking one can blame much of ww2 on the western allies then.If only churchill had accepted the germans peace proposals in 1940 imagine how many lives could`ve been saved not only on the side of the western allies but also among europes civilian populace
.
Interesting comparison,
If you remember after the war , England had an election in 1945.
Churchill , the (British) Bulldog , the " roaring lion " , who would forever be remembered a hero in British history , Lost the elections.
It was the first time the Conservative party lost an election since 1906. Vast majority if British wanted England to take a different course.
No one asked the Iranians what course they would like to take .
