Deals with Predators Always End in War
The World's Suicidal Pattern of Appeasing Evil
History doesn’t whisper warnings—sometimes it shouts them.
And yet, the world keeps covering its eyes and ears.
On this day, June 22, 1940, France surrendered to Nazi Germany, choosing submission over sovereignty. Exactly one year later, on June 22, 1941, Hitler shattered the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact with the Soviet Union and launched a massive invasion of his former ally.
But these weren’t isolated mistakes. They were part of a deadly, recurring pattern of suicide pacts.
Rewind to September 30, 1938, When British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain returned from Munich waving a worthless piece of paper singed between Germany, Britain, Italy and France. Chamberlain declared “peace for our time.” That paper—the Munich Agreement—handed Hitler the Sudetenland in western Czechoslovakia. and gave him the green light to keep marching forward.
Less than a year later, on September 1, 1939, Hitler invaded Poland—and just like that, World War II began. From the west came the Nazis, and seventeen days later, from the east came Stalin’s Red Army and the Polish state was crushed between two totalitarian war machines.
Why did Stalin stand down and invaded Poland? Because just days earlier, on August 23, 1939, he and Hitler signed the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, an agreement to carve up Eastern Europe. For Stalin, it was a cynical move to buy time and gain control on parts of Eastern Europe. For Hitler, it was a green light to invade Poland without fear of Soviet resistance.
As Polish cities burned and civilians were slaughtered, France and Britain hesitated. Despite being bound by treaty to defend Poland, France delayed any real military action—paralyzed by the fear of confronting the Nazi–Soviet alliance. What followed was a tragic farce: the “Phoney War,” in which promises of defense never became meaningful action. Instead of halting German aggression, Allied inaction allowed Hitler to turn his attention northward.
In April 1940, Germany launched a full-scale invasion of Denmark and Norway. Denmark capitulated in a single day, while in Norway, German forces met stiffer resistance. But the betrayal came from within: Norwegian fascist politician Vidkun Quisling actively encouraged the Nazis to invade his own “neutral country,” seizing power in a German-backed coup. His name would become synonymous with treason.
The result? German troops quickly secured control of Norway’s key ports, ensuring Nazi dominance over vital North Sea shipping routes. Britain tried but failed to mount an effective defense. Inaction and appeasement didn’t save Denmark, didn’t save Norway, and most certainly didn’t save France, which itself fell just weeks later.
Lesson: Appeasement doesn’t stop evil. It feeds it.
As France was falling and while Winston Churchill delivered his rousing “Finest Hour” speech on June 18 1940, rallying Britain’s resolve while standing alone against Hitler’s Nazi Germany, France was preparing to fold. Just four days later, 85 years ago today, on June 22, 1940, Marshal Philippe Pétain signed an armistice agreement with Hitler, birthing Vichy France—a puppet regime complicit in Nazi crimes.
In 1940, Britain was alone, Churchill was rallying the free world. France was surrendering. The Soviet Union was watching from the sides, still bound by the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact. And Hitler, he was already plotting his next betrayal. Exactly one year later, on June 22, 1941, Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa, turning on Stalin and invading the Soviet Union with devastating force. The pact that was supposed to buy “peace” to the USSR, delivered only war, mass murder and destruction.
Lesson two for those who still missed it:
Appeasement and pacts with predators don’t prevent war—they guarantee it.
And now—on another June 22—we’re watching the same pattern repeat.
Only this time, it’s Iran.
The Islamic Republic of Iran doesn’t want peace. It wants power. It chants for genocide. It funds terrorism. It openly builds the infrastructure of annihilation. And it’s been stunningly clear about its endgame: Death to America. Death to Israel. Death to the West.
Its goal isn’t diplomacy. It’s a policy of domination. It wants to build a globe-spanning Islamic theocracy, armed with the one tool that guarantees impunity: the atomic bomb. Iran has built an empire of infiltration—terror cells embedded across Europe, the United States, Canada, Latin America, and beyond. Hezbollah operatives, Quds Force agents, proxy militias, sleeper cells—already on standby. The regime doesn’t need tanks to invade the West with planes or tanks, it doesn’t need to fight the West in the Middle East. It’s already inside.
It is not just sleeper cells and Iranian agents, it has managed to rally masses of morally rotten and useful idiots around the world, burning the American flag, while chanting “Death to America,” “Death to the West,” and “Globalize the Intifada,” all while waving the Islamic terrorists flags.
Geo-politically, Iran’s alliances are transactional.
China is now reconsidering its long-term partnership with Iran. Despite signing a 25-year, $400 billion strategic deal in 2021, actual Chinese investment has been minimal, and growing instability has made Tehran a risky partner. With Iran’s regional aggression escalating and more stable Gulf states offering better returns, Beijing is quietly pulling back. For Iran, losing China means losing its biggest economic and geopolitical lifeline in Asia.
Then comes Russia, recently, Iran signed a sweeping 20-year strategic cooperation pact with Russia—a deal filled with promises of joint military exercises, arms transfers, energy trade, and shared hostility toward the West. For Russia, it’s it helps it in getting more Iranian drones and missiles for its illegal war in Ukraine.
But here’s the kicker: both pacts includes no defense clause. No fighter jets, tanks or boots on the ground. No commitment from Russia or China to come to Iran’s aid as Israel attacks IRGC leaders, nuclear scientists and sites.
Apparently, something may have been lost in translation—literally. Because Tehran seems to have expected much more. But China and Russia, ever the opportunist, gave just enough to get what it needed. A cold reminder that even alliances of convenience come with expiration dates when self-preservation is at stake.
Iran isn’t thrilled. It expected backup. Iran’s ambassador to Moscow warns Russia: “The Iranian people will remember who stood by us in these times, and who chose to stay silent.” All it got was China’s and Russia's support for an “emergency session” of the UN Security Council. At Iran’s request, the meeting was held Friday, as Iranian missiles were raining down on Israeli babies and hospitals. And what did António Guterres and the International community offer? More tired slogans: “restraint,” “ceasefire,” “give peace a chance.”
The JCPOA—the Iran nuclear deal—was supposed to be the grand diplomatic breakthrough. A pact to contain Iran’s nuclear ambitions and “give peace a chance.” It should have become yet another cautionary tale, it didn’t.
Since signing the deal, Iran has repeatedly violated its terms. IAEA inspectors have uncovered undeclared nuclear sites, secret weapons-related programs, and uranium enriched to at least 60% purity since 2022—far beyond anything needed for civilian energy use. Saturday, even threatening those monitors with their life for reporting the dirty and ugly facts.
Iran didn’t just walk away from its commitments—it ran.
It deceived, obstructed, and escalated.
And yet, Western diplomats still call for “dialogue.” Negotiators have spent the last few months jetting across the globe, desperately trying to revive the same broken framework. Trying to appease a regime that has made its intentions brutally clear. It’s not about diplomacy anymore. It’s about denial.
On Friday, the regime was welcomed in Geneva for more “negotiations,” fresh off an address at the UN Human Rights Council, the UN body where serial abusers human rights sit and terrorists are handed immunity and a microphones.
Meanwhile, UN Human Rights “experts” like Francesca Albanese and Ben Saul released a statement condemning Israel for targeting nuclear sites, call for ceasefires, and push for arms embargoes—all while the Iranian people keep getting slaughtered, centrifuges keep spinning and the missiles keep raining on Israeli hospitals, schools, homes and even mosques.
As if Albanese defending the Islamic Republic weren’t outrageous enough, Ben Saul, one of the “experts” who released the statement, official role is should be even more revealing about where the UN stands: he’s the UN Special Rapporteur tasked with protecting the human rights of terrorists, not their victims.
That should tell you everything you need to know.
All in the name of “human rights” and “preventing war.”
Once again, the world clings to illusions and refuse to see reality, appeasing predators doesn’t work.
Let’s not pretend we don’t know what’s coming.
Iran doesn’t want a seat at the table. It wants a nuclear holocaust.
And unlike Hitler in the 1930s, the mullahs aren’t even pretending. They chant it in the streets. They place clocks in their squares and print it on their missiles.
And leading the charge for appeasement today? Again Britain and France.
The very same France that once surrendered to the Nazis now leads the European push to rescue the Iran nuclear deal. Starmer is now the Neville Chamberlain of our time, Macron, is no different than Pétain, surrendering and pretending that one more worthless signature will contain genocidal ambitions.
And who stands beside them in this farce? Norway. Yes—Norway—the very nation betrayed by Quisling in 1940, who until today keeps the Nazi collaborators archive classified, now has a new Quisling and its defends Iran’s “right” to nuclear technology in the name of “peaceful development.” Same actors. Same appeasement. Same complicity. Different totalitarian threat.
This time, Britain isn’t standing strong as it once did with Churchill. Today’s Britain folds. It looks away. It appeases alongside the EU, betraying the memory of its own Finest Hour. In 2025, the UK is not even considered a “trusted partner” to tackle Iran.
And the United States? Despite Iran’s war on America’s doorstep—its operatives embedded across the continent, its terror proxies attacking American assets and decades of murdering U.S. citizens, its drones and missiles aimed at American troops—Washington hesitates, it asks for two weeks to make up its mind. Cowardice masquerading as diplomacy or as Trump supporters say, “it’s part of the plan?”
And standing alone this time? Israel. The lone nation refusing to sleepwalk into catastrophe. Because Israel remembers. It knows what happens when genocidal threats are ignored. It understands the cost of delay is paid in blood. The international community may not have the stomach or moral clarity for confrontation. But Israel has no choice.
Every hour Iran gains brings it closer to the bomb.
Every concession is another brick in the foundation of a mushroom cloud.
We’ve seen this movie before. We know how it ends.
Every “deal” with Tehran is another Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact.
Every delay is another Vichy France moment.
And every concession in’t just another Munich Agreement, it’s a step toward a nuclear Iran.
Pacts with predators are suicide notes written in diplomatic ink, they don’t bring peace, they delay war. It will not stop the predators, it will only make them eat you last.
The world may not thank Israel now. But one day—when the centrifuges are dismantled, and the mushroom cloud never rises—it will. As the German Chancellor said, “Israel is doing the dirty work for all of us”
Update after the history lesson went out: Appeasement no more! Fardow is gone. On June 22, 2025, President Trump took the bold decision to join the war.
