Too idealistic by far.
Germany DID start WW1 and WW2.
After WW1, they got what Hitler managed to persuade many Germans was a punitive deal from the Allies, and which ultimately led to WW2.
I won't argue about the war reparations, whether too much or too little, but not an unreasonable apportionment of blame, I think.
Ironically neither wars were started by Germany. In WW1 Austria started the war after a Serbian separatist shot the crown prince. Germany entered into it as allies just like Russia did. In WW2 it was Britain and France who declared war with Germany not viceversa although I agree that Hitler had to be stopped.
The treaty of Versailles was a punitive deal, the worst of its kind. In some ways it reminds me of the Dublin 2 which puts ridiculously amount of pressure on the Southern European nations in terms of immigration and the pressure war torn neighbouring countries are feeling in terms of mass immigration. Sure there's alot of difference between one another. However the result seem to be the same = extremism.
I don't think that kicking a fallen enemy is wise as much as I disagree in making war profitable.
