[0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=7) If you show that you are strong, then the invasion doesn't take place.

[0:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=12) And if Hitler had thought we were strong, then Poland would not have been invaded, no, definitely.

[0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=17) Hitler did not wanna go to war with the UK.

[0:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=19) He thought we wouldn't do anything about Poland, as we'd done nothing- Hitler repeatedly said, "I do not want to go to war with the UK."

[0:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=23) A- as, as- Do you acknowledge that? ... as, as we'd done nothing about Czechoslovakia, he thought we'd do nothing about Poland.

[0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=28) We acknowledge that Hitler said repeatedly- I, I- ... in public and through diplomacy- No, no ... I do not want war with the UK.

[0:32](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=32) You, you seem to be putting more trust in Hitler than I would.

[0:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=34) He said all sorts of things. Just saying, he said that.

[0:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=35) He signed an agreement with Neville Chamberlain.

[0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=37) Did he say that? I really don't care what he said, because he said to N- Okay ... he signed a piece of paper with Neville Chamberlain saying he would not invade.

[0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=43) Okay. I'm very surprised you're verging on defending Hitler.

[0:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=46) I think this is not really what- That- ... you want to be doing.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=48) Yeah, I guess I'm just a secret Nazi. Um- All right ... I'm actually not a secret Nazi.

[0:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=52) I'm reassured. And hardly a public Nazi. I'm someone who tries to think clearly about cause and effect.

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/BkM5FBlTlL68/en/did-british-weakness-encourage-hitler-to-invade-poland?t=59) Yes.
