Are you trying to be a spelling NAZI?

OT: One of my clients just called me from Iran. It is morning there. She said that it is a very nice day.

As my earlier point indicated, the Great Britian and the rest of the world waited far too long. Regardless of Hitler's ambitions, he was at his weakest politically and militarily prior to his string of successive, easy victories. Confrontation would probably have prevented his later alliances with Japan and Italy and his opponents in Germany would have probably been able to deal with him. By the time Great Britian declared war, it was too late. Even on the playground it is common knowledge that appeasement never works when dealing with bullies.

I thought Britain delayed mostly because it was not sufficiently prepared for any sort of war, and needed the time.

Not that it proved or disproved either of your (or my) arguments.

The jibe about Hitler was only because of Godwins Law.

Don't worry - it is a "safe" usage and I was only making a geeky wind-up.
