French President Emmanuel Macron has announced his intention to recognize the State of Palestine at the United Nations in September, citing commitments from Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas. The article draws parallels between Macron's move and the actions of French and British leaders in 1938, who appeased Adolf Hitler by ceding part of Czechoslovakia, warning that such decisions by democratic leaders can embolden dictators and lead to greater conflict. The author criticizes Macron for undermining Israel and suggests that history shows appeasement often results in more war, not less. The piece concludes by praising the current United States president for rejecting Macron's plan and calls for stronger resistance to authoritarian demands.
