Neville Chamberlain and Winston Churchill were contemporaries of Hitler, and
            
             each had his own opinion about appeasing him. They completely disagreed about what
            
             should have been done.
            
             In Neville Chamberlain's speech In Defense Of Appeasement he supports
            
             "peace" at all costs for Europe, regardless of any other factors. He believed that the
            
             Czech Government should agree to give Germany the territory that it wanted, and in
            
             time, the population concerned would be treated fairly under their rule. Chamberlain
            
             said that no matter how much Britain wanted to help Czechoslavakia in their time of
            
             need, they could not involve the entire British Empire in war because of one small
            
             nation. He was "a man of peace"(Perry 373) and did not think that Germany, or any

             have to be very clear that the nation had ill intentions, and it was the great issues that
            
             were at stake, only then would prompt action be taken, in war if necessary. Calmly

             (373).
            
             Chamberlain wanted the whole of Europe to remain safe and peaceful. If this
            
             meant that Czechoslavakia must sacrifice its freedom and homeland, according to him, it
            
             was worth it in order to maintain peace. He received letters from people saying that they
            
             saw no reason to fight. "That is my answer to those who say that we should have told
            
             Germany weeks ago that, if her army crossed the border to Czechoslavakia, we should be
            
             at war with her"(373). Because Britain had no legal obligations to Czechoslavakia, he
             believed that the peo...
