Kian Shiong - Yes. Chamberlain did not know the true intentions of Hitler at that time, and after the Sudetenland incident, Hitler promised that it was the last request for territory expansion. The British people at that time were also not willing to go to war, hence trying every possible methods including Appeasement to avoid war. Many people also admired how Hitler wanted to make Germany stronger and Chamberlain thought that a strong Germany can serve as a barrier against expansion from communist Russia.
