'By failing to resist aggression in the 1930s the League of Nations made Hitler's work easy' How fair is this judgment on the actions of the League in the 1930s?

first answer: It is very true. If the League of Nations had taken action like it was supposed to, threatening violent countries like Germany by stopping trade or attacking them back, then Germany would've been unable to expand and ceize land that was not theirs. But it is also true that we shouldn't blame the League of Nations for everything. Many people had already believed that Germany had been treated too poorly in the Treaty of Versailles, and thought that it was fair for Germany to get a bit more land back. Hitler also used a great deal of trickery. He told world leaders that he merely wanted to get a bit more land to help Germany a little, and didn't intend to go to a world war. He also had many promises he broke, such as promising to not attack Austria. When Hitler had wanted to capture Czechoslovakia, he didn't just rush in and attack, as Czechoslovakia was supposedly protected by France and Russia. Hitler invited the leader of France over, and told him that he wished to capture a small portion of Czechoslovakia, and that he would stop capturing land entirely. France promptly agreed, and a part of Czechoslavakia, Sudetenland, was given to Germany. Hitler promptly broke his promise of stopping his conquest for land, and captured the rest of Czechoslavakia. At this point the countries realized that Hitler was not to be trusted, but Hitler had already gained popularity with his citizens, and was gaining momentum. So though it was true that the League of Nations should have stepped in and stopped Hitler from capturing land, it is also true that Hitler had decieved a great deal of them, and managed to capture land with little force.
second more correct answer: Although much of the first answer is correct, the League of Nations had no enforcement powers, no army, no navy, etc. The League could establish moral, ethical or international legal thresh holds for actions. However it required individual nations to take action against the aggression. Britain & France were unwilling in 1936-1938 to risk war with Germany to try to prevent Hitler's aggression.
