What is this? He's literally the man who started it.
Are you saying he completely changed his mind afterwards and admitted he was wrong? Hard to believe...
Also needs more context, what does he imply that might have prevented the war? Germany giving up territorial claims?

>He's literally the man who started it.
Well, he’s the one who kept it going. He could have cut peace with Hitler and focused on the USSR, which they both recognized as an actual threat. He became prime minister through cutting a deal with the jews. His alcoholism, etc. would be overlooked by the media, and in exchange he would lead Britain to exterminate Germany. And he took the deal. And on his first day in office started bombing German civilians.

[YEP.](https://books.google.com/books?id=59wSDAAAQBAJ&q=keep+england+white#v=snippet&q=keep%20england%20white&f=false) As soon as the war was over, he realized what he had done.
