Roosevelt Signals Aid to Democracies in Europe
Reports of Roosevelt telling the Senate military affairs committee he would aid European democracies in every possible way short of war circulated in London papers. The front pages carried headlines tying Roosevelt to aid for democracies and linking the frontier to France. Observers doubt public comment in official quarters, yet the meeting’s implications bolster Britain and France policy toward dictators. Some see Roosevelt’s stance as influencing Chamberlain’s demand for concrete peace evidence in Parliament.

Reginald of Chatillon and the fall of Jerusalem
In medieval Palestine Reginald of Chatillon led raids for booty under a coastal castle near the Dead Sea. King Baldwin failed to curb him, and Saladin mounted a siege in 1187 after Reginald captured caravans, prompting a wave of crusaders led by Richard the Lion-Hearted. Saladin spared Jerusalem by offering a 40 day grace period for exit and ransom.
