For a compelling discussion of the Treaty of Versailles and its consequences down to the present day, you may wish to have a look at (and, yes, review!) my wonderful new book "A Shattered Peace: Versailles 1919 and the Price We Pay Today" [www.ashatteredpeace.com] just published by Wiley, and available at Amazon.com and most book stores !

Therefore, it is valid. I don't entirely agree with it. But if you're going to pillory her on flimsy pretext, you're going to have to go through me.
