It's not necessarily bad, or a sign of impending doom.  Just that there's no going back.

The Rubicon being in the general area of Rome, in the time of Rome.

The Maginot Line - that is a French thing.

When Germany crossed that, that was an obvious sign of hostile intent, and the signal for France to fight back.

Of course, Wall Street was also financing WW2 Germany.

Separate Note:
Trebitsch Lincoln - the name of the AIPAC 1920's, Hitler's first big political backer.

Who really was Trebitsch Lincoln ?
