Hi Iqbal,

Spain is an interesting case.

Re: Appeasement is never rewarding,

I'm wondering if you can tell me who to contact in the Bush PR machine to get the right buzz words? "Appeasement" is one of these excessively regurgitated "team-builder" words that seems to have been uttered by every propaganda organ from the Potomac to, now, Pakistan.

As you must know by now, 90% of the citizens of Spain opposed Aznar's illegal, immoral and irresponsible appeasement of George Bush. What Zapatero is doing is merely correcting the astonishingly arrogant appeasement that Aznar engaged his unwilling nation in.

Talk about appeasers? Tony Blair, for the sake of a slice of the action, appeased the greatest tyrant on the planet. Same thing with Australia's John Howard, cruelly appeasing George Bush, Tyrant, and utterly disregarding the overwhelming desire of the Australian nation to just go surfing.

Yes, appeasement is evil. How can so many world leaders have gotten on their bellies and sought out the hem of George Bush's pants in order to appease the Greatest Tyrant of Our Age?
