Yet....... Repeating worn out claims of "appeasement," neoconservative outfits like the Center for Security Policy (CSP) and the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) have excoriated what they see as the administration's failure of nerve in the face of "existential threats" from terrorists and their state backers. In a June 7, 2006 National Review article entitled "Is Bill Clinton Still President?" AEI scholar Michael Ledeen characterized the "appeasement of North Korea" thus: "We're offering light-water reactors, which aren't as dangerous as heavy-water reactors, we won't give them anything unless they agree to stop enrichment, blah, blah, blah. All of which is true, and totally insane, since a madman is, famously, a person who thinks that he will produce a different outcome by doing the same thing over and over again."
