Victor Davis Hanson brilliantly sums

Victor Davis Hanson brilliantly sums up the long, tragic history of appeasement and places President Bush on a historical continuum with Demosthenes, Don Juan (“Gentlemen, the time for counsel is passed and the time for fighting has come”) and Churchill. Sadly, he concludes that human nature will always dispose the majority toward appeasement.
