A Memorable Moment in Appeasement History
"The Iranian nation is brave enough that if one day we wanted to build nuclear bombs we would announce it publicly without being afraid of you."
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, taunting the West--as reported here--on February 11, 2010, following a year of failed attempts by the Obama administration to engage (appease) a nuclear-arming, Islamist nation that muses openly about "a world without America and Israel."
