When two sides are unable to agree on an acceptable resolution, the result is either diplomatic negotiation, or war. The funny part comes when those who refuse to enter into a diplomatic negotiation and DEMAND war then send someone ELSE'S kids to die for their self-righteous, hypocritical sense of morality. It's the coward's way!

Some people in Europe back in the 1930's negotiated with Adolf Hitler to appease him. THAT worked out real well didn't it?
These terrorists that we are fighting don't want peace. It's that simple.
Bill Clinton tried appeasement with North Korea. He paid them billions to get them to cancel their nuclear weapons program. They took the billions and kept right on doing what they were doing.
The only thing these evil people understand is force. Make no mistake either...They are EVIL!
They kill innocent people to attain power through fear and intimidation. Unfortunately it falls on the shoulders of the biggest kid on the block to stand up to them and that happens to be us (USA). Thank God we have a president with the balls to do it.
"they" are not 'evil' - it's not about 'us vs. them' - that's old school. They see us as 'evil' and the cycle continues. They value their autonomy as much as we value our democracy. We HAVE to think globally. And we have to butt out of their region - we have no business spreading our 'greasy fast food gluttonous infidel' values in their territory.

Your name calling is only making my point for me. People as intellectually inferior as you seem to be make up the majority of the liberal opinions on this site.

I think in the current context, a better question would be: Is appeasement diplomacy?
No, it's capitulation. Negotiation is diplomacy.
Another poor question. It is too vague. In fact poor diplomacy can be appeasement.
Exactly. 'Stop doing that or we will go to war with you' is also diplomacy.
