I have just read David Hornik’s peace on appeasement. It is a brilliant and convincing analysis of world political developments over the past sixty years. I only regret that he does not include in it one major act of appeasement which to my mind is seriously damaging the U.S. led war on Terror. This act of appeasement is paradoxically committed by the very President now responsible for conducting the war on Terror. It is the coddling and courting of Wahabi Saudi Arabia , a courting and coddling which includes the ignoring of the vicious anti- American propaganda prevalent in the educational system of the Kingdom, and the ignoring of Saudi funding for various terror operations throughout the world.
