Reader comment on item: [Appeasement Explains] Why Europe Balks
Submitted by amiexpat (Netherlands), Feb 3, 2003 at 07:34
all true - and to be honest all valid..but as an American living in Europe, I have yet to see these reasons mentioned openly.
Instead, the many Europeans (i.e. France and Germany) act as though they are acting
strictly for moral reasons - as if they invented peace - ha!
