Arab culture is confrontational and because of that they see appeasement as surrending and it makes them ask for more. Americans don't understand Arabs. American Leftists are too racist to even try to understand them.

israeli appeasememnt works better or maybe islamics understand appeasement as weakness and are smarter than 'progressives'; that is until they are divided and defeated

Americans are smarter than that. We know who are friends are and who are enemies. Ask the average American, and they disagree with Obama's appeasement policy. This Administration certainly doesn't represent me as an American. I know that the Arabs my President is appeasing are enemies and should be dealt with appropriately.

Brilliant article combined with alot of logical insight.

Depressing reading. Efforts to appease Islam encourage radical Muslims to continue on their inexorable jihad. The new appeasement policy may not be working for America but it sure is working against Israel. When the time comes, let’s hope that Israel will not ‘battle alone’ and that the American people remain steadfast in their support.

He destroyed an art display of an Israeli in Stockholm. That art was just expression of the conflict. But this ambassador destroyed and stopped the show. I can see why now.... right wing settler mentality ambassador.

thinking having been "set under" Rev. J. Wright for 20 years and having been influence by Min. Farakhan for nearly as much time.

10 to 20% of Muslims are radical but they seem to set the agenda on how we view all Muslims and cause most the problems. With 1.57B Muslims in the world we have to find away to live with them, wars can be a temporary option but looking at history it only takes one strong leader to united them, in which they become very dangerous.

Netanyahu is now the leader of the free world. Most Americans understand what must happen to the Iranian Mullacracy. All eyes are on Israel to begin the military assault. America will follow.

without doing ..policy is to do not to say only .amr mosa said the dangerouse is to involve with endless process of peace .. sure sadat did not think of an endlss process but sure words did nothing without doing

Mr Zvi Mazel was well respected in Sweden during his term in office. Many of us Swedes understood his reaction to the "art exhibition", which was on display only to demonize and discredit Israel. Excellently written article and analysis. Obama was all a show to get elected, now we see his true face.

Islam was conceived in the Arabian Peninsula a place where existence was hard and violence a daily fact. Islam would not have been accepted if it was a religion/ideology of love and kindness.Till today, violence and extremism animates Islam. What ever reason to express hate and violence, it will always be welcome : caricatures, difference in opinions, freedom of expression etc. Whoever does not agree with Islam is a target for hate and violence as explained at : http://xrl.us/bhi5pi

Name one time in history when appeasing an aggressor did not lead directly to disaster. Appeasement, gestures, unilateral compromise and any such action will always ENCOURAGE the aggressor. Appeasement is a -REWARD- for being hostile. What do you think it will lead to?

As far as Obama is concerned, his policy is a great success. He is a rabid anti-Semite, and bringing on Israel's isolation and destruction is precisely what he wants.

During George W. Bush's 8 years tenor, the damage with the Islamic World was demoralizing and outragous. 911 hurt us all yet US' approach to generalize and create an open war throughout the Islamic World is something worth remembering. Arabs are no one's enemies but Israel's for reasons we all know: stealing land for example and the list goes on! So chill out everyone and enjoy the coffee..

WELL WRITTEN!

praised Palestinian female suicide bomber, whom ex- israeli swede called "Snow white", and who blew 20 Israelis to their deaths in a restaurant. People like you can"t tell the difference between good and bad!!!

The art display paid hommage to a female terrorist !

The so called art display was the terrorist on a boat over a lake of blood of her victims-Israeli civilians going to a restaurant in Haifa. The so called artist is not an Israeli he renounced his Israeli citizenship. He was also involved in the organization of the hate flotilla to Gaza

it is suggested that "only" 10-20% of muslims are radical....well that's upwards of 320 million people bent on world domination and our destruction....and you suggest that we merely "learn to live with them" ???? Are you insane???

Who will compensate and when, this gigantic loss of US values propagated by this Obama administration.

The whole idea behind 911 was to create chaos. It's like push the right buttons and it happens. Everything that's happened was meant to happen by your deranged co-religionists. So what's the point?
