Our foreign policy for the last half century has been described by the word appeasement. It means that we were willing to support a dictator's oppression of his people as long as he did what we needed. We simply ignored the screams of his victims in exchange for regular trade or some such thing.
I'm so glad she explained what appeasement means. (and when did we change our stance with China, anyway? i must have missed that)
