There will be no appeasement done here though I hardly see what it would matter to a libertarian since there is no foreign policy I can see which Libertarianism could pursue that would be consistent with its philosophy. Why would a Libertarian object to appeasement since they are adamently anti-State and object to just the increments of state power which would make a foreign policy possible?

Weak states cannot have a foreign policy since the effectiveness of any such policy demands a strong national will and strong national state. Others are ignored by the world community.

To say that we are not posed to buy off the DPRK, and if we do, it is not appeasement...well, that's just silly. You know it, too, but you think that you can't admit it without saying Bush is a bad guy. I happen to think he's generally NOT a bad guy. I just don't like the idea of paying Kim Jong Il to go away.
