Appeasement is NOT the answer.

That's why I prefer to remember this Pope for the way he used to be ---he was a staunch anti-Communist, he didn't say to appease them. I think age and illness has done him in, he has gone from the level of Ronald Reagan to the level of Jimmy Carter. I don't hold his illness against him anymore than I hold Reagan's illness against him. Reagan at least is protected by his loved ones, he's been kept out of the spotlight, but I suspect there are those in the Vatican who are using the Pope's medical conditions to promote their own agendas.

I've seen similar statements many times, but I've never seen any documentation. What makes you think that JPII is a "staunch anti-communist"? We know that he is currently best pals with Gorbachev, former communist leader and now the leader of the one-world new religions initiative. Maybe he was anti-communist before the fall of the Berlin wall. But I have never stumbled across any written material which supports that contention.
