Beyond parody: Newsweek International editor Fareed Zakaria exults that finally, an American president is banishing the influence of Winston Churchill from American foreign policy.

He also notes, “Obama is trying to break the dynamic that says when an American president negotiates with the Chinese or Russians, he must return with rewards or concessions – or else he is guilty of appeasement.”

I wonder how Zakaria defines appeasement, since he thinks it doesn’t include when you go meet with someone, give them something they want, and get nothing in return.
