Bob McCarty Writes

A BBC Radio producer called this morning to invite me to appear as a guest during the first hour of today’s WORLD Have Your Say program that airs at Noon (Central) or 5 p.m. (GMT). Today’s topic: When does diplomacy become appeasement?

After turning down several invitations during the past year, I decided to accept today’s invitation because of the subject matter being discussed. This will mark my fourth appearance on the program in the past two years.

During my most-recent appearance in April 2007, I discussed the crisis in Darfur. Prior to that, show topics included Nancy Pelosi, and the case of the so-called “Haditha Marines.”

If you’re interested in participating in the program, there are several ways to do that:

Call: +44 20 70 83 72 72

Send a text message: +44 77 86 20 60 80

Send an e-mail message: worldhaveyoursay@bbc.co.uk

Check back this afternoon as I’ll be posting an update after the show.
