Appeasement: Will it Work?

As of recently a measure was passed that would give North Korea hundreds of millions of dollars in food and aid if North Korea would end their nuclear program. This measure is being paid for by six countries. The U.S. is one of them.
This measure being put into effect is not what we have come to expect from the Bush administration and its war on terror. It is heavily reminiscent of Neville Chamberlain's policy of appeasement with pre WWII Germany. The policy of appeasement did not work then and I highly doubt it will work in this case either. Giving North Korea aid will not achieve the intended effects if we look at what has happened historically when malicious dictators said they would stop their programs of domination if they just were given this or that. There is no evidence to suggest that North Korea will give up their nuclear weapons program, even after the aid. Others have broken their promises of cessation of hostilities and as the historical evidence points to the fact that the policy of appeasement has failed in the past I think it unlikely that it will work at this time. Let us pray however that it will.
