Surrender is when you say, "Please don't hurt me you bad men! Take my land and daughters instead!" Or something like that.

Walking away from a failed and ill-conceived venture is prudence.
Nah, I just put that in there as a silly response to your equally silly and opposite statement, "Right wing hawks would have us believe that “appeasement” means doing anything other than acting as though we have the right to control the world unilaterally."

When I see statements like, "All XXXX believe YYYY" it makes me cringe.
