You cannot negotiate with terrorists: They will always want more, including you.
I love this particular “thank you” note they left behind.
All warm & fuzzy, I bet.
Wonder if bezbub can UNdonate his 10 mill??
How dumb.
I wonder how much more he will donate.
If Bezos doesn’t see to GTFO of Seattle with them openly going after him personally with the Amazon tax and cries to tax billionaires, he’s hopelessly stupid. Frankly, I never thought of him as hopelessly stupid.
$10 Mill to a company that size may be the equivalent of change in the sofa cushions that they thought might appease the mob, but that’s pretty damned stupid, too. Of course, that might be some PR guy and not the executives.
Ten Million dollars at the Terrorist Working Level is $100 pay for an illegal act paid for 100,000 times. Even if the upper level Communist Criminals siphon off 90%, the number is still 10,000 instances of criminal acts.
Che and Fidel got a lot farther with a whole lot less.
It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray;
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say: —
“We never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that pays it is lost!”
– R. Kipling.
Kipling knew, from the history of Britain, what happened when they DID pay the Danes the gold they demanded…
Giving your enemies what they want does not make them your friends.
