I can't believe Sony gave in to them. Talk about rewarding the child for the temper tantrum and negotiating with terrorists. I wish the message had been "Go toss yourself, if you weren't such a horrible government we wouldn't be making movies like this". Now we have told the world "Sorry if we insulted, we were hoping you would see the humor in it, but if you really feel strongly about something we are doing just go ahead and threaten to murder our civilians and we would be happy to bend any way you want us to bend".

Apparently America DOES negotiate with terrorists, and caves into their demands.

What a sham.
