Hamm, overslept today in spite of falling off early last night. Not sure what's up with that, it's not like I feel sick or overtired or anything. Oh well, it could have been worse; I could have been awakened by the G-Man, but I wasn't. At least I don't think I was.

The decision was far more complex than bowing to terrorist pressure. It came down to weighing up principles vs lives, and they chose differently, perhaps, to how you personally (or America at large, or France, UK etc) would choose. It was nothing to do with wimping.

Possibly. Looked like caving to a terrorist threat to an awful lot of folks, though, and I still haven't seen anything concrete to dispute that idea (and you think it would have been brought up by now).
