Trump, threats and trade terrorism
His strategy may be to run around with a global trade suicide belt and threaten to detonate it
A TERRORIST threatened to detonate the suicide belt that was strapped to his body and to kill hundreds of people he has taken as hostages and who were being trapped in a building unless the government agreed to release 50 of his comrades from jail.
But after long and terrifying hours of negotiations between the terrorist and security officers, the terrorist agreed to remove the explosive belt and release the hostages, in exchange for the release of, and safe passage for, 10 of his comrades.
Would you start celebrating after learning the news and portray the release of the hostages as a "victory" for the government that succeeded, after all, in preventing the death of so many innocent civilians?
