We’ve watched Law & Order enough times to know that you should never make the mistake of paying a blackmailer. Pay them once, the police always say, and they’ll keep coming back for more.
In a real world example of the same principle, the tiny island nation of Palau is “asking” the United States, its longtime sugar daddy, to ante up “aid” money for another 35 years.
Obama made the mistake of bribing Palau $200 million to take 13 Gitmo detainees. Now Palau is coming back for more water from the same well.
They’re proposing a 30-year extension to the Compact of Free Association between the two nations. That means they want the gravy train (or in this case, the gravy boat) to continue for a couple more generations.
Palauan negotiator Joshua Koshiba said Palau’s “offer” to take the Uighur terrorists was “a positive for the negotiation.”
“I can point my finger at them now and say, ‘See, we are helping you too, without asking for help only,”‘ he said.
Koshiba said Palau will weigh its options if Uncle Sugar Daddy won’t pay up.
“When you have a friend, if they don’t want to be your friend anymore, what do you do? Don’t you look for another friend?” Koshiba waxed philosophically.
We would also like to wax philosophically in response:
Screw you and the Uighurs you rode in on, Palau.
