At, I am sure that we all join you in condemning the terrorists there and
everywhere- and anyone else that uses force to try to get their way. I did
however think that the 2 MILLION response from the US was a very celver
one to incentivize capture of the terrorists- it is a sum that would
appeal to most people in Kenya, the US and elsewhere in the world. 2
billion would be too much for what is hopefully a one-off incident, and 1
million would be too little for many who may have information. Anyway, I
thought it was quite a good response, lets hope that it bears fruit.
