That is, it is Scorpio, who planned Cypress Creek, "for the workers of Globex Corporation."

Hank Scorpio not only holds the Dooms Day Device and seizes the East Coast, but also achieves a rare mark of decent human being (beyond the killing of British spies and final showdown with US military troops of course).
A predominant theme in most James Bond movies and characters Hank Scorpio was based upon is megalomania and demands of total loyalty and worship by subordinates.
While Hank does threaten the UN with harsh words and blowing up a bridge (you almost have to if trying to get anything done), you never see or hear him talking down to employees.

Everything from the 'I work For Monty Burns' song at the beginning, to the 'Scorpio' at the end, was full of fun and laughs.
Two of my favourite scenes; the first, when James Bont is shot and killed; the second, when, as he's walking out of the office, Homer kicks away a grenade, which explodes off screen.
Hank Scorpio was interesting too, and Homer taking the job seriously was also fun to watch.

 Terrorist attacks in Bali. | Samizdata.net
Indonesia as a whole is majority muslim, and I think there's a general impression that the (national) government didn't investigate as thoroughly or aggressively as it probably should have the last time 'round.
That said, Hank's idea (at least, as I'm reading it) that we should punish Indonesia as a whole by boycotting their tourist industry is not irrational.
So I guess the message here is kill some infidels and you'll get two years with time off for good behavior, have a couple tabs of ecstasy on you and you'll do 20 years in a third world prison.

What Hank Scorpio does not begin to understand is that the issue here is one of epistemology.
The problem is that people watch the media and then falsely conclude that they have what they presume is "knowledge" or "understanding." They do not.
Nah, just kidding folks, actually I was referring more to the offensive idea that foreign criticism aimed at the handling of this disaster can be automatically equated with that debate get-out clause that is the `anti-American` accusation.
