If America, as a sovereign nation, starts to bow down to this then it sets a bad precedence and is a prelude to other situations that will follow. Allowing a few hackers to bully an entire nation will only invite more bullying further down the road as it legitimizes hacking and empty threats as a strategy to achieve political goals. US should force the distribution of this movie for free just to prevent this type of thing from happening since Sony no longer plans to sell the movie. Sony has nothing to lose from doing this. Damage has already been done.
There's also another thread on this already.
