Why didn't he shoot him...


I don't remember his name, but when Sarah was helping Nick deliver those boxes in Cambodia, the general person and his men found those intelligent files and guns, right? So why didn't he shoot him after him and Sarah kicked Nick? Instead he just spat on him like Sarah did...could someone please explain this to me?

...but why is the rum gone?

They didn't shoot him because there was still about a half hour to go in the movie.

P.S.-- I think Angelina's MAMMOTH lips scared him.

They never shot him becaue they thought that everyone was in it and when Sarah started beating him up too they didn't know what to do and jus left him to her

They didn't shoot him because being beat up by a women is the most humiliating thing that can happen to a man (in there beliefs) and so leaving him alive to bare the shame of having gotten kicked and spit on by a women was much more punishment then dying.

Yea, and the general got his money too. So, I guess he figured why kill the poor sap. He just got beat up by a woman. I wondered about that too, but this is the way the commentary explained it. The general had everything he wanted.
