Interesting. Your example shows that bribery can be executed even without cooperation by the bribers.

I'm not sure if this should be called bribery or extortion.

Perhaps, but I categorized it as bribery: pay some money to cross this or that hurdle. We did not _have_ to go to Syria, as we are just tourists. But I had no hard feelings; we anticipated something like this, and considering that it was only about a $100, in retrospect, I'm very, very glad I got to see the country before the war.

It's a very small difference to be honest.
