I was under the impression that their statement was less of a challenge and more of a declaration as such:

"We mustn't be brought down."

You are almost certainly mistaken. The statement was followed immediately by the claim that Spamhaus has the largest network of DNS servers in the world.

I think that claim could also support that they "mustn't" be brought down.
