No.  No two ways about it, it's not GPL compatible.  Saying so won't
make it so.

If I incorporate code licensed under your crap license in my GPL
software, I would not be able to redistribute without imposing an
additional restriction on the receiver, which is that it must be dual
licensed with your crap license.  In essence you're sucking GPL code
into the crap license world, which closed source corporations can leech
off with no payment.  Of course the GPL does not allow that, so I can't
include crap license code and redistribute in the first place.  It isn't
GPL compatible (and entirely irrelevant for that very reason).
