Texas Company's Legal Troubles Hold .iq In Limbo

aducore writes "According to The Inquirer, the (American) company running the Iraqi .iq domain name .iq is under criminal indictment and cannot transfer control. So no Iraqi organization can get a .iq domain name, including the government. Iraq's National Communications and Media Commission and the U.S. administrator in Iraq are trying to get ICANN to free up the domain."

Why was a Texan company managing the .iq domains anyhow?

I'm guessing they somehow had ties to Bush.

Even I'm not sure if I'm trying to be funny!

Re:yes.. and let's not forget why this happened..

And Hamas is far from just a terrorist group. They provide a lot of "social services" to the people. The government, on the other hand, fails to do so. No wonder Hamas gains ground among the people.

So it's no big wonder that people get slightly pissed off (yes, that was an understatement) when the Israelis decide to slaughter Hamas leaders. And what is the result? Hamas gains more ground. Killing people is seldom the end to violence.

"Remember, kids - living in Texas != American, and since said Texans are now awaiting sentencing on charges of illegal export of computer equipment and funding Hamas, I'm pretty sure they are *not*, in fact, friends of Dubya.

Now mod this up to +5 informative so those jackasses down there will see it."

Modding up ain't gonna happen. Those facts might get in the way of a good Bush/USA bashing. What were you thinking!? Don't worry about it, as I'm sure those pesky facts will be revised in the next Michael Moore 'documentary'.
