Re: [ga] Saddam Hussein Finds A New Registrar

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

John and all assembly members,

  Thanks John for tracking and catching this.  It seems that the ICANN
Staff is ill equipped or is disinterested in doing so, which poses a raft
of other questions related to DNSO and Internet security.  The timing
also seems rather odd as well.  Perhaps the "All mighty Dollar" is
more important to the ICANN BoD and staff than Vigilance?!  I
hope not.  Lack of Vigilance is how the "Evil ones" spread their
evil!

  I wonder if godaddy is a ICANN accredited registrar?
