Are Icelanders Terrorists?

So Gordon Brown has said he is willing to use anti-terrorism legislation to freeze the assets of Icelandic companies operating in Britain. He wants to recoup money lost by public bodies and charities here who invested in the Icelandic banks.Which confirms the suspicions of the sceptical among us that the "anti-terrorist laws" are seen as a useful tool more easily to control the already over-controlled population. It's already been used for local offences against parents and people careless about their litter. What next? The proposal to bring in 42-day detention without trial? (Now, happily, that has been defeated!)Pity, in that case, that Gordon didn't use the handy anti-terrorism laws to bring those reckless speculators in the City into line. It might have helped to avoid the crash?
