Since when did we say they were terrorists? :confused:

We didn't.

I believe Anti Terrorist laws were used to stop Icelandic organisations withdrawing money in order for the Government to safeguard UK depositors.

the British government seized Icelandic assets in the UK under the Anti-terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001

What a ridiculous site.

Looks like the whole island has signed up. How sad (well not really) no one will take any notice of this.

Nope. The laws used where in the Crime bit of the act rather than the anti-terrorism bit of the act.

So they used the criminal act of the anti terrorism bill to stop Icelanders withdrawing money from Icelandic banks?

(This is the first I've heard of it by the by).

No they didn't, they used the crime section of the act.

Anyway methinks the Icelanders do protest too much!

So the Icelandic banks were going to take UK assets in Iceland to pay Icelanders? And this bill stopped that?
