Hi -- I fully know that IETF folk do not want to clutter up the list
with political stuff, but... I think shedding just a little more
light on this one event should be OK.
I sent that offending spam to a friend in Irvine, California, who
likes to dig deeper into things like this and he returned to me the
following research results, which you might find interesting.
I do not think there is much more to be said.
Best;-)...\Stef

Feeding his name as a search term into ixquick reveals that
Chossudovsky has been spewing such stuff for at least ten years.
I find it fascinating that it only took him a day to write the
Osama piece that was posted on Sept. 12. . . . :-)
