Iceland--A Terrorist Nation?

Now an article titled "Iceland, Mired in Debt, Blames Britain for Woes" from The New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/02/world/europe/02iceland.html?_r=1&em&oref=slogin) does not sound too interesting, something along the lines of two students quarreling on the school playground.

However, in freezing the British assets at an Icelandic bank, the British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, had to invoke a 2001 antiterrorism law. Think about this, Iceland housing Osama bin Landen proteges? They'd be freezing their butts off!

I don't see why Britain would classify Iceland as a terrorist nation, unless the Vikings are back to their bloody seafaring days.
