      Sælir,
Hér koma viðbrögð Mr. Peace 2000 við skömmum vegna málsins.  Mér virðast
þau lýsa algjörri vanþekkingu á efninu.
Það er gott mál að Íslandssími brást vel við kvörtunum vegna
þessa...spurning kannski hvað við, upplýsingatæknisamfélagið á Íslandi
getum gert í því að mennta notendur...þ.e.a.s. útskýra fyrir þeim hvað
svonalagað er illa séð.
Einhverjar tillögur?

Ég er Davíð Steinn Geirsson, eins og þú getur alveg örugglega séð neðst
í bréfinu mínu. Ekki það að það komi málinu neitt við, en ég vann hjá
Sólver einmitt við að sjá um þennan blessaða póstþjón ykkar. En ég er
nokkuð viss á því að það að safna addressum í spamlista eftir því hver
sendir manni bréf sé lögbrot á íslandi. Ég hef einmitt talað við annan
mann sem fékk þetta, sem er alveg öruggt að hefur ekki haft nein
samskipti við ykkur, þar sem það barst á kerfisstjórapóstfang hans. Enn
og aftur vil ég ítreka það við ykkur að hætta að senda spam, því næst
þegar ég fæ slíkt frá ykkur mun ég vinna í því að láta loka á ykkar
internettengingar (spamsendingar eru bannaðar í AUP (Acceptable Use
Policy) hjá flestum netþjónustum). Ég mun einnig leita lagalegs réttar
míns varðandi kæru.

PRESS RELEASE
The following is a translation from the website of Icelandic
newspaper
...
...
Morgunbladid - Easter Sunday 31 March 2002
President of Iceland urged to work for peace in the Middle East or
resign
...
from office.
Thor Magnusson, founder of Peace 2000 and former Presidential
Candidate of
...
Iceland, delivered an appeal to President of Iceland Mr. Olafur
Ragnar
...
...
Grimsson, to launch an Icelandic peace initative in the Middle East
or
...
...
resign from office.  A press release from Peace 2000 says that when
Mr.
...
Magnusson arrived at the Presidential Residence Bessastadir, the
President
...
had just got back from a jog, but spared a few minutes to talk to
the
...
...
guest.  The appeal of Thor Magnusson to Olafur Ragnar Grimsson, on
behalf
...
of Peace 2000, was the following:
"Now when the world stands on end because of the situation in Israel
and
...
Palestine and as our colleagues from European peace movements are
trying to
...
take up positions in the office buildings of the Palestinian Home
Rule
...
to
...
try to prevent the murder of President Arafat by the Israeli army, I
make
...
one more attempt at imploring you to use your position as President
of
...
...
Iceland for peace. Again I recall your promise when we were both 
Presidential candidates in 1996, that you would if elected, use the
office
...
of the President for peace activism. You underlined this many times
in
...
...
television interviews with references to your earlier work as a
peace
...
...
activist, and later reiterated this to me in personal meetings.
However,
...
now six years later you have done notthing.  The time has come for
you
...
to
...
show the solidarity that you promised to peace activism and keep
your
...
...
election promise!
The situation in the Middle East is rapidly developing into an
all-out
...
war
...
that may lead the a broader conflict, even to a world war within a
very
...
short time. This transformation of events in the age of nuclear
weapons
...
poses a real threat to the future of mankind, the future of Iceland
and its
...
subjects. Those people who in good faith elected you as their
President.  I
...
refuse to believe that you will continue occupying the Presidential
offices
...
and not even attempt to do anything for peace or to honor your
election
...
promises in this grave situation.
Peace 2000 partners have sent us the following news from the
situation
...
of
...
the Palestinian town of Ramalla.

US made helicopters of the Israeli army hover over the city

shooting at
...
buildings and people.

Israeli bulldozers are being used to make way for armoured tanks

in
...
...
residential areas.

The journeys of doctors, ambulances and aid workers have been

impeded.
...
Red Crescent workers are prevented from providing medical
assistance.
...
...
Israeli soldiers shoot at people on the streets of the city.

More than 500 civilians, including foreigners, gathered at an

Israeli
...
army barricade and ask soldiers to allow them leave the town. The
soilders
...
replied with gunshots over their heads, causing even more fear and 
resulting in most of the people fleeing back into the city.

Israeli soldiers have been holding civilians hostage and using

them
...
as
...
human shields. In some cases whole families and even tens of people
have
...
been isolated in one room, sometimes without food and drink, while
Israeli
...
soldiers have used their homes to take up armed positions all over
the
...
...
city.

Some districts of Ramalla are now lacking water and food. The

Israeli
...
army has impeded transportation. The Israeli army has even used the 
residents' food while they have used their apartments and houses as
armed
...
hideouts.

Large parts of the city are without electricity. Telephone lines

have
...
been cut. Civilians are kept in isolation and increasing numbers are
...
...
gripped by fear.

Soldiers are walking through the streets, taking prisoners and

calling
...
upon all men between the ages of 16 and 40 to "surrender". The
injured
...
are
...
denied medical care. There have been occurrences of executions by
army
...
...
personnel.

The Israeli army has driven tanks over civilian automobiles and

strewn
...
them in the street in front of the owners' homes. Personal
possessions
...
are
...
destroyed in house to house "visits" and army searches.

Five officers in the Palestinian security forces were found dead

in a
...
building that housed Arabian newsrooms, banks and the Internet
company
...
...
Palestinian Online. It is clear that these men were killed without
recourse
...
to trials or laws.

The Israeli minister Uzi Landau has said today that it is

important to
...
topple the Palestinian Home Rule from power. Another influential
person in
...
Israel, Eli Yishai, has today also called for increased and more
extensive
...
military action. Such actions are of course completely contrary to
the
...
will
...
of the international community and will only result in dramtatically
...
...
escelating the conflict and topple the world further towards a
global
...
war.
...
Peace 2000 has sent a proposal to the Icelandic Foreign Ministry
asking for
...
discussions regarding the ALTHING-JERUSALEM concept. The idea is
rooted in
...
the Althing meeting at Thingvellir the year 1000, when Thorgeir 
Ljosvetningagodi set the scene for an almost unbroken 1000 years era
of
...
peace in Iceland. Peace 2000 has been in contact with President
Arafat
...
and
...
the Palestinian Home Rule, together with many other parties in both
Israel
...
and Palestine, about the initiative. Those who have studied the
proposal
...
feel it is worthy of a closer examination, and that such an
initative
...
from
...
Iceland could play a part in bringing about lasting peace in the
Middle
...
East.
In light of the support Iceland gave to the founding of the state of
...
...
Israel, and recent escelation towards an all out war in the Middle
East,
...
the reticent response of the Icelandic authorities can only be
described as
...
a total lack of responsibility. Even people in ivory towers must
realize
...
that Iceland has a duty to do all in its power to stem against the 
bloodbath.
We have repeatedly also sent you appeals to use your Presidential
position
...
for peace initatives in the Middle East.  We have offered our
assistance
...
and support and this offer is now repeated. The undersigned is
prepared to
...
travel without delay to the Middle East as your ambassador if this
would
...
help. It is important that an Icelandic peace inititative is
launched
...
in
...
the area before the situation develops into a wider conflict or even
a
...
...
world war. We have cautioned against looking to the US for a
peaceful
...
...
solution.  The importance of our message has been further underlines
now
...
that US President Mr. George Bush has taken a firm partial stance
with
...
...
Israel and can no longer be regarded as an impartial party.
I refuse to believe that you, a former peace activist and former
head
...
of a
...
global peace network, will continue occupying the office of the
President
...
of Iceland without attempting to do anything.  That you will allow a
...
...
conflict develop that endangers the whole future of humankind
without
...
a
...
murmur.
If you, Mr Olafur Ragnar Grimsson, do not have the courage to act
for
...
peace
...
at this time of distress, I urge you personally, in light of your
election
...
statements in 1996, to immediately resign from your position as
President
...
of Iceland."
