Dave,

I have no idea how a web page that "showed the film's title, "Fitna"
("Coming Soon"), and an image of a gilded Koran." can "violates its
terms of service."

This is very disturbing. This type of thing happens in China and other
non-democracy nations. The Countries in question are all democracies.
Network Solutions is a US company, the web site was hosted on a server
in Canada and Geert Wilders lives in Amsterdam.

There were no messages of hate. There was nothing on the page that
would be found to be "objectionable material of any kind or nature."

What I find objectionable is that this happening at all.

This has nothing to do with responsible and ethical service provided
by Network Solutions.

This link to International Herald Tribune provides more insight to the problem:
