Oh yeah. Duh. Sorry, precaffeine posts, wasn't putting "registrar" in the proper context.
I was thinking "The entity who registered" not "the entity that handled the registration"
My bad.
(at least I got a chuckle out of it though.)

It's a host record for the domain terrorists.net. They also had an editorial comment on Apple done in the same fashion; apparently, they approve of the fruity company.
