Ah, yes, uhm, how should i put this politely without offending anyone or getting too political?

Let's try this in the form of a press statement or an official customer reply formletter.

"After i voiced my personal displeasure in public that a country in eastern europe is disrupting the peace and putting its nuclear arsenal on high alert, cyber attacks on my server have increased dramatically. To continue to be able to serve as many people as possible with the limited hardware resources at my disposal, i was reluctantly forced to implement GeoIP blocking for certain, limited regions of Europe and Asia.

Unfornutately, according to my current copy of the GeoIP database, your IP falls into one of those blocked regions.

I'm very sorry about the temporary inconvenience, these measures will be relaxed as soon as the cyber attacks slow down to the usual background level that's normal for an internet connected host."

Sorry about that :-(
