There is absolutely no way that IANA's role as the pointer to ccTLDs in the root can be done without politics.
of course; but you're arguing aginst a straw man. CENTR said IANA "must not deal with policy," and i said ICANN "has insistently politicized -- or, more accurately 'policized' -- its conduct of the IANA function." the point isn't some imaginary apolitical realm; rather, it's that the IANA function should be conducted as minimally and neutrally as possible. the fact that that conduct can't be 'pure' in some platonic sense hardly justifies ICANN's abuse of its authority to pursue its parohical agenda.
cheers,
