Google Anti-Libertarian?

OK, suppose a group commits actual hate crimes against Google employees over many years in an ongoing campaign of terror and genocide. They do this because they claim it is God's will that the entire Google empire either go to work for Yahoo or admit its inferiority to Yahoo and pay Yahoo a special tax just to be allowed to live. Not to live in peace, mind you, but just to be left alive.

Meanwhile, you begin to report on these atrocities, which involve murder, unimaginable torture, rape, slavery, sexual slavery of minors, piracy, maiming, beheading, massacres of whole villages, the wholesale suppression of all civil liberties (especially freedom of religious expression and freedom of speech and of the press) and general mayhem. Much of this insensible aggression is actually internecine strife which continually wastes the best of Yahoo land. What does Google do? Google suppresses your freedom of speech by banning your online content from its search engine. You see, by reporting this groups actual hate crimes, publicly acknowledged and bragged about by the criminal gang which committed them, you are guilty of "hate speech."

Sound insane? Absolutely, but this is exactly what Google has done in real life. Of course Googlies are not the victims. The victims are people of all faiths who are persecuted all over the world by Islamists. Without a doubt the majority of these victims are themselves adherents of Islam, but they are the wrong brand of Islam, from the wrong tribe or simply submitting to the the wrong ruler.

Here is the letter from Google explaining why they banned New Media Journal:

Hi Frank,

Thanks for writing. We received numerous reports about hate content on your site, and after reviewing these reports, decided to remove your site from Google News. We do not allow articles and sources expressly promoting hate speech viewpoints in Google News (although referencing hate speech for commentary and analysis is acceptable).

For example, a number of the complaints we looked at on your site were found to be hate content:

http://www.newmediajournal.us/staff/stock/05082006.htm
http://www.newmediajournal.us/guest/imani/04222006.htm

We hope this helps you understand our position.

Regards,

The Google Team

Here are currently active links to these three articles mentionsed in Googles complaint:
Article 1
Article 2
Article 3

In addition to The New Media Journal, they banned MichNews.com and The Jawa Report.

NMJ reports:

Google is on a political and ideological campaign of political correctness that sees them denying access to their service to any website - be it news, opinion or a hybrid of both - that dares to address the subject of radical Islam.
