Comments on: U.S. Companies Still Host Terrorist Websites http://pjmedia.com/blog/us-companies-still-host-terrorist-websites/ Wed, 15 Feb 2012 21:55:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: chaney http://pjmedia.com/blog/us-companies-still-host-terrorist-websites/#comment-497547 chaney Mon, 01 Mar 2010 10:09:24 +0000 http://pajamasmedia.com/?p=55478#comment-497547 It's impossible and unfair to expect one host to police all the content on the web. But if a terrorist site is still around after complaints are made, then the company must be shut down, because America’s safety comes before the rights of terrorists. But also because the host may well be a terrorist-friendly sponsor. Some good points here. It’s impossible and unfair to expect one host to police all the content on the web.

It's not just islamic etremists sites that they're recieving profit from either. If you google terrorist sites or key words to be on those sites like beheadings, a litany of site pop up from all types of organizations. I was surprised to see a russian nazzi terrorist site among them. I would like to see policy extended so that we do not do buisness with internaltional countries that enable and profit off of facilitating these web sites of hate.

Their other customers should be named and shamed. Their employees should be named and shamed. Its disgusting. Does anyone know of an organisation or website dedicated to doing just that? Seems like a good idea. These companies should be named and shamed. Their other customers should be named and shamed. Their employees should be named and shamed. Its disgusting.

And to do so by bombing English homes that have radios. Additionally, the use of buzz words is useful for finding out where to look and read and try to come to a rational conclusion. To use the same words as the trigger for removal will wrongully eliminate legitimate and useful speech. Raymond Ibrahim, for example, would be unable to publish his findings without running afoul of this cyber-censor. There is NO subsitute for thoughtful, painstaking, and monetarily expensive, human judgement on the part of the providers. Requiring that they spend for such matters without giving compensation in return would appear to be an unfunded mandate of dubious legality. Then we come to the question of trying to eliminate postings just because somebody does not emotionally like the content of the posting. If one of these companies starts doing that, the effected parties can always go to another company. Bring the government in and the innocent parties have no place to go. The only items available to the public will then be the various and sundry forms of the "politically correct". Our base of knowledge will then be the equivalent of "education" by memorizing the Quran. Pardon me, but is that not the goal of all them thar jihadists? Shore is. In short, unless it can be objectively established that these websites actually play a role in maintaining enemy capabilities, leave the annoying s.o.b.s alone. PS: And kindly do not tell me that there is no intelligence value in their obscenities. Perusing websites such as these shows (a) what their emotional appeal consists of and (b) what alterations in that appeal are being made. For example: The notorious phots from Abu Gharib are alleged to have recruited innumerable new jihadists. Is this true or not? I have not done the kind of website-surfing that I recommend above. However, initial indications are that the photos generated big yawns in the mideast and the only outrage was in the west. The proposal(s) in the article amount to cutting off our own noses in order to spite their faces. Or so it seems to me. No. No. No.

U.S. companies still do business with most of those multinational companies doing business with those countries--Iran and Syria-- that are prone to creating man made natural disasters; or in less politically correct terms, acts of terrorism. Hey, the kinder gentler baby boomers are in charge now. We win wars by redefining them out of existence, don't Bogart that joint, my friend. What did you expect?
