What's Islam? Don't Ask Google
Foxnews ^ | 1/8/2010 | Staff

Type a few words into the search field on Google's home page and the engine automatically returns a helpful list of popular, similar searches for the words you've typed in so far -- a convenient way to find the right information.

Enter "Christianity is" and you'll find results that, while offensive, at least indicate common discussions on the Internet. Likewise, type "Judaism is" and Google suggests other, potentially offensive searches such as "Judaism is false" and "Judaism is not a race."

But type "Islam is" into the search engine and Google's auto-results pane mysteriously vanishes, leading some to conclude that Google, whose mantra is "don't be evil," is censoring its search results.

Everyone needs to go to Google and search for “google censors”.....perhaps then they will get the message when they review what people are searching for.

They’ve been censoring Christian content for years. You actually get a statement that the words you entered are similar to terrorism so they can’t help you. And isn’t Mr Google advising the Muzzie in the WH now, czar of something?

Obviously intimidated by the religion of peace. They should change their mantra to “don't wanna be blown up!”.

Let Former Muslim and well known critic of Islam Wafa Sultan explain Islam

“Please pay attention to my statement: I have decided to fight Islam. Not the political Islam. Not the militant Islam. Not the radical Islam. Not the Wahhabi Islam. But Islam itself. I truly believe that the West has invented these terms for the sake of being ‘politically correct’... Islam has never been misunderstood, Islam is the problem.”

Look for the quoted form “islam is” and there are more than 3 million matches. That’s over six times more than Judaism gets!
