Great! That way you can avoid answering Hugh Hewitt’s charge that Dobson was the victim of poor reporting. We expect more from you not less.
Jeff,
You rightfully criticize Iranian regime for blocking, filtering and in general, censoring and creating all kind of obstacles on the way of Iranian internet users and bloggers.
I wonder what you have to say about similar actions that are being taken by US-based Internet hosting companies against private Iranian sites.
You usually pick up fast on these issues, I wonder what happened now. I wonder if is is because the new Censorship is conducted, not by Iranian government, but by the American firms? They are both acting undemocratically. Are they not?
Anyhow, I hope you have a safe trip.
Were they legitimate sites or terrorist promoting ones?
(CBS-11 News
Websites for the Al-Qaeda and Hamas terrorist organizations disappeared Tuesday from Dallas servers after a CBS-11 News report. Two Al-Qaeda websites and two for Hamas that were up Monday night were no longer available after the report exposed the posting of fresh suicide bombing films and extremist Islamic web sites on Internet web servers operated by the Dallas-based company The Planet.)

Faramin, I have a similar post, An Islamic website that is running vidoes and such has a post that I have roughly tranlated ( though, my arabic is not very good) to be instructions for insurgents on how to choose Iraqi’s homes to hideout. I think the title of the post says, To Choose Peoples Homes, and 3 of the following 4 lines start with the words, Faithful areas or zones.
No prominant pundits seem to want to press that this site be taken down, Though I think a few blogs have the influence to bring attention to the matter.
oh yeah, here is the link

Kat,
Next time, I will ask them to seek your approval.
Kat , the sites I linked to are still active and recently upated, there are videos there which attempt to protray shooting down US forces.
Zed, thanks. I did look. Made me sick. I wonder if Weisburd and his Internet Haganah
know about the ones you linked.
