Bat Bits

 

1. "Google is carrying paid ads for the Hamas terrorist organization’s military faction Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades. Google has said it will pull the ads and that it tries hard to filter ads from subversive groups like Hamas and the Boy Scouts Of America. “

   You sure this isnt a smear campaign by the french? after all they are also sueing google for carrying news from agencie french presse…

   Either google has stopped the ads quickly or they never existed.. I havent managed to get any of the Hamas ads to come up in my searches.. but maybe they are also only showing them on foreign language versions of the page too

2. The article in the link states that the ad comes up if you type “Hamas” IN ARABIC. Since I don’t have an Arabic keyboard I can’t verify that.

4. Infinity: I’ll be damned! It does have an ad link to the bastards and the link has a bunch of nasty pictures as well as writing I can’t understand.

   Nuke ‘em!

5. Google should have stayed with being a search engine and stayed out of politics.  Those with poor taste are, after all, under no obligation to prove it.

7. I hope you didnt click on the english tab on the alqassan page.... i made that mistake.. while the pictures at the top change from the terrorist with the rifle the rest of it seems basically the same.. I didnt feel like checking out any of their multimedia.. and of course somebody would market a fox blocker to liberals.. I guess they just dont have the brainpower to do this real simple thing I do when a moonbat comes on 1 of the other channels? that is known as flipping the channel with the birdy finger and doesnt cost me a dime?

8. Infinity, I think they want to mute Fox at its source, in classic totalitarian style.

   It would be typical.  I have yet to see a liberal who actually had an argument, let alone winning one.  So naturally, squelch the opposition.  And if that can’t be done, squeal like a stuck pig about how unfair it is.

9. and apparently google does filter objectible ads but their filter cant understand arabic.. maybe they should just not allow arabic ad placements..at least it seems in their best interest to figure out some solution, as if they dont do something they could be brought up with charges for sponsoring terrorist organizations…
