Everybody's abuzz about the "Islam is" fracas at Google - good! It's about time people woke up to the deliberate censorship based on cowardice that many of the world's organizations and institutes are engaging in.
In this latest censorial flap in which some see Google as blatantly suppressing its results or suggestions, when the keyphrase "Islam is" is typed into its search engine box nothing shows up, unlike "Christianity is," which returns suggestions including "bullshit" and "false." Judaism, Buddhism, atheism - these all are followed by abusive remarks when the word "is" is included after them, but not Islam!
Now, it isn't just this part alone that makes you smell a rat - that would be evidence enough of a deliberate "intimidation jihad." No, if you start typing things you KNOW should show up in the top suggestions on Google, such as:
"Islam is evil"
"Islam sucks"
The phrase does not return any suggestions, even though you are sure that you have typed it many times before.
Working against this conspiracy theory, however, is the fact that "Muhammad is" brings up some salty language indeed, including "a false prophet," "the antichrist" and "satan." As does "Koran is," which produces "evil" among the results. Also, "Islam evil" brings up the following (text continues below):
While it may be that Google is deliberately censoring itself - based on real or perceived threats, a fact in itself that says much about Islam and public perception of it - it may be that there is in fact a glitch with the "is" of both words in the keyphrase in question. Especially when one considers that "Acharya is" also brings up a big fat goose egg!

I guess my last paragraph is the probability?

Economist on "Islam in America", contributed some thoughts from religious conserv perspective http://bit.ly/86m247

Please visit the following URL:

This is self explanatory.

I was aware of Google's response, which is why I concluded the article thus, with a reference to this "glitch":

Someone above has pointed out that "Acharya is" yields the same non-results.

|2010-01-16 16:22:40 Mark - Google is...Big Brother!For about 10 years now or how ever long Google has been popular, I have been telling Truth Seekers: "Do not trust nor use Google! I have been warning my computer customers all this time too. Google has been invading our privacies illegally right from their beginnings.
Many Truth Seekers and Truthers have had Google censoring them for years.
Finally people are learning. Use ixquick.com or scroogle.org instead.
Also Google bought "doubleclick", one of the more annoying bits of adware/spyware out there. I use Firefox and the NoScript and AdBlock plugins. I block everything related to or owned by Google.
I do not Google; I am a Truth Seeker.

are you insane? invading your privacy? all global electronic communication, internet and phone, is monitored for our safety, mostly by very big and powerful computers, so in reality nothing we do online is secret. but i guess being a troofer puts you in the category of 'enemy of the state' 'cos you got the inside dirt on the 911 job. maybe the zionist freemason illuminati secret squirrel is onto you! better watch out, he might find your nuts:-)

My recent experience with google does remind me of your warning and I would tend to agree with you on your observation. There is something wrong with the Google. May be that is why I can not get into to read your replies, you may recall my complains to you earlier. That problem still persists and I get the same reply of the error I told you, even now. I can not understand the reason for, though. Strange.
Dr. O. P. Sudrania
Guess what happened!
