hate sites in the Search Engines - [URL

Hello,
Please be aware
that your site links to a hate group, called
"Jew Watch" (www.jewwatch.com). By linking to
this hate group, you are helping their web site
in the search engines. How?
(1) A portion of
your Google Page Rank (PR) is transferred
through each outgoing link, bolstering the
Google PR of every site to which you link. PR is
one factor in the Google
algorithm.
(2) Another factor
in Google's algorithm is the site's estimated
"importance," which is based upon the number of
other sites that link to it. Especially if the
other sites also contain the word
"Jew."
IMPORTANT: By the
way, Google-bombing will NOT remove this hate
site from search engines. Quite the contrary,
because Google-bombing increases the hate site's
Google PR and "importance." For example, if you
Google-bomb JewWatch for the keyphrase, "Hate
Site," then it will eventually rank highly for
BOTH "Hate Site" and "Jew." Surely, this is not
the result you were hoping for.
Here is the only
EFFECTIVE method to hurt JewWatch: - DO NOT
provide live hyperlinks to JewWatch. - DO
provide plenty of live hyperlinks to anti-hate
web sites, especially those that are optimized
for the keyword "Jew".
INFO FOR ACADEMIC
PURPOSES: You can still provide the valuable
service of informing your visitors to the
existence of hate sites, without providing a
"live" hyperlink to them. For example, you can
provide the URL as text, only. This is very easy
to do. Please help educate other webmasters, as
well, not to provide live hyperlinks to hate
sites.
