Google Gags Uruknet - More internet censorship

UPDATE!!! INFO FROM URUKNET Google must really have a thing against Uruknet. After Google News’ censorship now Uruknet disappears even on Google’s search engine.
Google stopped indexing Uruknet the middle of May. After Uruknet wrote (again!) many e-mails to Google (and again! we didn’t receive any reply) Google restarted indexing some (not all!) Uruknet’s article on June 17. However, it seems that these articles have a short life on Google since they keep disappearing immediately after they are indexed.
For instance this is a Google’s page saved today, June 19, at 3pm Rome time and this is the same search Google page, the same day at 10 pm Rome time - While the first page at 3pm shows the Uruknet’s article indexed by Google, in the second page’s results the article disappeared and Google left simply the Uruknet’s homepage. Moreover Uruknet’s articles indexed by Google before the middle of May are disappearing as if someone is manually deleting them. As odd it may seem, it’s as if someone inside Google deleted the indexed article.
Google has already stopped indexing Uruknet from Google News, justifying it with lies and preposterous excuses. Now it seems Google is deleting even those Uruknet’s articles that had already been automatically indexed by the search engine.
Furthermore Google search engine shows Uruknet’s results at the very last position, if at all.
Google’s censorship becomes very clear if one contrasts and compares the search of the word “uruknet” on Google and Yahoo.
Searching the word “uruknet” on Google this evening the results were 194,000.
On Yahoo the same word shows 1,550,000 results.
We don’t ask anymore our readers to write to Google since we lost even our last hopes in their fairness and good faith, but we would be grateful if our readers could post and distribute this article over the Internet; this affair goes far beyond Uruknet and Internet censorship is a real threat and is happening now.
Of course we reserve the right to take legal action against Google.
Desert Peace Editorial: One of my Associates, Uruknet.Info, is once again the victim of Google’s zionist inspired polices. Just a month ago, the co-founder of Google was in Israel to ‘celebrate’ its 60 years as an occupying power… he obviously was inspired by his visit as his Company’s policies seem to have shifted even more to the right than they were before his trip.

Google can do all they want , nothing really leaves the internet
Use the Take Me Back Machine there is a ton of articles indexed for that great site.
Also if you ever come across a dead link maybe the news media was forced to remove it, use the take me back machine it was most likely indexed there.
