Just thought I’d give everyone an update on the last story posted: The Alex Jones Channel is back on, and Alex is back to helping out folks when he can through the front line that is Youtube. Like it or not, this is where the “ratings” are for people that don’t have major networks behind them (and controlling their every move and thought).
One victory for the Common Folk. They can happen.

Yes, the Anvil was hacked yet again yesterday morning. That makes three times in the past 11 days.
Do not panic. I can and will weather the storm. I fully expect such attempts to continue, just as all the other forms of censorship and abuse have come my way since going full-time and full-tilt with this blog back in January of 2007. Death threats haven’t killed me. Digg.com banning me hasn’t stopped me. Fatwa-worthiness hasn’t scared me off. Extortion didn’t shut me down. Hackers help build my traffic and reputation.
The First Amendment. It guarantees my Right to Free Speech. Yet, here we are 6 months later, after I originally brought up the issue of Foehammer.com (sister domain to Foehammer.net) being listed as a ‘hate site’, and it is still unchanged from or has reverted back to “1.Violence/Hate/Racism” categorization by SonicWall, one or the other.
I cannot abide censorship and so I am once again asking that you take a minute and follow the instructions originally listed in the an article here mid-way through 2007:

The Religion of Peace Needs Our Help! No, not that ‘Religion of Peace.’
An individual that I refuse to name here again (but many of my regular readers will know of and who’s name may be found quoted below) has targeted the gentle folks at The Religion of Peace in an effort to shut down the site just as he attempted to shut down the Anvil and Jihad Watch and others. The results of this phony reverend’s actions provoked a number of internet companies to incorrectly categorize The Religion of 
Peace. These incorrect categories have caused the site to be listed as a hate site, and consequently blocked by some servers. I know that the accusations made by Sutter, and the various companies are patently false. The Religion of Peace provides accurate facts about Islam – not lies. The site is not racist. Islam is not a race but a political and cultist ideology. The Religion of Peace speaks out against all violence that is directed towards non-Muslims and Muslims alike.
From the editor at TheReligionofPeace.com:
Anyone who has a blog that attempts to defend the west from radical Islam or Marxists knows that they are constantly at risk of being labeled racist, and shut down by individuals and organizations who do not want the truth to be known. The efforts to silence our voices will increase. We are all in this fight together. Therefore, it would be greatly appreciated if all of you would post a notice on your blogs, urging your readers to support The Religion of Peace by sending protest e-mails to the offending companies. Islam and the thought police are coming after all of us. Free speech is in jeopardy. We need to pull together into a strong and united force to combat those who intend to crush us.
I have permission to make this appeal on their behalf and I am happy to do so.
Please write to the email addresses listed below and state clearly that The Religion of Peace – http://www.thereligionofpeace.com (include the url in the e-mails) is against violence, not racist and should be categorized appropriately under labels such as General News, Politics and Religion.

Here is in-depth analysis of the situation and the problem:

This will be old news to many but good news to all. Jihad Watch chief Robert Spencer disclosed news a few days ago that SonicWall has finally lifted the block on his site. For more information on this ongoing fight against censorship of bloggers, I refer you to the intrepid 1389.
4 CommentsI am just about on my way out of the hotel room (no Pinot Noir in mine, Greg) to Dartmouth College for my final Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week talk, but I thought I’d relay some good news I just heard from the crack legal team over at The Becker Law Firm.
I’m being pressed, pestered and bothered; a long few weeks of dealing with the results of censors and attempts to destroy the traffic flow to the Anvil. And still I am winning.
However, I am definitely being distracted by this useless waste of my energies.
It doesn’t look like such attempts are going to end anytime soon either. Today I noticed that my most harmless web presence of all, my music profile on MySpace, has been mysteriously deleted without warning. I just sent an inquiry to MySpace.

The ‘lite’ mirror of Foehammer’s Anvil (foehammer.net) is located at http://foehammer.com and is currently mis-rated by SonicWALL as I type this:
Category 1: Violence/Hate/Racism
I noticed this after doing what has now become a weekly habit of mine: checking my status with censors. That’s sad, isn’t it? As if I have time to waste.
Please help me out again by sending in a new ratings request for Foehammer.COM to SonicWALL. I suggest 31 - Web Communications.

Anvil readers helped fix this sort of problem before and I know you’ll do it again. Thank you in advance!
This is also as good a time as ever to unveil a WWII era poster that I adapted for the 1389blog.com campaign to Stop Blog Censorship! By the look of things it also appears that 1389 could use a hand with SonicWALL, too. These companies get paid to be this bad at what they do? 
Are you paying attention? Big Brother Lives.
Help put a stop to idiotic, negligent and often seditionist censorship activities that are dampening down an already beleaguered portion of the Blogosphere — the Anti-Jihad Movement.
See for yourself that “content filtering” is nothing more than privatized censorship.

From my ally over at the 1389blog.com:
20 CommentsWe have won one battle!
An Anvil Victory against Censorship: a Victory for All confirms that SonicWALL and Panera Bread will no longer be censoring Foehammer’s Anvil. 1389 would like to thank all of you who participated in this effort.
But the war is far from over.
“The war is far from over? What’s that supposed to mean?”
It means that this is not the time for us to rest.
It appears official: SonicWALL Internet Security has re-rated Foehammer’s Anvil from pornography to web communications. This would not have happened without the efforts of Anvil readers and my fellow bloggers and 1389 deserves the greatest credit and thanks for discovering this particular censor in the first place and disseminating the needed information to so many people.
I feel that this is not only a Free Speech victory for the Anvil, but a victory for the entire Blogosphere and especially the Anti-Jihad portion of it.

Well, here we go again. This time it’s cartoonist Berkeley Breathed of Bloom County and Opus fame that is feeling the pinch of Dhimmi American media and the ongoing tug-of-war with Muslim “sensitivities.” It seems that the latest (August 26th) and upcoming (September 2nd) Opus comic strips are just too hot for quite a few (c. 25) American newspapers to publish. What’s the problem? Surely the ‘Religion of Peace and Nature’ isn’t going to stir up a ruckus over a cartoon?
You can view the August 26th Opus comic for yourself here.

3 CommentsST. PETERSBURG - For the first time in nearly five years, controversial Christian televangelist Bill Keller is going off the air.
Keller - known for his vitriolic criticism of religious, political and pop culture figures - said Thursday his program was yanked in response to pressure from local Muslims.
Earlier this month, officials from the Council on American Islamic Relations wrote to executives at CBS asking them to investigate Live Prayer with Bill Keller, an hourlong nightly program.
