	Objectionable Yahoo Sites
I took a look at the anti-Zionist chatroom and, unfortunately, this is something we are probably just going to have to live with. The shutting down of the infamous Anti-Abortion website a year or so ago, which had people's names and addresses on it and lines drawn through the dead doctors was overturned on appeal. Basically, there is nothing to be done about this site. The courts have ruled that the internet is a free-for-all zone, and compared to other sites I have seen, these people will argue (even if Yahoo tried to control their content, which I doubt they will) that there stuff is tame. All they are doing is expressing opinions - legally they could even list addresses of "Zionist Rulers" if they wanted too and get away with it. From what I've read, about the only things you can't have online these days are child pornography and threats against the President of the U.S.
