It has nothing to do with his ideas, it could have been a cake cookbook for all I care. What matters is that he used terror to promote it, and shouldn't be rewarded with the attention he desired.

I'm not calling for government censorship of the document, and I'm not saying I agree with anonymous, but dismissing it as censorship ignores their actual, more noble intentions.

Ah, but there's the meat of our disagreement: "noble intentions". I don't see anything noble about an attempt at censorship, be it by private citizens or some government agency. How is this any different from proposing random edits be inserted into Mein Kampf or the Koran?
