The Microsoft Network's "death2israel" online "community," whose
existence we  noted yesterday
http://opinionjournal.com/best/?id=105001963#death , was gone by last
night. But MSN seems to be a magnet for hate groups:
- Dump Israel Now  http://communities.msn.com/DumpIsraelNow/home.htm ,
which declares: "It truly is a JEWnited States of America."
- Antizionism  http://communities.msn.com/antizionism/home.htm , which
promises to "use all the possibilities to advocate the Palestinian
courageous resistance").
- Defenders of the Reich
http://communities.msn.com/DefendersoftheReich/home.htm , which
features a prominent picture of Hitler waving a Nazi flag.
- THE ELITE SS  http://communities.msn.com/THEELITESS/home.htm .
Apparently not elite enough to afford lowercase characters, this
features a
charming essay that begins: "WHEN EVER THE JEW AND THEIR NON JEW
CO-CONSPIRITORS MOVE THERE ARE ALWAYS 4 FACTORS."
- Aryan Action  http://communities.msn.com/AryanAction/home.htm , whose

members "follow the concepts of National Socialism" and aim for "a
brighter and Whiter future."

We'll let you know if these survive the next 24 hours.
