On January 7 of this year, I published an article at PJ Media about Amazon removing doormats featuring Qur’an verses from sale because the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) found them offensive. In that article, I asked:
How long will it be before Hamas-linked CAIR starts demanding that books that criticize jihad terror and Sharia oppression of women, gays, and others also be dropped by Amazon?
The answer turned out to be 51 days.
It’s the British government and the BBC, rather than CAIR, that are likely behind this, but Amazon has just dropped the book Mohammed’s Koran by the renowned British activist Tommy Robinson and Peter McLoughlin -- and apparently only because its censors dislike Robinson. In the last two weeks, Robinson spectacularly embarrassed the BBC by exposing the bias and dishonesty of its reporter John Sweeney. The retaliation has been swift and severe: Robinson has been banned from YouTube and Facebook, and now his book has been withdrawn from sale.
Coauthor Peter McLoughlin states:
[T]his is the twenty-first century equivalent of the Nazis taking out the books from university libraries and burning them. Can you think of another scholarly book on Islam that has been banned by Amazon? Mein Kampf is for sale on Amazon. As are books like the terrorist manual called The Anarchist Cookbook.
McLoughlin is correct that Amazon’s behavior has been wildly inconsistent. He adds that Amazon officials are steadfastly mum on why the book was banned:

I know a British guy who blogs in French about islam without asking money advertisements, just because it keeps him underground and avoids gaining attention. It is islam from the horse’s mouth and it drives his haters batsht crazy because it is their historical leaders deploying their hate from obscure islamic libraries (obscure to westerners).

“STOP SHOPPING AT AMAZON.”
YES, and there a number of reasons to boycott Amazon.
We CAN do without Amazon (and there are some who think they can’t). (sigh)
So agree...they are ideologues who are the new statist elites
If there’s a dead tree edition Amazon isn’t carrying that, either.
And B&N is not carrying the book in dead tree or ebook.
And ABE Books, which used to be independent (and excellent) was bought by Bezos.
ISBN is 0995584907 if you want to try searching that way.
[I don't think I've ever looked for a book there that isn't there.]

The judge is already threatening to punish him for having his latest book go on sale.
Ban Amazon.
Ban Facebook.
Ban Google.
Let someone whose not beholden to Mr. Soros nor other Devil-serving cronies provide the services.
Robinson’s book is still on sale at Amazon
The question is, does Amazon sell anything anti-Christian or anti-Jewish?
Or Buddhist, Taoist or other religions?
We all need to check and if we find any, bring it immediately to their attention and report back to this site.
Robert Mapplethorpe...please pick up the courtesy phone
Next up, the Satanists. They will get The Bible removed from sale.
Right,Jeff?

If you own the world’s largest book store - banning is easier than burning... Same mentality.
Thank you very much!
Looks like a good one.
The NSA (government ) couldn’t get anything to actually work. This private browser Works great . And it’s better than Marxist google tracking and watching me. google is worse than the NSA.
Just keep using Google and youtube and facebook then and be a slave to marxists.
And gab.ai instead of twitter. Gab has a new comment function to post comments about any url. If you want to sign up for that it’s dissenter.com.
