    One of the results on page 1 referred to the issue:

    The factors that Google uses to rank pages have long been a target for financial ends (i.e., Google-spam). But parallel to that, and less deeply examined than it should be, is the potential targeting for political ends. From this perspective, Google-bombing is a crude process, done for laughs, of what might, in the future, become much more serious political dirty-tricks.

    I never thought about that alternative use for google-bombing. Scary stuff.

    google does hand edits all the time - why not this time? I think google hates jews but doesnt want to come out and say it.

    that jewwatch site - if you read the authors page, he admits he is a racist but not one - his bible is the racists bible which if you read it sounds similar to the koran or book of mormon. Pretty insane that the hate these people have.

    Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin are both Jewish, and appear on an online list of most famous Jews.

    Google anti-jewish?
    I don't think so.
    Both Larry and Sergei appear to be remarkably tolerant.

    this is an old issue that used to be around. For a while when you searched for that term the #1 result was potentially offensive. Since google holds a promise that they wont hand-alter search results, putting that explaination up was the best solution.

    There are other situations like this but i think this one in particular has been "google Bowled" out by contributors to Wikipedia.
