Google Ads. FAIL

Great spot by Martin Belam, aka currybetdotnet. If you’re inclined to visit the forum of the English Defence League (‘Peacefully Protesting Against Militant Islam’), you are likely to be greeted by this advert:

The introductory blurb to the forum is duly reassuring:

The EDL will not tolerate any racist or Islamaphobic behaviour on this forum. We are against Islamic Extremists and all that they stand for, but do not want innocent Muslims being victimised or abused.

So that’s okay then, and presumably that passing reference to “innocent Muslims” was enough for Google to serve an ad for Muslima.com, ‘The International Muslim Matimonial Site!’

I wonder whether any EDL members will be tempted to click through.
