While attempting to google Jewish Recipes to see what else I can make (I already know my matzah brei is stunning, but otherwise I'm rather pathetic).

It's sad that Google would feel that necessary but I can see how that would be a shock to your everyday search... WOW

See while upsetting it would not shock me to stumble across it, antisemitism is alive and well all over the globe. So I would expect to stumble across it while Googling things having to do with Judaism. Would it make me mad hell yeah but not at Google.

I agree. It isn't Google's fault but I appreciate the disclaimer anyway. At least this way we're aware that they are aware of the problem and they don't condone the websites.

Again, I'm not really surprised. But, I guess, I don't google "Jew" either. I imagine it'd be hard if you weren't Jewish though, and were just trying to innocently look something up.

Like Green~Mammy, the anti-Semitism doesn't surprise me. But, it is saddening and really, really pisses me off (but not at google).
