The Jew Watch site sparked controversy when it turned up as a highly-ranked site in Google’s search results for the word “Jew,” setting off requests that the search firm remove the listing, and prompting Google to explain its hands-off method of indexing the Web.

Google says it is not responsible for the controversial Jew Watch site being removed from its search tools, blaming it on changes in Web hosting policies and timing.

Neo-Nazi site Stormfront, which supported Jew Watch, had its hosting account cancelled by EV1, which brought both sites offline for a short time. Jew Watch later resurfaced with another provider. But during its downtime, Google conducted a random crawl to check that Web addresses are valid, and as a result the downed site was removed.

However, Jew Watch could be picked up again by Google after its next crawl.
