Anti Scientology sites adsense account suspended

This could be a totally innocent business decision or something else, but what the reasons behind the decision to cut the Google Adsense account of a web site which is dedicated to being one of the most influential sites against the Church of Scientology.

It has to be hard for all parties involved, on all sides in this case and others of a similar nature, but at some point there has to be something done and the decision is going to be right for some people and wrong in the eyes of others.

The reason for the suspension seems to be that the adverts appearing on the anti scientology site were actually ads advertising the Church of Scientology, which of course has to be some sort of conflict of interest there somewhere along the line.
