I think you are wrong. The neuremberg files website didn't *create* a motive for killing. Assassination Politics would. That is a key difference.
You're right AP might not be protected. But suppose the activity is different. Suppose its publically stated purpose is some uncontroversial legit activity, such as psychic prediction contests.

The fact that terrorists unknown to the psychics might use the contests for illegal purpose (maybe specifically prohibited by the contest organizers) should cover the majority participants. ks Free, encrypted, secure Web-based email at www.hushmail.com
