But it still gives free reign to remove links to attack sites that are
used in discussing an attack sites policy. It also allows the situation where
a user is accused of posting on an attack site and is not allowed to give
links to show that what he posted was innocuous.

I don't see how that's in any way responsive to what I said. Are you trying
to tell me that someone defending himself by saying "this is an innocuous
link", or someone arguing on an attack site policy discussion page, is
republishing personal attacks?

If the link is to a personal attack, it should not be republished. Depends on what's
