There are exceptions to that particular freedom, and many of those 
exceptions have pretty well-established legal precedents.  The First 
Amendment has been well tested in court.

I would think that a website operating inside the US that is providing a 
communications channel for terrorist groups that have an established 
pattern of wanting to harm the interests of the US and other countries 
would fall into one of those well tested exemptions, particularly after 
9/11.
