The IEEE has also had papers removed from conferences by the DoD.  In these
cases it was because some or all of the funding for the research was from
the DoD, and the authors of the papers hadnot gone through the proper channels
to get there paper cleared.  I believe that this is also the case in the 
other examples.

If anybody has heard of the DoD supressing a research paper when the author
received no funding from the DoD please post this story to the net.
