JihadTube

So, looking into my previous post, I checked out some of the video he linked to. Well, not surprisingly, it included propaganda. Like this one, where a US tank is hit by an IED. The second and third are caps of the comments that followed:

Then we had a video entitled “The Victorious Muhjahideen”:

Those are just two examples. The sheer amount of supportive comments following videos like those above, is disturbing to say the least. These commenters are literally supportive of terrorist activities, and support terrorist groups. They’re actively posting terrorist propaganda videos, while commenters cheer them on with supportive comments.

YouTube didn’t find a problem with taking Michelle Malkin’s videos offline, because they weren’t politically correct. These are videos celebrating terrorism and the deaths of our troops. Those are acceptable to YouTube?

Update: So it turns out that the poster of the first video isn’t exactly new to posting enemy propaganda. He has everything from bin Laden speeches to enraged sheiks. And he has friends. It’s no exaggeration to say that YouTube is literally infested with supporters of jihad and enemy propaganda.

Here’s another user who declares “May allah bless all of the mojahen around the world and everywhere and may allah be with them and make the amin strong allahm amin”. He’s based in Baghdad. His videos consist of amateur video of insurgents firing rockets, spewing propaganda, and killing troops.

Pointing out all of the terrorist-supporting videos on YouTube, would be a full-time job. Yet my question in all of this, is why YouTube doesn’t find this inappropriate. Politically incorrect videos? Gotta go. Propaganda videos by supporters of Islamic extremist groups currently killing our troops? All over the site.
