This is an emergency appeal. The incomparably important work of Palestine Media Watch has been attacked by the forces of evil. – Brian of London posting!
If you don’t know them, Palestine Media Watch, PMW, translates and posts videos from the TV Channels of both the official Palestinian Authority (rulled by Fattah) and Hamas TV. They’ve brought to the world such gems as the genocidal bunny rabbit and Farfour the murderous mouse. Well YouTube have shut them down for hate speech when all they are doing is reporting the hate speech of Islam.
To YouTube: hate speech exists whether you allow it on your network or not. Shouting “fire” in a crowded cinema is not protected speech if there is no fire. The world is on fire with hateful speech from Islam and you’re trying to murder one of the few good men in the world shouting FIRE!
The posting of the following video has resulted in YouTube pulling their entire account:
6. “Hamas suicide terrorist farewell video: Palestinians drink the blood of Jews” formerly at
http ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSftYIGH6-w
Removed for violating our Terms of Use on 12/15/2010.
The claim is that our videos, which expose the hate speech propagated by the Palestinian leadership and controlled media, themselves represent hate speech.
YouTube stated that the account was henceforth terminated “due to repeated or severe violations of our Terms of Use”.
Since 2009 they have been deleting specified videos – those mentioned above – but now “terminated” the entire account due to no 6 above.
So for bring to the attention of the world the the vile Jew hatred of Hamas (which is most certainly “hate speech”), PMW is charged with spreading “hate speech”
Obviously, if there are former Presidents of the United States (I’m looking at you Carter) who would talk with Hamas, isn’t it important to know who Hamas are? How can we do that unless we hear what they’re saying to their people!
This is going to get play all over the web, here are other links as they crop up:
