YouTube Refuses To Remove Terrorist Videos
hhavensteincw writes "YouTube has declined a request from Sen. Joe Lieberman remove videos from terrorist organizations. Lieberman said that the videos made by groups like Al-Qaeda show assassinations, attacks on US soldiers leading to injuries and death, and weapons training, 'incendiary' speeches, and other material intended to 'encourage violence against the West.' YouTube said that while it removed some of the videos highlighted by the Senator, most were allowed to stay because they did not violate YouTube's community guidelines. YouTube went on to note that they are strong supporters of free speech."
Lets let Al-Qaeda have equal time on PBS! We sure don't want to hinder their free speech even if all they want to do is kill us.
You people amaze me sometimes. Liberal knee jerk idiots!
In 20 more years, you will be a minority in your own country. Most of your elected officials will have been replaced by Muslims. All of your liberties and socially-liberal policies will be reverted and you will find yourself living under a very real Sharia.
Cheers! (:
THL phish sticks
1) someone who watches porn regular porn would jump at the opportunity to have sex with a real, live woman.
2) someone who enjoys rape porn is more inclined towards rape than someone who doesn't (but may or may not jump at the chance to engage in said behavior).
Last time I checked, people who are not citizens of these great United States of America are not entitled to protections offered under the bill of rights. I guess the argument would be then that Google has a right to distribute them because they are in the US. But they don't even 'look' at the videos before they distribute them. It's like a phone call more than a TV show. There is no FCC, there is no accountability on the part of the poster, so a bad dude can 'call' and remain totally anonymous. If they are slick at all they will have posted the video as they drove by a wi-fi or hijacked a zombie machine in a different country yada yada they are totally anonymous! So, no, they (the jihadists) are not entitled to "freedom of speech". All the people who wish our country destroyed are entitled to is a MIRV. And all these people who claim they love America and want to save our freedoms by protecting the rights of people who don't even live here can go hang out with the people whom they so dearly care about and see how much their love is reciprocated.
It's official copyright violation is worse than terrorism, a bootleg of Britney Spears will get taken down and the account holder banned, but Osama Bin Laden is OK with them!
Just because it CAN be done, doesn't mean it should!
"You know...once this whole world-struggle "
But that won't be the end of your life, won't it? More important is where you would be and what you would be in the end of the road. You attacked foreign land for money, for your college degree or for your citizenship.
That is a great crime against Muslims. The only way you could deserve forgiveness of Muslims (and by Muslims I mean real Muslims, not apostates and hypocrites you probably dealt with in Iraq) is to become Muslim.
I do not believe in karma. "Funny"=-6. Do good and forbid evil. Yours, Oft-Offtopic Flamebaiting Troll.
We provide Japan's defense because they have proven themselves untrustworthy with offensive military force. That is different from arming Israel, then giving them billions in foreign aid, then invading Iraq because of "ties to terrorism," which amount to giving money to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers... that sounds like Israel's problem, not America's.
anyway....
I would like to get back to the heart of what I was intending to argue from my first post. That is Judaism and National Socialism are, as codified manifestations of the folk-zeitgeist of their respective audiences, equivalent. They serve the same goal of cohesion and definition of folk, craft the laws for interaction with those outside of the tribe, and provide the framework and rationale from which to approach the world.
They are inherently exclusive, based on traditional national identity, espouse loyalty to one's own kind, and ultimately find political expression and manifestation. National Socialism required the NSDAP and the Reich, just as Judaism required the Zionists.
Looking at Old Testiment literature, anyone will see that Judaism was just as "barbaric," cut throat and blood thirsty as the ancient Norse. First, they get God's hitman to off all of the Egyptian kids, then they go and slaughter the Cananites and Philistines and jack their land. They say it's OK because God told them they're better than everyone else and that they can have the land.
Modern, political National Socialism of the 20th Century required the use of Norse mythology to fuel its political ideology. Zionism requires Judaism as its rationale, and the two are inextricably linked.
In fact, with the founding of a Zionist state, the requirement for philosophical National Socialism in the vein of Martin Heidegger are met, because the Jew can now enjoy a (semi) autochythonic relationship with his "homeland." He is therefore no longer the eternal wanderer, no longer das ewig jude -- the Jew regains the full identity as a national and political unit.
My argument, as you see, has precious little to actually do with any alleged atrocities. They are irrelevant to my comparison.
However, fair being fair, either Germany needed Poland as a buffer against the Soviets, or Israel doesn't really need Gaza or the West Bank.

P.S. -- I'm not defending Germany, I'm just sayin' is all.
What, 10,000 dead, of which 2,000 were Serb civilians? That's not genocide - that's war. Neither side was clean, that's for sure, but to blame the Serbs for the conflict is just ignorant.
May as well blame the US for the war in Afghanistan, and call THAT genocide!
Oh
Where do you think the Ottoman empire got Kosovo from? I'll give you three guesses, but I guarantee you'll only need one.
Anyway, your views on history are...."interesting". It's like you got all your information from reading PRAVDA, the KKK's monthly newsletter, and your framed copy of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. I find it rather amusing that you speak with such self-certainty, when it's quite clear that you've never studied history from any credible sources.
