Just so there is no mistake, this action is a direct result of the fact that we lampooned media coverage of the Lebanon-Israeli conflict with our videos "All Your Fakes" and "Rocket Ride."
"Rocket Ride" is now gone from YouTube. I'll upload it somewhere else and post the link later. "All Your Fakes" is still up. If you missed it the first time, you may want to watch it while you still can:

Actually, i'm guessing there is big oil money behind this, but it originates in the hell hole known as the "middle East".
Is there way to get a list of YouTube investors?

Jesus not Rocket Ride. My goodness they must not have like my linking all those jihadi videos they have at paduanjawa.blogspot.com. That is why they are taking it out on you.

There is nothing particularly special about YouTube that any competent web developer with gobs of server space can't create.
The owner's craven disregard for their own TOCs (witness: the jihadi murder videos) uncovered earlier this year proves that they don't deserve our custom.
This has to end now.

he wrote them and was given the usual pc anti-American lies while they let all the agit-prop from our enemies sail right thru.

Plug YouTube video links into this page. It'll return a URL that you can download. To play the files under Windows, you'll need either MPlayer or ffdshow and the FLV Splitter (these two will let you play FLV files in Windows Media Player).

This is just another front in the PR war. If they can flag conservative videos as racially insensitive, then we can do the same. I say we start flagging every pro- Hezbollah, Hamas, and even CAIR video as "racially or ethically insensitive."

Muslims routinely manipulate the weaknesses of the internet, particularly ones that run on social networking.

for anyone who wants to really break youtube, begin finding the reams of tv episodes on youtube and begin reporting them to the MPAA

has two solutions. One is to go to videodl to download it, or you can get a GreaseMonkey script to do it. this is a free FLV player that will play them

To make matters worse, Bedier is now featuring a video on his YouTube page by user "ummahfilms" of www.ummahfilms.com. This double shot of slick, well funded propaganda (and outright lies) is taking over YT through the tags, pushing out all other videos on the related videos lists, due to the sheer number of Bedier's. But we do win some sometimes. Some of mine pop up as "related videos" to some of Bediers, so if I drop off the planet, will you guys make sure that the right people are investigated? LOL!!
Seriously check it out. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=bedier
And how dare they take down Rocket Ride! I might do a new video just to rant about that! What was objectionable again? Oh yeah, it's YT. Look in their terms and guess, because they'll never respond.

Y'know, the 'flag as innapropriate' button is there for anyone to click on.
There isn't anything I can see that prevents us from flagging the CAIR videos as 'inappropriate'.

This is not just the video services. Yahoo is just as bad. There "Yahoo Answers" is suspending and deleting accounts all over the place if your on the anti-jihad side of current events.
Jihadists patrol these places and target you and then report your acct. knowing that YouTube,Answers and other like sites have no way to investagate every complaint and so its is left to computer generated bannings.
The Jihadists or their fans are stalking.
Posted by: Bubbi at October 05, 2006 08:39 AM (sj6On)
Yes, there are alternatives to YouTube. YT is just one of the most popular at the moment, and I see no reason for it to become a forbidden zone for anti-jihadists. I know it seems whiny, but when they "reject" one of your videos, it really makes your blood boil!
The CAIR videos skirt the rules very carefully. It's not against YouTube rules to lie about what is or isn't in the Quran, and most of them are from news shows in which the hosts are usually disagreeing or questioning the CAIR reps. But not with user "ummahfilms", who is being promoted by CAIR's Bedier. Check him out.

Right Howie! And what do you do when you don't get your way? I know! Ban! Ban! Delete! Delete! Modify! Edit! I'll bet Michelle has bigger balls than you!

If we all do that, Youtube isn't going to have very much fun trying to tell us how to think. They'll change their ways.
Posted by: DJ at October 05, 2006 01:52 PM (24SEk)
It's titled:
Proving that the Bible is repulsive
I'm betting it wouldn't be up there long if it was about proving the Koran wrong.

If you want to go and flag it.

Meanwhile yes, lets tag anything we find offensive to us at YouTube. I am against censorship BUT I am not against retaliation.
Their TOS allows them literally to be as biased about what the censor, as they like, and the actual wording does not require any semblance of fairness on YouTubes part.
I see no reason not to let our own bias play with the same toys. It is after all a free country...
USA all the way!

google video also has far less downtime than youtube
and google video is far less likely to begin integrating metacafe style video lists into your embedded video
google video however does not allow any copyright violations and thus any videos that feature news broadcasts or footage will not be put up

From reading these posts, you'd think YouTube was a government agency that's suppressing your right to free speech. The internet presents virtually limitless opportunity for anyone with a bit of knowhow and some resources to buid an e-soapbox to stand on and shout to the world, and if it's well done and/or has a good hook then people will look at it.
Of course, it's MUCH more fun (and a lot less work) to bitch, moan, and complain about a successful site that has editorial policies you disagree with.
Did anyone ever consider that the deletion of anti-Koran content might be as much out of fear of reprisal rather than lefty leanings? A lot of you right wingers are, in fact, quite scary in myriad ways, but not nearly as scary at a visceral level as a twenty-something middle eastern male with a vest choc full o' plastique...
Let's see how long THIS post lasts HERE...
(BTW, I voted for Reagan - twice.)

Yeah, his once a week ten-minute commentaries are really offensive compared to the 24/7 Ministry of Propaganda that is Fox Faux News.
But, let's jettison him anyway, whadda ya say!
After all, Supreme War Lord Bush tells us the terrorists hate us for our freedoms, which must be why he and his army of lemming-like sycophants work so hard at suppressing those freedoms.
Torture? Bring it on! Suspension of habeas corpus? Why not! Sieg heil? Hell yes!
You guys are pathetic.

Freedom of speech... but only if it agrees with rightwing policies.
Freedome of commerce... but only if it doesn't offend rightwing sensibilities.
