LONDON — Anyone with an Internet connection can watch videos of bombings and sniper attacks against U.S. forces — shot and edited by Islamic militants and broadcast on YouTube, the world's largest video-sharing Web site.
With the global spread of high-speed Internet connections and the relative anonymity afforded by the world's biggest and busiest sites, extremists have found a new theater to display violence and anti-American propaganda.
"They can always bring down a video, but it's very easy to create a new one. It's like an uphill treadmill for YouTube," said Sajjan Gohel, director of international security at the London-based Asia-Pacific Foundation, a counterterrorism think tank.
"YouTube has clear terms and conditions which prohibit, amongst other things, hateful content," the company said in a statement. "Our community has been highly effective in policing the site, and YouTube removes videos if our community flags them as inappropriate."
But like other video-sharing sites, YouTube generally takes down video only after receiving a complaint. Someone else can easily repost the video under a different account, and it would remain available until YouTube receives a complaint on that as well.
There doesn't seem to be any issue getting any anti-terrorist vid's removed and banned, as Ragnar Danneskjold points out over at The Jawa Report. And, quite frankly, liberals around the world prefer the terrorist video's over those that are against the terrorists. You could see that in the comments that are left. When my video was removed, I had seen plenty of pro-terrorist/anti-US comments on it.
Michelle Malkin has has more on this issue, with another person not only having their video's removed, but his account deleted.
