(Reuters) - A Brazilian court on Tuesday banned an online anti-Islam movie that spawned violent protests across the Muslim world and gave YouTube 10 days to pull the film's trailer from its website.

The decision by a state court in Sao Paulo, home to a large Middle Eastern immigrant community, came hours after Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff criticized "Islamophobia" in Western countries in a speech at the United Nations.

The lawsuit against the controversial film was brought by a Brazilian Muslim group, the National Islamic Union, against YouTube owner Google Inc for posting on the Internet a film it said was offensive and a violation of the constitutional right to freedom of religion.

If Brazil can ban the film from YouTube, I want to ban Shira Law and the Muslims from the U.S. Fair trade?

I am nearing a retirement age and I am getting a feeling my destiny awaits me as a leader of an underground Crusader against Islam.

i fight Islam regardless of laws or boundaries.

This is such nonsense. That stupid trailer is all over the web — downloaded from youtube. Are they going to block every site that has it? Suggest the Brazilians establish a firewall to protect their sensitivities.

Dilma is a communist. Everyone with half a brain knows this. If Brasil wants to follow her off a cliff like the left follow obama the best I can do is get out of the way.
