Google's TerrorTube

Cyberterrorism: Asked to remove terrorist groups' videos from YouTube, Google insists on keeping "nonviolent" terrorist content — whatever that is. It has become a useful idiot for Islamofascism.

Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Chairman Joe Lieberman, the independent Democrat from Connecticut, contends that Google's YouTube is being used by terrorist groups. In a letter to Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Lieberman wrote, "Islamist terrorist organizations use YouTube to disseminate their propaganda, enlist followers, and provide weapons training."

The senator added that such online content "can play a significant role in the process of radicalization, the end point of which is the planning and execution of a terrorist attack."

Googleremoved about 80 postings but kept "legal nonviolent or nonhate speech videos." But, according to Lieberman, "Google continues to allow the posting of videos by organizations the State Department has designated as Foreign Terrorist Organizations."

Among the videos remaining on YouTube is a slick piece of pro-terrorist propaganda called "Dirty Kuffar" ("Kuffar" being Arabic for "nonbelievers"). In it, British Islamist rappers Sheikh Terra and the Soul Salah Crew, their faces covered in black masks while wearing military camouflage and waving guns, a sword and a Koran, sing:

"Peace to Hamas and the Hezbollah, OBL pulled me like a shiny star, Like the way we destroyed them two towers, ha ha!"

Google says it can't help America fight the global war on terror because that would be censorship — yet hypocritically it has no qualms in doing the bidding of the government of Communist China in its censorship policies.

How sad that Google needs reminding that this country is at war with forces that would shut all its operations down in the time it takes to, well, do a Google search.

Perhaps Google, and its executives, should be considered as aiding and abetting terrorists and be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law - including hanging for treason.

I say leave them up so I can hear and see for myself the enemy. Let me test and critique the media and everyone else. Know your enemy, rule number 1.

I think that’s a great idea. Particularly in the face of repeated warnings that they are providing services to terrorists, contrary to Executive Orders.

That’s pretty blatant.

If it were useful information to learn the enemy and his wiles, I’d agree Mom. But it ain’t — it’s only enemy propaganda.

Nobody ever got any the wiser by listening to enemy propaganda: it benefits only one party — the Enemy. It is IMO a much better idea to deprive the Enemy of this valuable resource.
