Muslims on YouTube organizing to censor videos that criticize Islam

Muslims on YouTube have formed several groups where users and videos that criticize Islam (which they define as "Hate Speech") are listed and mass-flagged as abuse. YouTube seems to remove videos and sometimes even ban users automatically. Muslims claim that they only flag videos that have violated YouTube's TOS, but this has been been proven false

The United Muslims Youtube group (intentionally left cold):

Mark the above group as inappropriate:

I think I might just make a video of all my friends saying ~~'Muslims are edit~~!' and post it on youtube.

Just to see what happens.

You can go to their organization's YouTube website and "Flag Them as Inapproriate".

Well.... it seems like the logical thing to do would be to form an ARFcom group that flags offensive videos.

Links right on off the link at the top of the page. Once you're on their page click the our videos or whatever it says.

How many flags does it take to eliminate a vid on there?

I think the so called "religion" of Islam is a sufficient mockery in and of itself.

A bunch of arabs can get together and stop some videos on the internet, but it will never change the fact that they practice a sham of a religion.

I went through and flagged "Why I love Islam", "Chavez message to Bush" and their "Moral victory of Hizbollah" videos as hate speech.

Posted: 2/24/2007 4:09:21 PM EDT

[#25]

I'm going to find as many of their fucking videos and flag them motherfuckers.

ETA: I'm flagging them all as hate speech

Take a look, there are quite a few that can be flagged. If every member flagged 20 videos that would give YouTube a HUGE headache. They're supposed
to respond to every flag within 24 hours. I've got their "flag" for them...

Can the Islam-o-fascists who get flagged as inappropriate see the screen name of the person who dinged them?

I just flagged about about fifty as hate speech. They, in fact were hate speech if there is such a thing. I think death to Isreal counts.

There's actually a video in that collection where a muslim scholar (or at least an old guy with a beard and eyeglasses) states that the koran requires muslims to feed prisoners the same food, serve the same drinks, never torture, never attack civilian targets indiscriminately, mind the environment, etc... Obviously muslim terrorists must've been absent during that sermon because of all the forced conversions, beheadings, targeting civilian infastructure, and chemical agents in IED's. I marked it as "Worth Watching" because I got the feeling that it was a veiled criticism of the GWOT.

I've gone through pages 1-4 of the united muslims list of videos and flagged them all. That's about 80 videos. There's 10 pages to their list. I'll hit the others tomorrow.
