YouTube Censoring Videos Critical of Islam, Leaves Anti-Christian Material Alone

MrNiceGuy, I'm going to ask you this question because I trust you to stick to the issue and not get personal or snarky. I'm just wondering, why is everyone so quick to defend a violent culture? Islam is violent, they teach their children to kill their enemies, and they have been violent against almost every other culture in the world. Why is everyone defending them?

First I can't believe it is worth $1.6 billion. Secondly who are the people controlling whether to delete a particular video or not. It has to be people who are afraid that not deleting would either affect their bank account or their political connections. I dont go into YouTube and from what I have read it is getting a pretty bad reputation.

Good question Mr.NiceGuy! Western Society has had hundreds of year to evaluate Christianity. Islam is relatively new to the U.S. And, many people do not know what it's doctrines are all about. We should not succumb to P.C. standards that prevent people from seeing all views of Islam, including the extremist views that vex approx. 10% of Islam's population. After all, that equates to approximately 2,000,000 people who fall into the extremist category. That's 2 million people, around the globe, who believe they should be killing infidels! That should be cause for alarm to any peace loving person. Fair analysis is critical to people formulating their opinions about Sharia Law vs. Constitutional Law, and whether or not they can coexist peacefully. I have to wonder if: Since the big Islam expansion following the oil embargo of the 1970s, if the Islam that is being imported into the U.S. isn't of a 'watered down' variety. We hear so many people here in the states emphatically tout the peacful nature of Islam. And, I believe that they believe it to be true. Yet, every major global political upheaval today involves Islamist Extremists. How can a religion that teaches peace include, among its flock, so many who believe their religion instructs them to terrorize those who do not subscribe to their religions doctrine? I'm not bashing Islam here Mylotters!!! I really believe that this is a valid question. If 10% of Christians today were willing to strap on a bomb, or kill someone who drew a comic making fun of Christ, I'd be asking the same question! What is it about Islam that C.A.I.R.E. and other oranizations don't want the American people to know? And, more importantly, what is it in Islam that makes so many Muslim's believe it acceptable to kill and mame in the name of religion? Any god who rewards the fold for reaking havoc is no god that I can respect. I believe that somewhere down the line, somebody got something terribly wrong in their interpretation of the 'The Divine Plan'. I'd really love to hear the Muslim perspective on this. If you read any of my other posts, you will find that I am neither a religious fanatic, nor am I closed-minded. I would genuinely like to hear how peaceful Muslim's reconcile this. Thanks in advance!

You're omitting a major point of the Times article: that YouTube allows anyone to make a complaint about any video, and that YouTube will investigate and remove any that it sees as offensive or in violation of TOS. Are you saying that no "anti-Christian" videos have been removed? According to the article, one of the videos by Malkin, a right-wing activist, implied that "images of Lebanese citizens suffering the recent Israeli bombings were staged, violated the company’s terms of service."

It doesn't effect me but no it isn't fair. If you feel offended by it though you should complain to youtube mate

Yeah it is sickening, reminds me of CNN and the ACLU in alot of ways.

any form of discrimination is unacceptable..all parties have to be respected..from whatever faith..only ugly extremist views should bel left out..thankyou for posting this here as all kinds of racism or any ugly isms should be brought to our attention..
