Here is a full transcript of the video. Where is the “hate speech”? Where is there even any factual inaccuracy?
For the Left, truth is no defense. What they want to do is silence their ideological foes. That’s all. The problem with the increasingly mainstream concept that “hate speech is not free speech” is that what exactly constitutes “hate speech” is a subjective judgment, often based on the political proclivities of the person doing the judging. If a Leftist analyst who subscribes to the fantasy that the Muslim Brotherhood is a “firewall against extremism” is doing the judging, he may think that the information below is “hate speech” — not because it is actually hateful, but because he opposes this message. On the other hand, if someone who is aware of the true nature and magnitude of the jihad threat is the judge, he would more likely consider Hamas-linked CAIR’s “Islamophobia” reports to be genuine “hate speech.”
The concept of “hate speech” is, in reality, a tool of the powerful to silence and demonize their critics. It has no place in a free society. This action by YouTube is ominous in the extreme, and is almost certainly the harbinger of much worse to come.
You can still see the video here, and here is the full transcript: “CENSORED: YouTube Uses Anti-ISIS Policy to Pull CounterJihad Video. Watch it here,” Counter Jihad, July 6, 2016
On Thursday of last week, this site published a video on its YouTube channel. As of yesterday, YouTube has pulled that video declaring it a violation of its “hate speech” policy.
We spoke with Jim Hanson, Executive Vice President of the Center for Security Policy and the official in charge of the video’s production. “I am stunned,” he said, “that the policy that YouTube developed for the express purpose of fighting Islamic State propaganda is now being used to silence critics of radical jihad.” He pointed out that this means that supporters of groups like the Islamic State (ISIS) have managed to turn YouTube’s own policies against it. “Instead of counteracting radical propaganda online,” Hanson said, “these policies are now being used to silence the very speech that YouTube said it wanted — speech that challenges ISIS.”
Hanson appears to be correct that YouTube initially developed its policies with countering ISIS in mind. In an article in the Huffington Post,
The text of the video is posted below.
What is Civilization Jihad? This video explains in three minutes.
We have a new video aimed at non-experts as an introduction to the basic ideas behind the Counterjihad. Please watch it, and share it with those whom you think need to see it. The text of the video is as follows:
Terrorism seems to be everywhere, and it’s getting worse. The bad guys have lots of names—ISIS, al Qaeda, Boko Haram—but they have one thing in common. They are all killing for a cause: Islamic Law known as Sharia.
Sharia is a return to medieval Islam. Sharia demands a Holy War called Jihad. The most widely available book of Islamic Law in English says: “Jihad means to war against non-Muslims.”
There are two kinds of Jihad. Violent Jihad is horribly simple, slaughtering innocents and forcing submission. Violent Jihadists want to conquer land for their Caliphate – essentially an Islamic State where Sharia Law is supreme.
But there is another kind of Jihad. In their Explanatory Memorandum, the Muslim Brotherhood, calls this, “civilization jihad,” saying, “The [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers…”
Civilization Jihad has the same goal as the Violent Jihad—to conquer land for their Caliphate—but instead of waging war or staging terror attacks like their brothers in the violent jihad, these Civilization Jihadists wear suits and ties, and their work is much more subtle.
So what do they do? They file lawsuits for Muslim truck drivers who don’t want to drive beer. They convince schools to hold Muslim Day, where the girls wear head scarves and the kids say Muslim prayers. They complain when our government watches to see if their violent buddies are hanging out with them.
They call anyone critical of Islamic Law an “Islamophobe,” a term they invented to make people scared to speak out—like the neighbors of the terrorists in San Bernardino who knew something was wrong, but didn’t want to say anything because they’d be accused of profiling.
These bad guys have lots of names, too: the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR); the Muslim Student Association (MSA); Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). The Justice Department found that these groups were, in fact, started by the Muslim Brotherhood.
These groups like to say that terrorism has no religion, but only Islam has Sharia and Jihad.
Not all Muslims practice Sharia or support it, but an awful lot do. They believe that anyone who insults Islam can be killed; they believe that women are property; that gays should be killed; and that little girls should be mutilated and forced to marry old men they’ve never men. These things are simply not allowed in our free society and are against the Constitution.
There are plenty of Modern Muslims who want to “live and let live,” but unfortunately the groups that speak most often for the Muslim community follow the medieval version based on Sharia.
They are working to make the US more like the Caliphate. They have to go.
Walter Sieruk says
In the title of the above article the one word of it stands out to me. Its the word “Sharia” The reason for this is that it’s a reminders of the site http://www.bansharialaw.com

Those same ‘ Modern Muslims ‘ probably wrote to Obama to strong-arm YouTube into taking it down.

Google is closely aligned with the US Govt. It’s a revolving door between Google and Obama team.
Look how many times Google execs visit the WhiteHouse. More then anyone else.
Google helps keep the Democrats in power and they make sure to never open a anti-trust case against them.
What the plebs want is not relevant. We are just Muslim cannon fodder.
Mark Swan says
There is no hate speech exception to the First Amendment. Hateful ideas (whatever exactly that might mean) are just as protected under the First Amendment as other ideas. One is as free to condemn Islam — or Muslims, or Jews, or blacks, or whites, or illegal aliens, or native-born citizens — as one is to condemn capitalism or Socialism or Democrats or Republicans.
To be sure, there are some kinds of speech that are unprotected by the First Amendment. But those narrow exceptions have nothing to do with “hate speech” in any conventionally used sense of the term.
It does appear this video has been hand plucked, and by those who have a purpose to keep its statement away from the public view

Grim but true, Jay Boo. There is always room on YouTube for Taqiyya and whitewash.
Don McKellar says
In an America gone insane where the most corrupt candidate in history to run for President, and relentlessly pro-Islamic deception, gets a free pass from the FBI for her lies and top secret email scandal, gets no prosecution for letting embassy staff die in Islamic slaughter, is not held to account for her empowering and building of ISIS, but instead is ferried around on Air Force One for stops on her presidential campaign by Barrack Hussein Obama at the taxpayers expense, while her husband has “secret” meetings with the head of the JD to influence them — this is exactly what to expect from YouTube.

Bill Clinton impeached for lying under oath yet allowed to stay in office.
Hillary lies under oath about her email server yet is strangely allowed to run for the Presidency.

Hello again Don — There is a bright side to the FBI’s top dog letting treasonous Hillary slide, without a referral for indictment.:
House Speaker Paul Ryan and some of his best buddies are planning a party with Jim Comey as the guest of honor, so he can amuse those attending with his argument against proceeding.
BTW, FOR EVERYONE WHO WANTS SUPERB SHREDDING OF THE DECISION:
Go to the National Review + Federalist websites, to read articles by former U.S. Attorney (and Blind Sheikh prosecutor) Andrew McCarthy, and David Harsanyi.
AND, DONALD TRUMP HAS THE GIFT OF TWO EXCELLENT CAMPAIGN ADS — “Extremely Careless” and “Gross Negligence”. Right from the FBI Director’s mouth.
Last but not least, Shrillary will HAVE TO DO AN INTERVIEW ADDRESSING THE FBI REPORT. Yes, she can dodge it for a while, but the longer she waits the worse it gets.
underbed cat says
Was she has collecting information about some decision making that would rise to indictment status as far as allowing sharia into the U.S, releasing prisoners, bringing in enormous migration, suppressing speech information, Iran deal, etc,,,…off site servers for gathering information…maybe.it was for safety..

Dexter L. Wilson says
Excuse me but if the Muslim Brotherhood is being singled out with a Senate Bill 2230 to be labeled a Terrorist Organization by the U S government, why would You Tube try to protect them? Contact your senators and let them know that you support Senate Bill 2230.
Jaladhi says
>”There are plenty of Modern Muslims who want to “live and let live,” but unfortunately the groups that speak most often for the Muslim community follow the medieval version based on Sharia.”<
I beg to differ!! They all have the same aim. Sooner or later they all want sharia and Islamic rule! NO Muslim wants to live here in peace! period.
Michael Copeland says
True. What a muslim may WANT, or SAY that he wants is of no importance.
“The ummah [musiim community] possesses no power except to acknowledge and obey”,
That is a fatwa (ruling) from the Secretary-General of the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America, Dr. Salah al-Sawy, He did not invent it. The ruling is based on Koran 33:36, part of Islamic law:
“It is not fitting for a Believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decided by Allah and His Messenger to have any option about their decision:”
An alleged choice between a “live and let live” version and a “medieval” version is quite simply not available. It is a red herring. One book fits all.

A majority of Muslims in the United States say they want Shari’ah law imposed here.
Jay Boo says
A little off topic
It is all about controlling the narrative.
Muslim kills gays on Latin night.
The MSM goes dark on Islam.
The Mo Bro’s Obama is throwing up a smoke-screen to defeat Trump in North Carolina and distract how his administration tossed Hispanic gays under the bus by doubling-down on the transsexual bathroom issue.
This is all a smokescreen to indirectly blame Republicans for Orlando.

Angemon says
Youtube recently changed its ToS regarding “hate speech” to the point where if you do a video saying anything negative about someone – even if what you’re saying is 100% factual truth – you cang et in trouble for “hate speech”, “harassment” or “cyberbullying”.
gravenimage says
And this will be–of necessity–only selectively enforced. I imagine we can guess from the above story how this will go…
Angemon says
Yeah, I don’t expect any large channel with millions of subscribers to get hit with anything more than a slap on the wrist – after all, if they go they take their subscribers (and their millions of views of ads) with them. But small channels? My guess is that they’re fair game.
Jay Boo says
Obama campaigned to ‘save’ us from the religious intolerance of “Right-Wing” Christians like John Hagee with the backing Christlam pastors like the confused Rick Warren.
Champ says
I love John Hagee. He is right and really tells it like it is–one of the few Christian teaches out there willing to speak the unvarnished truth. Thank you for these videos Jay Boo.
Jay Boo says
Chrislam’s Rick Warren worships Isa.
Obama approves of the submission of this dhimme.
Champ says
If ever there was a false teacher that Jesus warned us about …it’s Rick Warren!
And ‘isa’ is NOT the Jesus of the Bible …
“Jesus vs. Isa (the Jesus of the Koran)”

This website offers a side-by-side outline on the *key* differences between Jesus and isa.
gravenimage says
Yes, Champ–it is not just that “Isa” is not the Savior in Islam. He is also not a healer or a peacemaker. Worst of all, in the last days the role of the Muslim “Jesus” is to *kill Christians*.
Any Christian who considers “Isa” a “bridge” between Christianity and Islam is a suicidal fool.
Luke Andrews says
You can listen to some of Hitler’s speeches on YouTube, and there’s lots of other anti-Semitic material. (Sorry — I don’t know the URL, but just go to YouTube & search for Hitler and you’re home.)

Luke Andrews, You are correct, there are very many provocative and instigating videos, even those
that are actually inciting hate that are not going to be pulled.

A quest for the truth
These days anyone who criticizes Islam is branded an Islamophobe. In fact, all that most of the so called Islamophobes are actually doing is expressing an informed concern that Islam poses a real threat to our free democratic society. The Islamic State has frequently justified its reign of terror by referring to the Koran and Hadiths, and what their leaders say appears to be theologically correct. If Islam were truly a religion of peace then their sacred book would surely make them peace loving, filled with love and inner tranquility. But it doesn’t. Some of the terrorists reportedly know the Koran off by heart so it can’t be verses of peace and love going round in their heads as they murder innocent people. The Koran says what it says about terror and no one can ever change it. There is no point refusing to accept the truth; we have to deal with it for the sake of the future of our free society. We have to focus all conflict into a debate about ideas and ideals and stop it being a physical conflict. The ongoing failure by our governments to do this is causing a groundswell of true Islamophobia that fuels right wing groups who are more than willing to overstep the boundary of peaceful protest. That helps no-one.
Peace, love and respect
It is clear that the Koran incites terrorism; terrorists read it before going out on mission. While people believe in Islam and propagate it, and the Koran is read, terror will continue. Misfits with aggressive tendencies are easily drawn to Islam, which through Jihad, offers them a religious justification and focus for their violence. Because it’s all done in the name of Islam & Allah, in obedience with the Koran, all other moral considerations go out the window. If we don’t speak up now and point out what is theologically and factually wrong with their religion, more and more young Muslims will fall into the snare of radicalisation. Many Muslims have been indoctrinated with Islamic beliefs that cause them to despise our Western values; (4:144) “Take not for friends, non-Muslims”, (9:107) “they are indeed all liars”, (28:86) “never be a helper to the disbelievers”, (76:24) “obey not…any…non-Muslim” (Even the police, or the authorities, or any non-Sharia law!) Islam hates the West, our free lifestyle and values, it very actively teaches that hatred to millions of Muslims.
Can a tolerant society overcome intolerance?
The Koran teaches Muslims that they will be successful and that non-believers are losers. The statement (47:32) “those who disbelieve…the way of Allah…He will make their actions fruitless”, can be pragmatically scrutinised and proved false. There is not a single Islamic nation in the world’s ten most prosperous by overall GDP. Indonesia is the first Islamic nation coming in 16th just ahead of the rather unreligious Netherlands who have a similar GDP but a population nineteen times smaller. And it is not because Muslims are not hard working, it is because Islamic culture and Sharia law hinder economic growth. Are there not thousands of Muslims begging, risking their lives to get to Europe, the USA and Australia to find work? Many non-Muslim countries are more prosperous than Islamic nations, this is an undeniable fact. We have to show Muslims the Koran is wrong. As soon as Muslims understand that the Koran is not perfect and infallible, they will start to doubt that it is the word of God, and then their confidence in carrying out jihad will fall rapidly. It really is as simple as that.
Human Rights and human wrongs
Islam was invented in the Dark Ages by a man raised in pagan Spiritism, initiated as a medium to talk with demons, who became a religious warlord. During his life he killed thousands, beheading hundreds of Jews in a single day, he had sex slaves and a child bride, he even burned people alive in their homes for not attending his religion’s prayers. After his death, the religion was propagated by war taking over a large part of the earth, its advance was only stopped by the greater power of the Europeans, in Africa and Asia as well in Europe. As Islamic culture never underwent anything like the Reformation or the Enlightenment, its holy book, the Koran, was never subject to the kind of logical scrutiny that the Jewish Torah and Christian Bible have been put through. It is only now in our day that critical attention is uncovering its violent, xenophobic and misogynist prescriptions. In fact, its content does not even stand the test of truth, it contains grave errors of scientific, historical and literary fact, gross failures of logic and much self-contradiction. A book that claims itself to be perfect and infallible, but is so full of flaws, lies even, it cannot possibly be the dictated word of an all wise God. Its Allah wants followers to destroy, kill and plunder all who disagree with it, its Prophet promises each of them a personal demon; this is not faith as we recognize it. Today, Islam and its holy book fail the test of reason which it should have been subjected to centuries past, and as a result can only fall. It is only a matter of how long, it is up to us in the West to decide whether it will be a slow torturous demise, full of barbarity from Islamist groups like ISIS and Boko Haram, or whether it will be a sudden information technology driven worldwide social transformation.
Islam undone
Even Mohammed foresaw the end of Islam, he said; “Verily Islam started as something rare and it would again revert to being rare and would recede… as a serpent crawls back into its hole “, “my people…they will swerve from the religion…. the book of Allah…they will have nothing to do with.”

eduardo odraude says
Is it that Youtube is on the left? Or simply cowards? Some of both, no doubt, but which is predominant?
pdxnag says
To ban hate they would have to ban Islam and the practice of Islam.
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
Doesn’t YouTube have any competition? Even apart from non-political, non-religious content, the commercials you have to sit through before viewing any content are getting progressively longer. It would be nice if there were another source of videos that is not as commercial-laden and morally Nurse Ratched-y.
gravenimage says
There are other platforms for on-line videos like Vimeo–but YouTube is by far the largest. It is not just the biggest for videos–it is also bigger than Bing, Yahoo!, Ask, and AOL combined for searches.
So if something in censored on YouTube it is unfortunately definitely a big deal.
R Cole says
Even those who try to reform Islam from within are called ‘Islamophobes’!!
Whoever is against the sharia being implemented – is accused of engaging in ‘hate speech’!!
Such things do not happen without support.
It’s the issuing in of a new order and rights are being challenged according to this world view [a lot of good it did the Islamic world they are all coming here – it’s a mirage.]
And for this the majority on the Left [indeed public] must remain as the empty barrel.

Getting particularly nasty now?
Must be some perceived threat.
Perhaps it’s something to do with the election – and the rise of the popular sentiment.
Obama must really feel threatened ~ picking on youtube videos again – remember Benghazi!!

My Suspicions
Got a feeling that what they want to do is to reward the so called ‘peaceful Muslims’ – let’s be clear the Muslim Brotherhood-types with sharia law – the very same law the terrorist-types are fighting for. It’s the linking of the two. The message they wish to spread is that the violent ones the ISIS-types [and there are a lot of them] have nothing to do with the peaceful Islam. And further for not engaging in the violent struggle for Islam or jihad – they are preparing to offer the peaceful Muslims the exact same law. But obviously – it’s a secret.

Yes–this is what Hugh Fitzgerald refers to as the “Fast Jihadists” and the “Slow Jihadists”. Ultimately they have just the same goals–the only difference is in tactics.
David says
This is a war with Islam and the west has yet to recognize it as such, much to our detriment. That YouTube has made a decision to ban publication of articles which are negative to Islam, sharia and jihad is truly disgraceful and must be challenged. We must all demand a full explanation from You Tube at the time a ban is instituted, which ban must be factual or rescinded at once. It may take legislation to get this done or maybe only public pressure ! Let’s all begin pushing now.
David says
We must rise up against You Tube to convince them that their new policy regarding blocking comments on Islam that they dislike for their own reasons, must end now ! We demand freedom to comment.
Paul says
They can ban stuff like this as much as they like, it certainly won’t
stop good old reliable devout followers of the Religion of Peace
from showing them up for the idiotic cowardly corrupt and perfectly
dhimmified pieces of useless crap that they are. Morons!

YouTube bans video on Muslim Brotherhood, Sharia and Civilization Jihad as “hate speech”
……………………….
Yes–because it is “hateful” to say anything negative about the Muslim thugs who want to conquer us, and the hideously savage ‘law’ they intend to impose on us. Surely, saying anything critical about a system that amputates the limbs of petty thieves, sacralizes child marriage, and stones rape victims to death must be “hate”…sarc/off
billybob says
I think there must be some kind of mistake. Just look at the abundance of material critical of Islam on YouTube – all of it, practically. Maybe that film got rejected by some new software algorithm that still has kinks in it. I certainly hope so. One of my greatest fears is that we will someday lose our platforms, virtual soapboxes and speaker’s corners. If that day ever arises, we are finished.
btw: There was an interesting article just published by WaPo by a Muslim celebrating Eid. What was wonderful about it was not actually the pathetic article but rather the comment section where WaPo has provided a platform for free speech. Read the comments and add your own! I have the greatest respect for WaPo providing this platform free to anybody. Some may complain about a leftist bent in their articles, but it really doesn’t matter – that’s the beauty of it! We can all comment and have our say on the side of yea or nay and that is what is important in the end – that conversation.
On Eid, here’s how Ramadan changed my despair about the world into hope

billybob, my understanding is that YouTube has just enhanced their “hate speech” strictures. I hope this does not lead to a great purging of Anti-Jihad material on that platform.
