The video content site YouTube has flagged a new campaign ad by Republican presidential candidate Tom Tancredo, warning of its content and requiring viewers to verify they are 18 or older.
The 30-second spot airing on Iowa cable stations this week links the country's illegal immigration problem to terrorism, depicting an attack on an American mall.
"There are consequences to open borders beyond the 20 million aliens who have come to take our jobs," the narrator says. "Islamic terrorists now freely roam U.S. soil. Jihadists, who froth with hate, here to do what they have in London, Spain, and Russia."
The ad has a hooded man walking into a crowded mall with a backpack. As a clock ticks in the background, the man leaves the backpack at a bench.
The narrator concludes: "The price we pay for spineless politicians who refuse to defend our borders against those who come to kill. [Explosion] Tancredo ... before it's too late."
YouTube is trying to make sure young viewers don't have access to the ad.
"This video or group may contain content that is inappropriate for some users, as flagged by YouTube's user community," says its warning. "To view this video or group, please verify you are 18 or older by logging in or signing up."
