'Innocence of Muslims': Administration asks YouTube to review video

Administration officials have asked YouTube to review a controversial video that many blame for spurring a wave of anti-American violence in the Middle East.

The administration flagged the 14-minute "Innocence of Muslims" video and asked that YouTube evaluate it to determine whether it violates the site's terms of service, officials said Thursday. The video, which has been viewed by nearly 1.7 million users, depicts Muhammad as a child molester, womanizer and murderer -- and has been decried as blasphemous and Islamophobic.

YouTube declined comment on the administration request.

Earlier in the week, YouTube said it found that the video was "clearly within" its guidelines, which bar sexually explicit content, gratuitous violence, hate speech and what it termed "bad stuff" such as animal abuse, under-age drinking and bomb-making.

” you are against freedom “

OK REALLY?!? Did you even READ my post? NO WHERE did I call for them to remove it. READ MY PREVIOUS POST. From all I have read, they have banned BETTER quality stuff FASTER. WHY IS THIS ONE OK? There is a reason. THATS the question I am asking. (For example; I think the govt is by it’s lack of doing ANYTHING about ANY of the stuff going on in the world right now, embassies being attacked, protested against, etc, it SEEMS to ME like our govt WANTS us in a war and...IN A HURRY!)

I even asked for a freaking link. OBVIOUSLY you have seen it, could you post it here, so we people who are “ against freedom “ can see too?

>>...depicts Muhammad as a child molester

He was a child molester. He married a six year old and I believe consumated that marriage when she was 9.

...womanizer

Women are dogs to muzzies.

... and murderer

Yes... very true. Murder is their calling card.

-- and has been decried as blasphemous and Islamophobic.

Blasphemy towards Satan and his minions is a good thing. And who isn't afraid of a rabid dog? I certainly am. Which means that it's not a phobia since it's a perfectly rational fear.

I know for a fact that DHS has ordered plenty of you-tube videos be taken down. In the reason for the take down you-tube names the complaintant (often a government agency) and reason as not being in compliance with you-tube community standards.

So this is all bs play acting on Obammy’s part.

I've noticed that arguing with idiots around here seldom accomplishes anything. So no, I'm not planning on responding to rurgan.
