On June 15, YouTube blocked Atajurt, claiming the channel had violated its guidelines. Twelve of Atajurt’s videos had been reported for breaching the platform’s “cyberbullying and harassment” policy.
Between April and June, YouTube had blocked the videos and Atajurt had appealed the censorship. The platform had reinstated some of the videos, but it did not provide an explanation as to why others of them remained out of the public view.
YouTube removed the channel, but the platform restored it after Reuters asked for comment about the removal. YouTube said that Atajurt had received several “strikes” for videos containing people holding up ID cards to prove that they were related to missing persons, violating a YouTube policy that prohibits personally-identifiable information in its videos. The platform reinstated Atajurt on June 18, asking the human rights group to blur the IDs.
But vile, nakedly Anti-Semitic content that refers to Israelis as: “AshkeNAZI Khazar Fake “Jew” Occupiers of Palestine”, and referring to Israel as an: “Illegal, Illegitimate, Genocidal Apartheid Pseudo-State” are perfectly A-OK and totally Kosher on YouTube. (added bonus points for the idea of ‘pushing the Jews into the sea’).
Roger that!
Yeah, the problem with genocides is that invariably, they ‘Never Happened’...
