Umm, that’s a bit of a stretch. I’d expect this from the DUmmies, but I would think that FReepers would know better.
The trailer was uploaded to YouTube by someone going by the name of Sam Bacile, which is apparently a derivation of the many aliases used by the guy that actually produced the film.
It was mostly unnoticed until someone redubbed the audio in Arabic and uploaded the new version. It went viral in the Middle East, even being shown on television. Frankly, I think it was a manufactured crisis to create a pretext for anti-American protests.
I certainly don’t want YouTube to start reviewing my uploads. YouTube accepts almost everything, even has a blocked off section for X rated stuff.
When You Tube gets into blocking my content because they don’t agree with conservatives, they’ll have a fight on their hands.
Besides, if you truly roam through You Tube you’ll find some of the dumbest stuff in creation.
Leave ‘em alone. Actually, I think I’ll put up some Mohammed cartoons. We just can’t live in fear of “Muslim” outrage.
FR has gone a long way downhill since I learned of it in 2000.
Oh boy. YouTube also allows videos of people shooting GLOCKS, therefore Google/YouTube conspired with the Dark Knight shooter.
This is terrible logic.
Exactly right.
To gin up the mob, the muzzies redubbed the video in Arabic and presented an excerpt on Egyptian TV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnM_NuW0r9M#t=106s. Note how they blurred out the female.
BINGO!!
Pre-Election SURPRISE.
Muslim Brotherhood + Barak Obama = "cue the unrest".
