This is ironic. It's completely alien to me that there have been massive, widespread attacks on American embassies due to a youtube video. I keep wondering why they don't understand something that we learn as children: when you argue with an idiot, you become an idiot. When you engage the bully in the playground, you're giving them power. So it's kind of funny that my home country is also censoring an independent video on youtube. Another example of the web causing a problem for current law. The idea behind the law isn't bad: no personal attacks, equal airtime for every party. Unfortunately, it breaks down when faced with the reality of youtube.

It wasn't due to a Youtube video. That is a PSYOP. I mean, really, how can people fall for this stuff? Massive instant demonstrations in multiple countries in response to a lame 30 minute video on Youtube? Please. Don't believe the hype. http://www.thedailybell.com/4290/Who-REALLY-Produced-the-Film-Desert-Warrior-That-Is-Now-Convulsing-the-Middle-East http://www.thedailybell.com/4290/Who-REALLY-Produced-the-Fil...
