A DOCUMENTARY FEATURING mothers surviving Israel’s genocide in Gaza. A video investigation uncovering Israel’s role in the killing of a Palestinian American journalist. Another video revealing Israel’s destruction of Palestinian homes in the occupied West Bank.
YouTube surreptitiously deleted all these videos in early October by wiping the accounts that posted them from its website, along with their channels’ archives. The accounts belonged to three prominent Palestinian human rights groups: Al-Haq, Al Mezan Center for Human Rights, and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights.
The move came in response to a U.S. government campaign to stifle accountability for alleged Israeli war crimes against Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.
That’s kinda what I’m getting at. The waiting involved in watching one would kill me when they were popular. I was starting college in 04, and we upgraded to broadband shortly before I started, so I didn’t really go to them much at all before that. Watching a tiny gif was actual torture on dial up, video wasn’t even attempted unless it sounded REALLY cool.
