I was referring to the attempt at imposing censorship on YouTube clips et al for political reasons. Whether any clips are misleading in their depiction of events isn't important in that context. The right to depict Israelis or Palestinians in slanderous and misleading ways is important and must not be impaired. However, incitement shouldn't be allowed, but there must be impartial standards for what counts as incitement.

The attempt described in the OP at imposing censorship for political reasons is dumb, and it's just another right-wing attack on democracy.
