BEACH IMPEACH video back up after being pulled by Youtube for "inappropriate content" (war photos)

I received this message from the organizer, Brad Newsham, today.



Last weekend Youtube took this video down 48 hours after it was posted. It was just starting to go viral (500 views overnight) when youtube yanked it, citing "inappropriate" content.

We're hoping nothing like that will happen again. If the video moves you, please forward it far and wide. A few minutes ago (at 9 pm on Tuesday, Feb 27) it had only three views at its new location.

Thank you,
Brad

There are some graphic images used here. They are the type that many Americans have not seen before, and they may find them somewhat shocking. War is ugly. We must end it now!!!

1. The video is going viral, with 1100 views overnight.
Please watch and distribute far and wide.

Americans need to be woken up to the reality of war.

3. I wonder what YouTube finds inappropriate about this video.
But if they prefer to present meaningless junk videos on their website, we all know what to think of YouTube.

11. So what, YouTube is not the only fish in this sea.
There are probably well over 100 sites on the internets where videos can be posted. If YouTube wants to censor, move your video elsewhere. Some possibilities I'm aware of are Bolt, DailyMotion, GoFish, GetDemocracy, and Vimeo.

Note to Mods: Maybe DU should support sites other than YouTube? See these sites.....

DVGuru. Ten video sharing services compared.

Even more sites listed.
