Good for youtube. They did block this from Egypt and Libya and Google did as well but they did not take this down and they issued a public statement.

YouTube refuses to take down video that caused murder of US ambassador in Libya — RT
In a rare public commentary, YouTube said in a statement that maintaining an environment in which all opinions can be expressed, and which everyone can enjoy, "can be a challenge because what's OK in one country can be offensive elsewhere. This video – which is widely available on the web – is clearly within our guidelines and so will stay on YouTube. However, given the very difficult situation in Libya and Egypt we have temporarily restricted access in both countries. Our hearts are with the families of the people murdered in yesterday's attack in Libya."

I guess the Kate Upton booby dance video was more offensive than the Muslim video as it was taken down for a day or so.

That's exactly what I thought when I read this. The point of terrorism is to invoke fear.
We CANNOT let them fear us into submission to their demands because it will never end.

I wonder if Great Britain will block it since you can be arrested and sent to prison there for inciting hatred under their laws.

Haven't been paying too close attention to network or cable news so excuse me here but...

THAT was the movie that they got all pissy about?

I saw the link somewhere and watched it thinking it was a joke; thought it was a mockery of the actual movie they were upset about. THAT is what they murdered people over? What a bunch of fricken wankers.
