YouTube seeks to Restrict the Gospel

For years, many have accused YouTube of employing clear double-standards in regards to video restrictions and content warnings.  For many Christian apologists like Jon McCray who use YouTube to try and teach the Gospel, this has simply become a fact of life.  Jon runs the popular Christian apologist YouTube channel: Whaddo You Meme?  With nearly 300,000 subscribers, Jon's video's reach a vast audieance.  However, over the last few months, many of his video's have been flagged with "Content Warnings" and "Age Restrictions."  Moreover, with every video that he has released over the last few months, they have been flagged by YouTube as not being eligible for adds.  Jon's frustration is certainly understandable considering that other videos such as Lil Nas  X "Twerking on the Devil" and Miley Cyrus "Wrecking Ball" faces no such restrictions despite the fact that they are clearly delivering negative messages to people, especially children.  


Though Jon has won virtually every appeal to YouTube's attempted restriction, the process takes anywhere from hours to over a weeks to be appealed.  As a result, Jon loses out an a lot of potential add revenue, when his ministry depends on in order to continue its operation.  Though Jon is grateful to be able to use YouTube to reach such a wide audience, these ongoing restrictions are keeping him from reaching even more people.  Sadly, this censorship problem is not only with YouTube.  Jon has confirmed that many of the other social media platforms such as Twitter and Facebook are actually far worse in terms of censorship.  It seems that the those who are running YouTube's "Trust & Safety" teams are more focused on censoring content that preaches messages that they don't personally like then they are censoring content that actually promotes negative content.

Hamas Invasion of Israel

The brutal invasion of Israel by Hamas caught the entire world by surprise.  Over the last few years Israel has become accustomed to turning back rocket attacks and occasional cross-border raids by Hamas terrorists, but nobody anticipated this brutal full-out invasion.  Already being dubbed as "Israel's 9/11," militants stormed across the Gaza border and attacked towns across southern Israel.  Already over 900 Israelis are confirmed dead, thousands more wounded, and over 100 hostages, including women & children, have been taken back to Gaza ( Video Footage of Massacres ).   Israeli Woman Taken Hostage by Hamas The deadliest massacre so far took place at the Nova Music Festival in the Negev Desert close to Urim, a Jewish community that lives close to the Gaza Strip.  At 6am on Oct. 7th, the attack on the festival began as rockets rained down and Hamas gunmen appeared and opened fire.  As of now over 260 Israelis are confirmed dead from this attack alone with a number o

The Plague of Jihad is all over the world.  The past few days has witnessed Israel suffer the most horrific attack that it has endured since the October War of 1973, yet for all of the senseless death, for all of the footage that we see of Hamas militants murdering Israelis in cold blood, many in the world are in fact celebrating this atrocity.   Hamas Supporters in Canada In Iran, crowds of Hamas supporters took to the streets to celebrate the slaughter of Israelis by Hamas while their government leaders lavished praise on the terrorists ( Link to Article ).  In the nation of Turkey, Hamas supporters crowded the streets of Istanbul chanting "Allahu Akbar" & "Khaybar Khaybar Ya Yahud" ( Link to Video ).  "Khaybar Khaybar ya yahud, jaish Muhammad soufa ya'oud" is the full version of the chant.  It translates to "Khaybar Khaybar or Jews, the Army of Muhammad will return."  For those unfamiliar with the context of this chant, Khaybar was the

Hamas and Their Child Soldier Training Camps

Image
For years the world has known that Hamas deliberately targets children for indoctrination and training to carry out terrorist missions.  They have camps throughout Gaza and other areas of the Middle East where children are taught to hate, & trained to kill.  These camps are often referred to as "Summer Youth Camps."  The titles sound harmless enough, but unlike the summer youth camps in the U.S. and other Western nations where children play games, do crafts, and in general, have fun, the Hamas "Summer Youth Camps" are nothing like this.  They're training camps, where children are trained in weapons handling, military drills, and are indoctrinated to "hate the Infidel," particularly Jews.   Link to Video On videos that have circulated across the online world, these children have openly confessed that they have come here for the purpose of learning to fight.  One such video surfaced on MEMRI with a child openly stating "We did not come here to e
