The claim is that our videos, which expose the hate speech propagated by the Palestinian leadership and controlled media, themselves represent hate speech.
YouTube stated that the account was henceforth terminated "due to repeated or severe violations of our Terms of Use".
Since 2009 they have been deleting specified videos - those mentioned above - but now "terminated" the entire account due to no 6 above:
The main PMW You Tube account called : palwatch was "terminated".I emailed him the information posted here by StabelHand on how to best contact YouTube to complain:
The older account pmwvideos from a few years ago is functioning.

Guys, start writing! And if you have blogs, start publicizing! This is really outrageous. The irony that YouTube allows thousands of Jihadi videos but suspends a whistleblowing group from publicizing them is way to thick. And, as was pointed out, much of PMW's content - including one that is listed above by YT - is from PA TV, which is funded by the EU!
