=== Crusade Against Hate Speech (02:18) ===

[00:00:01]  The usual suspects are at it again.
[00:00:04]  It's a crusade against hate speech that can be named speech Jews hate to hear.
[00:00:10]  The latest round of this sanctified struggle has EU bloggers in its crosshairs.
[00:00:15]  Bloomberg News was one of the first to cheer on tech giants to form a posse of online intermediaries to throw gags into offenders' mouths.
[00:00:23]  Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Microsoft all made a pact with the EU to apparently do just that.
[00:00:31]  Reuters reported that Jewish lobbyists, frequently the target of hate speech, welcomed the agreement.
[00:00:37]  Of course! Moshe Cantor of the European Jewish Press, who calls criticism of Israel the new anti-Semitism.
[00:00:45]  There is a new type of anti-Semitism which is called anti-Israelism.
[00:00:50]  Hailed the agreement as an historic pact that could not arrive at a better time.
[00:00:55]  Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt of the Conference of European Rabbis, who says Muslims and Jews are natural allies.
[00:01:02]  We see ourselves fighting together with our Muslim brothers.
[00:01:09]  They are our natural allies.
[00:01:11]  Applauded the agreement as the first step in combating a culture of fear.
[00:01:17]  And Robert Singer of the World Jewish Congress, who tells the line of Jews being a light to the Gentiles.
[00:01:23]  This is our moment to be a light unto each other and to all other nations.
[00:01:27]  Said tens of thousands of YouTube videos voicing racist hate speech must be stopped.
[00:01:34]  Oh, the horror. Hate speech is decimating cities, leaving entire nations in rubble.
[00:01:40]  But it's just text or a video that one may or may not click.
[00:01:45]  It's not like it chases you down, puts a gun to your head, and says, click it or tick it.
[00:01:52]  Censorship is always a slippery slope.
[00:01:55]  What starts as a way to protect a victim turns the classic victim into a perpetrator.
[00:02:03]  Jews are always the perfect victim, now of hate speech, which must be censored.
[00:02:10]  Voltaire once said, to learn who rules over you, find out who you're not allowed to criticize.
[00:02:17]  So who's applauding internet censorship?
