Having a video removed by Rumble for being too controversial is quite an accomplishment. Like Col. Michael Aquino\u2019s getting kicked out of the Church of Satan for being too evil, it\u2019s definitely something to put on your resum\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>Why did Rumble wait this long to start censoring me? I\u2019ve been saying things the censors don\u2019t like, and inviting guests who say even more things they like even less, for the better part of two decades. I\u2019ve been hard at work spreading all the true conspiracy theories, starting with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/article\/911-was-an-Israeli-job\/?showcomments\">9\/11<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/article\/did-israel-kill-the-kennedies\/\">JFK<\/a>, as well as discussing the most interesting ones that might or might not be true. I have questioned the 2020 election results, explained why my family and I haven\u2019t been vaccinated since the 1990s, blasphemed against the WHO\u2019s pandemic guidelines, opined that COVID was obviously a bioweapon, and earned numerous awards for \u201canti-Semitism\u201d from the ADL and B\u2019nai Brith.<\/p>\n<p>None of that bothered Rumble in the least. After all, it\u2019s a free speech platform, right?<\/p>\n<p>So what does it take to get banned from Rumble? Three simple words: \u201cI support Hamas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As I wrote in my October 28 article \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/kevinbarrett.substack.com\/p\/why-i-support-hamas\">Why I Support Hamas and You Should Too<\/a>\u201d:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">In this week\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/kevinbarrett.heresycentral.is\/2023\/10\/zio-propaganda-implodes\/\">False Flag Weekly News<\/a> I outperformed Cat McGuire (for once) in saying things the ADL won\u2019t like. Angered by the genocide of Gaza, I uttered many uncomplimentary and\/or inflammatory remarks about the Chosen People and their Chosen State. But of all of the \u201coy vey\u201d things I said, what the ADL will hate the most is my open declaration of support for Hamas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">And that, of course, is the most obvious reason to support Hamas: \u201cThey\u201d really, <em>really<\/em> don\u2019t want you to.<\/p>\n<p>Ironically, \u201cthey\u201d proved me right. The ADL spies paid by that multi-billion-dollar organization to watch all my stuff found the \u201chere\u2019s why I support Hamas\u201d section of the video, transcribed it, leaned on Rumble, and got the video banned. (If you have a more plausible alternative narrative, feel free to post it in the comments section. You can still watch the video on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitchute.com\/video\/xrhyjVjP7k06\/\">Bitchute<\/a>\u2014for now, anyway.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI support Hamas\u201d is not a radical or fringe view. It is almost certainly the view of the global majority. Here in the Arab world (400 million people) at least 399 million are perpetually glued to their proverbial chairs awaiting with proverbially bated breath the next statement from Abu Obaida, spokesman of Hamas\u2019s Al-Qassam Brigades, and leaping up from those chairs to wildly cheer every time Hamas releases a new video of its fighters bravely blowing up an Israeli tank.<\/p>\n<p>The Abu Obaida phenomenon is rather astounding. Five weeks ago he was an obscure figure. Today, he\u2019s better known, and far more popular, than Che Guevara ever was. (Even at the height of his posthumous popularity, there were plenty of Spanish-speaking folks who didn\u2019t like Che and what he represented; whereas today, you would be hard-pressed to find anyone among the world\u2019s two billion Muslims with anything bad to say about Abu Obaida.)<\/p>\n<p>So why are we not allowed to say what billions of people around the world think\u2014even on Rumble, the \u201cradical free speech\u201d platform? The answer, of course, is that censorship is the last resort of powerful people who know they can\u2019t win an honest debate. If \u201cthey\u201d allowed us to debate whether or not we ought to support Hamas, it would quickly become clear that there are no good reasons not to, and plenty of excellent reasons to back the entire Palestinian Resistance including its current flagship franchise.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t take my word for it. Read my 2600-word article \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/kbarrett\/why-i-support-hamas\/\">Why I Support Hamas, and You Should Too<\/a>\u201d and then scroll through the 440+ comments. Not one of those comments offers even the slightest pretense of a coherent and detailed rebuttal, or even a link to one. Instead, the only substantive reason <em>not<\/em> to support Hamas that anyone could come up with was that \u201cit might be illegal\u201d (it isn\u2019t, at least in the US) and \u201cit could ruin your career\u201d (if your career requires cowardice, get another career).<\/p>\n<p>The upshot is that there is really only one reason that Westerners who know the basics of who invaded and ethnically cleansed whom in Palestine don\u2019t support Hamas: They are terrified of pushback from rich, powerful Zionist Jews. What they fail to recognize is that if you are afraid to entertain an idea because it might displease the powerful, you have no business involving yourself in the world of ideas in the first place.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Draconian Media Censorship Backfiring?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If they\u2019re removing pro-Palestine videos on Rumble, you can imagine what all of the mainstream not-so-free-speech platforms are doing. Actually, you don\u2019t have to imagine. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/features\/2023\/10\/24\/shadowbanning-are-social-media-giants-censoring-pro-palestine-voices\">Al-Jazeera<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">At the end of last week, Thomas Maddens, a filmmaker and activist based in Belgium, noticed something strange. A video about Palestine that he posted to TikTok with the word \u201cgenocide\u201d suddenly stopped getting engagement on the platform after an initial spike.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\u201cI thought I would have got millions of views,\u201d Maddens told Al Jazeera, \u201cbut the engagement had stopped.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Maddens is one of the hundreds of social media users who are accusing the world\u2019s largest social media platforms \u2013 Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube and TikTok \u2013 of censoring accounts or actively reducing the reach of pro-Palestine content, a practice known as shadowbanning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Authors, activists, journalists, filmmakers and regular users around the world have said posts containing hashtags like \u201cFreePalestine\u201d and \u201cIStandWithPalestine\u201d as well as messages expressing support for civilian Palestinians <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2023\/10\/24\/no-one-is-left-to-mourn-in-gaza-as-israels-bombs-deliver-daily-death\">killed by Israeli forces<\/a> are being hidden by the platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Since the above-referenced article was published on October 24, the censorship, like the genocide of Gaza, has gotten increasingly worse. Yet in spite of social media censorship, or maybe because of it, a gargantuan grassroots pro-Palestine movement has sprung up all over the world. Millions of people, maybe tens of millions, have been hitting the streets to support the Palestinian genocide victims\u2014including, implicitly, the ones who choose to fight back. You can see pictures from some of those demonstrations between the 22\u2019 and 24\u2019 mark in the above-posted <a href=\"https:\/\/kevinbarrett.heresycentral.is\/2023\/11\/world4palestine\/\">False Flag Weekly News <\/a>video.<\/p>\n<p>How did all those millions of people figure out that the Palestinian Resistance is right, and the Zionists wrong (not to mention evil), despite the blanket of censorship imposed by the Zionist billionaires who control most of the world\u2019s media, including social media? It seems that the censorship, like the concentration camp wall around Gaza, has backfired. Rather than keeping people penned up and docile, it has angered them to the point that they are motivated to break through the wall and try to defeat their tormentors. The flood of pro-Palestine content on social media can\u2019t be contained by even a billion-dollar outfit like the ADL that can hire people, and unleash AI programs, to run around sticking their fingers in the exponentially-increasing holes in the dike.<\/p>\n<p>The on-the-ground journalists in Gaza are being murdered by the Israelis at an average rate of one journalist per day (with some seeing their entire families targeted and murdered, as Wael Al Dahdouh did).<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hi-F1m5OfPg?si=Gppyktt449-KxSPA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<p>Yet new journalists keep springing up to replace the murdered ones, just as new Resistance fighters arise to avenge those martyred by the Zionists. The images of the Gaza genocide they are capturing, while heavily censored by Zio-media genocide-enablers, are leaking through the blockade fast enough to awaken an ever-increasing number of people around the world. And every time someone discovers not only the horror of the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%23GazaGenocide&amp;src=typeahead_click\">#GazaGenocide<\/a>, but also the censorship that itself constitutes a crime against humanity, that individual is likely to grow doubly enraged. Pretty soon that person will join the billions cheering the brave and brilliant military exploits of the underdogs.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ClLHBWOL5dQ?si=mwuf960ztl4YCYwl\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XILraSBqC8k?si=WNN6k_6-30DF-fwe\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">At point-blank range, Hamas fighters engage and destroy an IDF Namer (Leopard) armoured personnel carrier in Al-Shati camp.
