YouTube disables new Press TV account without explanation

Video-sharing site YouTube has disabled Press TV’s account for the fourth time in less than two months, blatantly violating the alternative channel’s right to free speech.

“This is the fourth time since July 25 that YouTube disables our account without any explanation,” said Press TV newsroom director, Hamid Reza Emadi. “They’re violating our right to freedom of expression under all international norms.”

YouTube’s move to disable Press TV’s latest account comes as new evidence has emerged indicating the global Zionist lobby’s instrumental role in the video-sharing site’s decision to block the channel.

It should be noted that when an account is disabled, the user will not be able to upload any new videos while previous videos are still available.

An article on The New York Times links the ban on Press TV to two consecutive complaints made by the Anti-Defamation League, the global arm of Zionist propaganda.

“The same Zionists that have tried their best in recent months to drag America into a war on Syria were also behind banning Press TV on YouTube,” Emadi said.

“The United States has been held hostage to Zionist lobbies for a long time; American media are control by the Zionists and even American tax-payer money is being used to fund Israel’s atrocities against the defenseless Palestinian children,” he added, stressing that YouTube must be held accountable for its biased approach towards Press TV.

The author of The New York Times article was unable to get an official reaction from the YouTube Team just as Press TV’s repeated attempts to seek an explanation from the video-sharing site has been met with a meaningful silence up until the publication of this piece.
