Fear not: radical Islam on the Internet is still alive and well.
Just days after positive signs emerged that the spread of radical Islamist hate speech on the web was to be curbed in part, the blocked content has made its way back online.
On Nov. 3, YouTube—the popular online video-sharing site—announced that it would begin pulling videos of al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) cleric, Anwar al-Awlaki, spewing hateful rhetoric against the West and in support of violence. While this effort appeared promising on the surface, Google Inc.—YouTube's owner—has found it much more difficult to deliver than originally thought. Scores of videos by Awlaki, and others featuring the words of the radical cleric, still show up from a quick search on the website.
