For “inciting hatred”
Youtube video hosting removed the channel of the retired US Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter Show, who commented, among other things, on the situation in Ukraine and often criticized Washington’s actions.
As the military expert himself noted, he was not provided with examples of violations. In his Twitter account, he noted that by his actions, the video hosting shows signs of “the disease of Russophobia that has engulfed America and American social networks.”
Knowledge is strength, ignorance is weakness. YouTube is weakening America and Americans with its actions,” Ritter said on his Twitter
YouTube administration removed the channel of former US Marine Scott Ritter
Now, when trying to open Ritter’s YouTube channel, a message appears on the screen that the video is not available because the account associated with them has been deleted from the platform. A possible reason for the deletion is called “discriminatory speech”.
Scott Ritter was born into a military family in 1961 in Gainesville, Florida. He graduated from high school in Germany and later graduated with honors from Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Received a Bachelor of Arts degree in the history of the Soviet Union. In 1980, he began serving in the US Army and already in 1984, Ritter Scott was appointed an intelligence officer in the US Marine Corps, where he served for about 12 years. He was a leading analyst on the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the Iran-Iraq war.
From 1991 to 1998, he was a United Nations Inspector, while serving as Chief Inspector on 14 of over 30 inspection missions.
