While it's a somewhat newsworthy video, and it's not difficult to find on YouTube where it's required to register to get to see it:

Does the level of gore it shows (Dead, mutilated people, a woman being shot in the head and the results of beheadings) make it unsuitable for NSG?

Links to it on YouTube is posted here:

yeah i actually registered for the first time to watch it. it would seem if you have to register and claim to be of age to use the link, and its not in any way pornographic it would be at least percieved as politically biased bar it... on the other hand it doesn't require a link. i heard it had been banned from liveleak and just typed the title into youtube, anyone interested should be able to find it without a direct link if people find it to objectionable for the younger posters... of course youtube doesn't really prevent kids from accessing the adult content anyway. having an e-mail account and having to say you're over 18 is hardly child filter.

We don't want direct links to pictures of gore, mayhem, death et cetera on the forums, as we have middle schoolers using the site. Anyone interested can certainly search it fairly easily.
