Unfortunately, this video was rejected by YouTube for “violating YouTube’s Community Guidelines.” How could this be?

Benayahu Melet, hy”d, was one of the founders of the forum “Struggle for Every Dunam.”
He worked for our organization for a year and a half as a bulldozer operator. During this time, he built many roads to remote points on the settlement frontier. He mostly worked at night, out of concern that his vehicle would be confiscated by the Civil Administration, and carried out essential work that no other operator dared to perform.
In recent months, Benayahu also managed this channel, where he warned about the strengthening of the PA army.
