BACKGROUND
[On the morning of 7 January 2015 at about 11:30 local time, two brothers, Saïd and Chérif Kouachi, forced their way into the offices of the French satirical weekly newspaper Charlie Hebdo in Paris. Armed with assault rifles and other weapons, they killed 11 people and injured 11 others in the building. After leaving, they killed a French National Police officer outside the building. The gunmen identified themselves as belonging to the Islamist terrorist group Al-Qaeda's branch in Yemen, who took responsibility for the attack.]
[Cricket World Cup 2015 started from the mid
January 2015. As soon as the schedule was announced, Pakistani youths like from
all others cricket playing nations started cheering for their team. Please see

If you carefully listen to the audio and compare it to other genuine unaltered
videos, the chants are “Jeetay ga… Pakistan jeetay ga” (Will win… Pakistan will
win) additionally the siren like sound is a classic noise from an air horn used
by cricket spectators / fans from Pakistan and sometimes from India.
CONCLUSION
The
source of this video which has been intentionally tagged with fake description
and optimized for Google’s search engine comes from a YouTube channel called
“new to Islam” with the following URL: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9LrjZDubbjdKW5Td5WPNug
The
ten months old video poster claims that Pakistan youth based in UK Tooting / Luton are celebrating Paris attacks on
Charlie Hebdo from January 7 2015. It is not claiming celebrations of the
recent Paris Atacks although the video has started showing up again in the
search results as the search terms being used are same as the ones used for
January 2015 Paris Attacks.
This
channel is openly anti-Islam and anti-Pakistan and posts “stuff” which would
hurt the targets directly by damaging their global reputation and / or hurt the
feeling of the targeted community. In short it’s a “hate channel” hosted
on YouTube and as Google owns YouTube this video and other content from this
channel is accessible on the web.
