Yes, it violated YouTube's terms. It's critical of Israel and Jewish power. This means it qualifies as so-called "hate speech" - in fact a particular kind called "antisemitism".

"Hate speech" doesn't have much to do with hate, and has everything to do with protecting certain groups from criticism. You can hate someone or some group all you like on YouTube so long as it's not on the protected list. For example, Jews are a protected group, and so are immigrants. The purpose of these rules is to prevent criticism of Jews and immigration. Not on the protected list are right-wingers. Criticism of the "far-right" (which includes very tame liberal positions) for example is permitted and even encouraged by YouTube.

Instead of Jews you probably mean criticism of Zionism, Israel's politics, Isreal's wars, Isreal's influence, Jewish Mafia.

No, the guy means Jews.

Don't pretend it's deep or something.
