On February 21, 2021, I received the following message from YouTube:
I appealed immediately in the following terms:
This video does not constitute hate speech; it satirises Abraham Foxman, the man who condoned the 2008-9 act of mass murder by the Israeli Government known as “Operation Cast Lead”. It is also factually accurate.
Following world condemnation, Foxman said there would be “more exercise of Israel’s legitimate right to disproportionately protect its men, women and children”.
At the end of the Second World War, the death toll at Auschwitz was given as four million; it has now been reduced to first a million and a half then to 1.1 million. This has been done by regular historians, not Revisionists, and it does not constitute hate speech to point this out, nor to point out humorously that anyone who dares to challenge orthodoxy in this field is branded an anti-Semite.

There used to be limited space for YouTube appeals, but the relevant on-line form has been reformatted, and even better now accepts up to 800 characters.
In the past when I have appealed against a removal, I have generally had a reply within hours. They took their time over this one, as you can see from the screengrab below.
Hate speech indeed.
