This sound Crazy; See how Dad of student slain in Paris terror massacre sues Google, Twitter, Facebook for their 'material support; [No tweets, no YouTube, no likes, no killings, court told.....]

A grieving father has sued Google, Twitter and
Facebook, alleging the web giants enabled the Paris terrorist attacks
that killed his daughter.
Nohemi Gonzalez, 23, was a California student
spending a semester in the French capital when she and 129 others were
murdered by gunmen and suicide bombers aligned with ISIS. She was the
only American slain in the atrocity last November.
Her father, Reynaldo Gonzalez, has now sued the trio
of US companies, claiming the web giants' websites and apps were used by
the terror group's masterminds to brainwash people into joining their
ranks, profit from video ads, and coordinate attacks.
"Without defendants Twitter, Facebook and Google
(YouTube), the explosive growth of ISIS over the last few years into the
most-feared terrorist group in the world would not have been possible,"
the lawsuit, filed in the northern district of California on Tuesday, argued [PDF].
"This material support has been instrumental to the
rise of ISIS and has enabled it to carry out numerous terrorist attacks,
including the November 13, 2015, attacks in Paris where more than 125
were killed, including Nohemi Gonzalez."
The lawsuit argues that the medieval terror bastards
used Twitter and Facebook and Google's YouTube channel to garner
supporters and funds. It also claims Google is partially funding the
terror group by sharing advertising revenue with them.
"This complaint is not about what ISIS's messages say," explained
Ari Kresch, a lawyer with 1-800-LAW-FIRM representing Gonzalez. "It is
about Google, Twitter, and Facebook allowing ISIS to use their social
media networks for recruitment and operations."
The tech goliaths being sued have all pointed out
that they are doing their best to block terrorists using their services,
with Facebook commenting that in the event of "evidence of a threat of
imminent harm or a terror attack, we reach out to law enforcement."
Google said that it has "clear policies prohibiting
terrorist recruitment and content intending to incite violence, and
quickly remove videos violating these policies when flagged by our
users." It declined to comment on the specifics of the lawsuit.
Twitter has already removed thousands of accounts
suspected to be linked to terrorist groups and says it currently has
"teams around the world actively investigating reports of rule
violations, identifying violating conduct, and working with law
enforcement entities when appropriate." ®
