Well I'm glad you have the objective viewpoint on which kinds of propaganda are OK and which aren't.
If ISIS recruiting materials shouldn't be hosted, then neither should military recruiting materials from any other nation or political group.
Of course, the real solution here is to not try to police political speech on the internet and let people decide what they believe for themselves. If people are deciding to join ISIS, our job is to communicate why we think ISIS is wrong, not to subject the internet to moral censorship.
