    Thumbs down Twitter gives official "verified" badge to terrorist group, but bans conservatives

    Twitter banned milo because he said leslie jones looked like a man.

    Twitter though continues to verify violent organizations. Take into account the recent verification of this account:

    https://twitter.com/info_shibir

    Their profile says they are the "Official Twitter Outlet of Bangladesh Islami Chhatrashibir, one of the largest student organizations in Bangladesh. Concern-'Leadership & Morality'.

    Here is what wikipedia has to say:

    -In 1971, Shibir's predecessor, Pakistan Islami Chattra Shangha,[8] members of which led the formation of Al-Badr, which was involved in the 1971 killing of Bengali intellectuals; some members of Al-Badr had been convicted and executed by International Crimes Tribunal

    - This student group was also involved in violent clashes with other student groups,[7][14] was extremely militant and was linked to numerous acts of violence.[15] The group was linked to a number of larger terrorist organizations, both in Bangladesh and internationally.[15] Shibir activists are known to attack rival political party members by cutting their opponents' tendons.[16][17][18][19] However, political infighting between rival groups in Bangladesh are rampant, and infighting and killings in the rival Bangladesh Chhatra League are often blamed on Chhatra Shibir

    - In February 2014, US-based defense think tank IHS Jane's published a report titled "IHS Jane's 2013 Global Terrorism & Insurgency Attack Index", where Shibir ranked third in a list of most active non-state armed groups in 2013.
    [21] The organisation protested the study findings, strongly condemning the ranking.

    "A Saudi prince has increased his holdings in Twitter, making him the company’s second largest shareholder.Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin Abdulaziz Alsaud, who in 2011 invested $300 million in the social network, now owns 34.9 million shares of Twitter’s common stock, according to a new regulatory filing (pdf).
    At nearly 5.2%, his stake in the company is now larger than that of Jack Dorsey, Twitter’s co-founder and newly re-minted CEO,"
