Craig Slee, 42, of Trawden Crescent, Preston, pleaded guilty to four offences under the 2006 Terrorism Act.
Slee also admitted possession of a prohibited weapon.
On sentencing him at Preston Crown Court, Judge Anthony Russell QC said the videos Slee uploaded revealed "shocking and barbaric depravity". 'Perverted of minds'
Slee also put online links to a communique by al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), claiming those from the west were "Crusaders" and encouraging terrorism.
Judge Anthony Russell QC said: "It beggars belief that anyone can have an interest in such material which reveals a shocking and barbaric depravity and complete absence of any degree of humanity.
"There is no doubt that this and the other videos have been created in order to encourage people to rally to the terrorist cause, however difficult it is to comprehend that such material would have that result except for the most perverted of minds."
The court heard, Slee created a false identity and set up a Facebook page - using the alter-ego Hashim X Shakur - and created another account called FB Mujahideen. On his Hashim X Shakur Facebook account, Slee claimed to be a Muslim and provided personal information about himself
