I can't imagine Al Manar intends the subscription model to be a profitable venture. What if Al Manar decided to post all of their programming to YouTube? Would YouTube be in trouble for selling advertising alongside those videos, even if there is no economic transaction between YouTube and Al Manar?

No. If there is no economic transaction there is no crime. They might attempt to argue that youtube is providing "material support" but it has already been established in court that operating a website is not "material support." First amendment interests trump.
