you are too naive
you hack their site, they will open 50 more.
This is why muslim countries are **** holes, nobody understands even simple politics.

lol thats not the point.

point is that there will always be enough people to counter their bullshit.

Why what is wrong with being nude, is it a criminal offense. Otherwise there are many other websites with nude pictures available and they seem to be not prosecuted against.

They know children have access to the website. If children access a website with pornographic matierial they are committing a criminal offense. And if the website knows that they are, they are committing a felony which could result in millions of $ in losses.

Since you are so keen of posting your nude photos on the internet, why not go search for "Facebook of sex" or something.

I'mHalal.com | private beta will be leading search engine in the Middle East and Asia region.

No need of googlistan

what kind of halal search engine is that where you need activation before you can even search something. I registered but i am still awaiting for an approval as a beta user participation.

I don't think it will be successful - will see when its operational - but IMO nothing can beat Google under current circumstances and i am happy with Google for now :smokin:
 
However, what Muslims continually fail to understand, particularly in Pakistan, is that the evil-minded, bigoted and racist Islamophobes derive enormous pleasure from our reaction to their mischief by pelting stones at public property in our own country, setting private cars ablaze, going on strikes from work, closing down schools and colleges and finally, hitting at innocent non-Muslims among us and their places of worships.
Speaking for myself, I take no pleasure in Pakistan's decisions to wallow in ignorance and to fail to counter, if not actually cultivate, religiously-motivated violence against minorities.

How is it that the Telecom folks have the authority to do this, anyway? Is enforced ignorance really necessary and desirable for the Land of the Pure?

Locals shout 'Death to Facebook', burn US flags

KARACHI: Pakistani protesters shouted “Death to Facebook”, “Death to America” and burnt US flags on Friday, venting growing anger over “sacrilegious” caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) on the Internet.

The Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) banned access to Facebook, YouTube and more than 450 links, including restricted access to Wikipedia in view of what it called “growing sacrilegious content”.

PTA released a toll-free telephone number and email address, and has acted on complaints received by the regulator.

In Karachi, Pakistan's biggest city, religious parties mobilised hundreds of protesters onto the streets to demand a ban on Facebook and an apology from the social networking site for humiliating Muslims.

Activists shouted slogans such as “Death to Facebook”, “Death to America” and branded the United States the “root cause of all mischief” at the peaceful rallies, said an AFP reporter.

In Multan, a shrine city in Punjab province, hundreds of people rallied, burning US flags and tyres to block traffic before dispersing peacefully.

In the northwestern city of Peshawar, about 250 students and religious activists staged small protests, chanting “Death to Facebook, death to Youtube,” and on one occasion torched a US flag, an AFP reporter said.

If you don't like that, how are you planning to change it? Is it really enough, as some Pakistanis seem to think, to ignore the extremism and concentrate on improving the economy instead? I don't think so; that has been the approach of Pakistani technocrats for three generations now, and their failure is sufficient demonstration: increased wealth serves to power extremism, or is held hostage by them.

I don't see how things can change without an ideology backed by people power, do you?

Pakistanis divided after Facebook banned over Mohammed (peace be upon him) cartoons

Edit: Image removed
The group that caused the ban.

When an American cartoonist posted a fictional poster on Facebook suggesting that "Everybody draw Mohammed", she was not expecting it to result in street protests, a boycott, and a court order banning the social networking website in Pakistan. Alas, she was wrong. Two of our Pakistani Observers give their reactions to the nationwide and indefinite ban, and the Facebook group that caused it.

The controversy began after an episode of the American satire show South Park was censored by Comedy Central for including an image of the prophet in a bear suit. In response to this censorship, 49-year-old Seattle cartoonist Molly Norris posted a fictional poster that included, amongst other things, a teacup and a cherry claiming to be Prophet Mohammed. She called, jokingly, for an "Everybody draw Mohammed day" on May 20.

The poster went viral and was picked up by news agencies. On April 25 Norris was interviewed on a local radio station - something she says she now regrets. The interview subsequently inspired Facebook user Jon Wellington to set up a group called "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day!" In under a month, the group had attracted 80,000 members and over 7,000 pictures had been submitted.

Unsurprisingly, the group was not received well by Muslim Facebook users. A torrent of angry blog posts appeared online and a Facebook group entitled "Against ‘Everybody Draw Mohammed Day' - May 20" soon attracted 38,000 members. In Pakistan, angry web users turned their attention towards Facebook itself for allowing the group to exist. Not only was a group launched to boycott Facebook (ironically, on the website itself), but street protests sprang up across the country, attracting the attention of the government. A temporary ban was put in place by the Pakistan Telecommunications Authority (PTA) on Tuesday. The very next day, after pressure from a group of Islamic lawyers, the Lahore High Court ordered a total and indefinite ban on the social networking site.

On Thursday afternoon the Facebook group disappeared, but only temporarily. As this feature went to press it was available.

The poster that sparked the group

This is a version of the original poster that was subsequently scribbled over by its creator, Molly Norris. The original illustration is in black, the amendments are in red. Posted by Molly Norris on her website.

“I hope that Facebook administration will remove the page, it’s inflammatory and insensitive”

- Adil Najam is a Pakistani professor of international relations at Boston University. He writes for the blog, All Things Pakistan.

I hope that Facebook administrators will remove the page [Everybody Draw Mohammed Day]. Not because of any ‘banning' movement, and not because of the Lahore High Court. Just because the page and the idea behind the page is inflammatory and offensive. Regardless of what your belief or religion might be, to throw out offensive and hateful vitriolic for the simple and primary purpose of hurting someone else's feelings - when you know that (a) those feelings will be hurt and (b) when hurting those feelings is really the only purpose of doing what you are doing - is inhuman, cruel, and clearly offensive. If Facebook does not recognize that, then it knows nothing either about ‘social' or about ‘networking' and certainly not about ‘community'. (http://observers.france24.com/post ...2010/05/19/facebook-draw-muhammad/#more-13276)


“Muslims have always been prone to emotional discourse which provides immense pleasure to our enemies”

- Adnan Ali is a social media strategist from Lahore, Pakistan.

I will not be supporting any boycott by Muslim users of Facebook, nor shall I support any block or ban by the PTA.


This is a media war. Muslims have always been prone to emotional discourse which provides immense pleasure to our enemies. Moreover, boycotts are going to leave the social media space open for those who hold incorrect beliefs about our Prophet PBUH.

This is another organized attack, just like the original cartoons. They know how we will react to such outrageous behaviour. They know that our blood will boil in emotional outrage and then we will destroy our own properties, kill our own citizens and provide another blow to our weak economy.

Instead of promoting the blasphemous content by adding the link to my status message and creating groups and pages that showcase this content, I would create a Facebook group or page to praise the Prophet Muhammad PBUH."


But at one level it matters little now whether Facebook removes the offensive page or not. The page and its creators have already fulfilled their purpose: seeking attention. And it is we ourselves who have helped them do so. " (Why I will not boycott Facebook on May 20, 2010 & How Muslims Should Respond | ~FurSid)

Pakistan is the appointed flag bearer of Islam, the OIC (Organisation of the Islamic Conference) is like a bunch of cowards, they probably thought it would be best to choose the aggressive retard fighter in the gang who acts first and then thinks later. Thus we overlook anything to do with Islam while others enjoy themselves and we with our demented twin Afghanistan are involved in fighting with all kinds of superpowers (past, present and future).

I for one find this to be a very cool thing and hope this great trend of Pakistan as the first and only line of defence against any attacks on Islam continues. :lol:

Pakistan ka matlab kya? La Ilaha Ilallah

:pakistan:

actually both Pakistan and OIC were created for a very good purpose. We did not fullfilled our promises when we got independance and the leaders who laid the foundations for OIC were killed in one way or another. Other leaders did not have the guts to do anything

So it has now become a useless organisation - but when it was created - it was to serve a great purpose from Muslims
