Pakistan YouTube Block Breaks the World

Allen54 noted a followup to yesterday's story about Pakistan's decision to block YouTube. He notes that "The telecom company that carries most of Pakistan's traffic, PCCW, has found it necessary to shut Pakistan off from the Internet while they filter out the malicious routes that a Pakistani ISP, PieNet, announced earlier today. Evidently PieNet took this step to enforce a decree from the Pakistani government that ISP's must block access to YouTube because it was a source of blasphemous content. YouTube has announced more granular routes so that at least in the US they supercede the routes announced by PieNet. The rest of the world is still struggling."

Cue "Islam is evil post"

And make sure some clever wag adds a sarcastic "religionofpeace," tag. Then let's have a flame war.

Still, if the country's screwing up global routes, cut off their access.

I am sure your sarcasm would be appreciated by the Christians in Indonesia who has Sharia law applied to them.

Islam is an evil religion, because its content and foundations are evil. The content of the Quran, as read by the average reasonable person, resembles Mein Kampf in its degree of evil. A large number of very widespread and mythologically affirmed practices within Islam are functionally evil.

If the content of a religion is set and given, which it to a large extent is with Islam, and that content is evil, then the religion is evil and will forever throughout history bring pain to the world. If you are the idealistic type - imagine a starship in the distant future where the resident starship imam has just laser-amputated the hand of someone who stole food. That is the kind of set and given evil I am holding you and other defenders of Islam responsible for laying the groundwork for.

Also, I laugh at the hypocrisy of 'Anonymous', who battle scientologists but not Islam. In fact, I think the main reason in the minds of those who have traditionally been strongly against various religions to not target Islam is simply fear - they fear for their safety. So on top of the above, you have a society of frightened people with the mentality of hostages, thanks to Islam. So fuck you.

Islam is a shit religion.

Do these retards really think that God wants them to be obnoxious pieces of shit?
Do they really think God doesn't want women to drive?
Do they really think God insists women cover their faces?
Do they really think God wants to impose his will through their violence and oppression?

I think that Mudsums act the way they do because they smell like shit and they know it. They know that the only way a woman is going to stay with their worthless ass is because she believes God demands it. Nightly beatings enforce God's demand, as does the "shit religion" police.

Pakistan is such a Mudslum shit hole.

We would all be better off if without and Mudslums anywhere.

Mudslums are a violent, oppressive, and ignorant animal. Good riddance!

You are a moron.

I suggest you spend a few weeks in Pakistan.

Take 'your internet' and your Daily Mail with you.
