    Chief telecommunication regulator Zia Ahmed said Sunday that access to the site has been temporarily blocked because it was publishing caricatures that may hurt the religious sentiments of people.


    So Bangladesh can no longer access Facebook?

    Oh no...

    Maybe we should stop buying shit from Bangladesh and teach these twits a lesson... If I took a crap every time someone published a picture of Jesus or made a humourous take on him I would ban half everything in the free world..

    Given the fact that Bangladesh is below sea level and underwater about 80 per cent of the time, I'd really be suprised if anyone actually still living there really gives a shit about an image of the Prophet on some machine that they've likely never seen because it requires electricity to operate.

    This is just more radical islam by the religous elite trying to ensure they maintain their power in Muslim society.
