    Does Pakistan actually have free speech? It's their country, they can do what they want. But for us to call them our allies is ridiculous. Almost as ridiculous as fighting in Astan for people who believe the same things.

    I was referring to Facebook caving in to Islam,
    like everyone else is.

    When was private enterprise ever a fighter for free speech. It's all about the dollar, so you do what brings in the most of them. If there were enough of an outcry about this in the west, the page would go back up, since I'm sure they get way more revenue from the west.

    Being a Muslim and Pakistani maybe I should comment :D

    Well Pakistan is a nation on the path to becomming the next Afghanistan and its filled with too man too many blind " proud pakistanis " just like the US. I think the US should just invade it and absorb it into its 51st state as most of them are going to the US anyways. Would save them Air fare ! :mrgreen:

    You must be confusing it with the bible mate where people try to "adapt" it with the times. The Quran has remained unchanged since Day 1

    As for the Cartoons. I say whatever man, if it rocks their boat then sure go ahead.
    Just because I am allowed to draw a picture of a cow fucking your mama because of my freedom of speech and experssion rights does not make it right, ethical or morally correct. Right ?

    Well, I for one would love to see a cow fucking Green Tiger's mom, though it should be remembered that a cow is, by definition female, so I presume it would involve dildos or some kind of human-cow cunnlingus? :lol:

    I knew they would do this, everybody always caves in when one muslim puts up a hissy fit. Though I cannot wait to see what the outcome is in regards to the people that setup the draw muhammad day in protest of this bs. Hopefully they will keep responding back unti'll facebooks grows a pair and leaves content they deem acceptable alone. So those people who are protesting against this bullshit can continue there efforts.

No, because if you try to change it it will be "type of atack on religion" religion is one of the most difficult changing things.
