If there is a significant demand for haram, then that is the problem and not so much the haram itself. People need to work on their hearts. This is futile.

That might explain the sudden timing. Youtube has some good dawah videos and such, along with some dumb stuff and just stupid people.

An Iranian friend was telling me on her last visit to the country, she saw that facebook was banned and western movies were shown but with the women blacked out. it's not just the images that can be unislamic and harmful but the *messages* that are given out too and im talking about some pakistani tv shows too. you can't go round banning things..i mean what next, put a ban on the use of the internet? :roll: I think its stupid.

Home to Osama bin Laden. There's something on YouTube to offend just about everyone. Until the nations of the Muslim nations of the world ban Islamists from holding public office, they have no hope of being accepted by the rest of the world. That's fine, if that is what they choose, but they must accept that they will live forever in ignroance and under the thumb of religious oppression. Ah, yes!
