One Facebook, Two Faces [One is Real Ugly]

By Saad Mustafa Warraich, Karachi – Pakistan

I had been banned from Facebook and my account had been disabled a night before Facebook was banned in Pakistan. Before all this happened, I visited the blasphemous page “Draw Muhammad Day” and the content on the page hurt me badly.

Once again a certain group of westerners called it the “freedom of expression” and went on to show extremism – something they always verbally disassociate themselves from.

As a response to this lunacy, I thought it best to find out how they respond to others’ right of freedom of expression – I created an Adolf Hitler page right away and it read, “To all those who think they can ridicule Islam in the name of freedom of expression and yet punish those who speak of the genius of Hitler”.

The comment on the wall read, “Let’s hit them where it hurts them the most”. Further I added some photos of the Fuhrer, Nazi Party and the Italian Footballer Paolo Di Canio who was banned and fined by FIFA two years ago for performing the “controversial” Roman Salute which according to him gave him a sense of belonging to his people.

Within an hour tens of people joined the Hitler page which was named “H | T L E R”. The very next time I tried to log in I found out that my profile had been disabled for ‘violation of Facebook Regulations’.

Facebook’s reply for my inquiry was as following (also shown in above screenshot):

Hi Saad,

After reviewing your situation, we have determined that your violated our Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. One of Facebook’s main priorities is the comfort and safety of our users.

We do not tolerate hate speech. Targeting people based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, or disease is a serious violation of our standards and has resulted in the permanent loss of your account.

We will not be able to reactivate your account for any reason. This decision is final.

User Operations,

Now how is it that Hitler is termed as the most evil person in the history of mankind while those that bomb Muslims, commit heinous crimes in their countries, ridicule their Prophet and Quran and as a result hurt the sentiments of 1.2 billion Muslims are hailed as heroes? And I wonder why the victims of Holocaust are more important than victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Despite the protest of a large number of Muslims, Facebook has not removed the blasphemous page from the website.

According the statement issued by Facebook their policy is to withhold such content in countries where it is controversial. The statement specifically says that we do not remove Nazi content from Facebook because it is illegal only in a few countries. As two-faced statements go, this one takes the prize. Perhaps before issuing the statement the Facebook did not realise that words like “Adolf Hitler”, “Sieg Heil” and “Nazi” are not allowed to be used on Facebook to create new pages.

And if all this and the removal of Hitler page and the permanent deactivation of my profile isn’t enough, here is a testament to Facebook’s vile hypocrisy. The statement issued by Facebook on 20 May says, “We strongly believe that Facebook users have the freedom to express their opinions, and we don’t typically take down content, groups or pages that speak out against countries, religions, political entities, or ideas.”

While, in another instance, Facebook replied me in entirely different way. Excerpt and screenshot is given above.

Now these two conflicting statements speak volumes about the discrimination by the Facebook. It simply means that Facebook through its official statement to global media wants the world to believe that they are the torchbearers of freedom of expression and allow everyone to speak their minds out. On the other hand the face that individuals like me get to see is a much horrible one. It talks about hate and intolerance and all forms of so-called equality and unshakable resolve. While Facebook is portraying itself as the silent and innocent onlooker for the entire world, I wonder what gives them the right to remove a major chunk of my life from the web.

I don’t think Facebook should come up with any clarification statements for the Muslim world over what happened. It is clearer than crystal that as long as we are labelled as extremists, we are not going to enjoy the equal rights in this world. And those that are trying to play God love to label us that. While reporting the Facebook ban in Pakistan in different articles, guardian.co.uk mentions the brutality of Pakistan Army in Swat whileYahoo thinks it’s necessary to unveil Al-Qaida’s plans of attacks on Danish and Dutch football teams. It is a blatant attempt to criticize Pakistan for placing the ban, link the country to extremism and terrorism and thereby justifying this sacrilegious act of Facebook users.

interesting. Hipocracy

 

[kugga]

But still they say that we are doing all this in the name of "freedom of speech" like uncle sam is fighting wars for peace and specially to bring "Democracy"

 

[TaimiKhan]

This is not the first case and not the only organization.

I had pasted on youtube an IED attack video happened in Iraq on a US Abram tank, which i got from somewhere else, and to my surprise after a week, it got deleted with a warning that not to post such material, while on the other hand there are hundred of videos showing bombings and killing of innocent people.

But as the video was of US forces getting IEDed, it was offensive for them, but what they show of ours is OK and allowed for people to view it.

Pathetic double faced western hypocrites.

Here's why he deserved to have his facebook page deleted.

The Holocaust - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

6 million people were systematically slaughtered. They were burned alive, gassed, shot, poisoned, experimented on, maimed and buried alive.

The holocaust is no joke and anyone that tries to compare it to a cartoon, irrespective of religious sentiments, deserves to be punished appropriately. It amazes me how such ignorance is tolerated around here and in the Muslim world in general.

Religion will never have the overarching status it enjoys in the Islamic world here in the west. Not today, not ever. You cannot compare what can be construed as an 'insult' at worst (a joke at best) to the horrors of the holocaust. This isn't hypocrisy, its history.

Over 70 million people died because of Hitler and you think its ok to chant 'hail fuhrer'?

'Hit them where it hurts the most', who's them? humans? what in gods name do you think he would have done when he got his hands on brown people?

How come there aren't any violent riots in Pakistan (or any other Muslim country) every time an Islamic terrorist murders innocent civilians, but sh!t hits the fan as soon as someone draws a cartoon. Tell me honestly, shouldn't a violent religious extremist trouble you more than a cartoon? Isn't he slandering the name of Islam far more than a cartoon ever could?

Instead here we find this fine gentleman, who'd rather spend his time pointing out the 'hypocrisy' of the west, and the rest of the world, creating pages of Hitler and then accuse everyone of 'conspiring' against Islam.

No one here bothered to point out any of this, and that's as ominous as it gets.

I'm sure ordinary Germans would've rather just gone about their lives in 1939 but instead they were pitted against the rest of the world simply because not enough of them stood up to the Nazis. Think about that for a second, and what it could mean for your country.

I request all to make pages of 'Hail Hitler' and 'Holocaust is a Big Lie'. This is not because we love Hitler or his doings but only to reveal true face. When a big no. of account will be banned from Facebook, it will surly bring true face of Facebook in front of whole world.

Are you trying to say that facebook allows graphic material (people dying etc.) ??

Can you post the videos in question?

 

[XYON]

FACEBOOK should change its name to DOUBLE-FACED BOOK instead!

The Americans, where this Facebook was created and generated, are indeed bigots when it comes to other people sensitivities!

Case and point is the example stated here by KUGGA!! Well Done Sir, you have indeed well exposed the Dr. Jackle and Mr. Hyde mentality of the FB!

So by your post I can say that nobody should support America because they killed more than one million people in heroshema and naagasaaki with there neuclear bombs......???
Facebook should ban all Amrica loving pages.........
I think hitler was a man everyone have freedom of speech to share his views about him.... not just because he killed jews he should not be discussed at all.....
and also there are many other men in history who have done more what hitler did there is halaaku khan and others like him but there is no ban on discussing them why???
