Most Offensive Pic of the Week

As everyone knows by now, Geert Wilders site fitnathemovie.com has been shut down by Network Solutions for content violation. The only content on the site was the above picture. It would be tough to explain how the pic violates Network Solution's terms of service. But Wilders' site was not shut down due to the site's content rather it was shut down due to his views on islam.

Wilders' has a reputation for stating things about islam and the koran that a certain segment of the population finds offensive. So based on Wilders' history and not what the site's content was or was to be, Network Solutions shut down fitnathemovie.com. Geert Wilders' crime was what he thought about islam, not what he published on his site.

Based on this, I think it might be easier to take down US hosted terrorist websites by explaining to the host company that the site's contain "anti-islamic" material. Because islam is a religion of peace and does not support terrorism, any acts of terrorism are anti-islamic acts as the British elite would like to say. Perhaps then hosting companies will shut down these terrorist sites before they offend the most easily offended.

Kyros , over at jawa ,they have this in the comments ,
but that it also was a financial decision. Network Solutions hosts www.hizbollah.org, the rich terrorist organization funded by the Saudis, and they wanted the Fitna site removed.

Network Solutions has allied itself, for money, with terrorists.
Cannoneer No. 4
what you know ! maybe time to start filing complaints about this place eh!

I just did a WHOIS and it turns out that Network Solutions provides the DNS service to hizbollah.net but the site is actually hosted in Syria.
hizbollah.org = 82.137.205.243

but maybe we can convince NS to drop the DNS service. That would make it difficult for most people to visit the site.
