Pakistani Christians accused of blasphemy murdered outside courthouse

Police were transporting Pastor Rashid Emmanuel and his brother, Sajid Emmanuel, from the court in Faisalabad to jail when masked gunmen opened fire, killing the two Christians and seriously wounding a policeman accompanying them before getting away, reported Washington-based International Christian Concern.

The brothers had been arrested on July 2 after being accused of writing a pamphlet with blasphemous remarks about the Muslim Prophet Muhammad – a crime punishable by death.

The two had just made a court appearance when Monday’s attack took place, prompting strong words from ICC. “It’s outrageous that the Islamists managed to kill the Christians while they were under police custody,” exclaimed Jonathan Racho, ICC’s regional manager for South Asia

I am not a Muslim if this is Islam!

Fox News: Pakistan No.1 in the world in pornographic internet searches

Since the source was Fox News I had to double check the claims myself using Google Insights:
http://www.google.com/insights/

Even though the claims were true, I can easily tell it was quite biased as well, according to Google Insights 6 of the top 10 countries that search for "porn" are Western countries:
1.     Papua New Guinea    
2.     Trinidad and Tobago    
3.     United Kingdom    
4.     Ireland    
5.     Canada    
6.     New Zealand    
7.     Bangladesh    
8.     United States    
9.     Jamaica    
10.     Australia

Moreover, ironically 6 of the top 10 countries that search for "sex" are Muslim countries:
1.       Viet Nam     
2.     Pakistan    
3.     Eritrea    
4.     Bangladesh    
5.     Sri Lanka    
6.     India    
7.     Somalia    
8.     Syria    
9.     Egypt    
10.     Yemen

Nonetheless, the article made a valid point, Pakistan was lately banning many popular websites including Facebook for offensive and blasphemous material while at the same time it's of one the top searchers for pornograhpy! This is just a total irony!

The Muslim country, which has banned content on at least 17 websites to block offensive and blasphemous material, is the world's leader in online searches for pornographic material, FoxNews.com has learned.

“You won’t find strip clubs in Islamic countries. Most Islamic countries have certain dress codes,” said Gabriel Said Reynolds, professor of Islamic Studies at the University of Notre Dame. “It would be an irony if they haven’t shown the same vigilance to pornography.”

So here's the irony: Google ranks Pakistan No. 1 in the world in searches for pornographic terms, outranking every other country in the world in searches per person for certain sex-related content.

Pakistan is top dog in searches per-person for "horse sex" since 2004, "donkey sex" since 2007, "rape pictures" between 2004 and 2009, "rape sex" since 2004, "child sex" between 2004 and 2007 and since 2009, "animal sex" since 2004 and "dog sex" since 2005, according to Google Trends and Google Insights, features of Google that generate data based on popular search terms.

The country also is tops -- or has been No. 1 -- in searches for "sex," "camel sex," "rape video," "child sex video" and some other searches that can't be printed here.
