Resolved: The Middle East should not be allowed access to the internet

"How the bloody f*ck can we expect a group of people like them (some of which are armed with nukes) to be able to use the internet and not fly off the handle every time they find something offensive?" There are ~ 77,020,995 {1} internet users in the Middle East. The people committing these acts are an extremely small minority. I do not see how cutting off millions of people that have NO part in this is a good idea. "People in the civilized part of the world (civilized = predominantly white) know how to keep their sh*t together when they see something offensive. When the movie "Avatar the Last Airbender" came out did you see Americans start attacking Indian Embassies, Or Pakistani ones, or whichever is the one that M Night Shyalaman came from? NO, because the civilized world has their sh*t together unlike the Middle East." Just like how Germany had their sh!t together during the Holocaust? Just like how the US had their sh!t together during the Cold War? Just like how white Christians have their sh!t together whenever Liberals try to legalize gay marriage? You're looking at this like EVERYONE in the Middle East are evil, primitive, uncivilized scum. This is a vast oversimplification. "YES WE SHOULD, F*CK YOU. Think of any whiny baby youve ever met on the internet, do you think they should be allowed to be on the internet in the first place? NO. " Children =/= grown adults that are capable of using logic. "Some people naturally cannot respond well to something offensive, and when its one or two people, then its fine, they get mad and then b*tch about it for a few days then move on. But we are talking about THOUSANDS of people all across the Middle East completely losing their f*cking minds over this, which is something that White people can take with a grain of salt and still run the world perfectly fine." Let's see... 77,020,995 internet users in the Middle east. Around a thousand people losing their minds {2} So there are 77,019,995 Internet users that will be cut off if your plan goes through. Keep in mind that this is all because of ~1.3 percent of the total internet users in the Middle East. "1) They cant handle anything offensive" 1.3 % can't. "2) They are naturally an easily p*ssed off people" What is this I don't even... "3) They already kill innocent people whenever enough of them get annoyed" So does the US. Should the US be cut off from the rest of the world? NO. That is absurd. "4) They are armed with nukes" Do you think that any nation that still, you know, wants to exist will launch a nuke? "5) Have you seen the f*cking internet lately? Its PACKED with material offensive to people in the Middle East" That's a GOOD thing. "6) Its all just a time bomb waiting to go off that will result in the death of more innocent Americans, which is why we need to strike first to neutralize the threat, just like we did in Iraq (that worked out well right?)" Like I said before, a major military strike from a Middle Eastern country would be complete and utter suicide. Also, if you are trying to prevent backlash, WHY WOULD YOU FORCE A COUNTRY TO BE FORCED OFF THE INTERNET? That seems like a MUCH better reason for people to get riled up. Also, Iraq did not have WMD stockpiles... In fact, the whole Iraq incident probably didn't sit well with a lot of people in the Middle East...{3} "Just like how it allows hatred to spread through embassy fires...." That is the equivalent to saying that we should ban Water because people drown in it. "They have Al-Jazeera and they seem to know how it works. " To not be a hypocrite, you would have to regulate media in the Middle East so that it never says anything that riles people up. This means that you are basically brainwashing people because you are cherry-picking information to feed them. "People sit on the sidelines, so WW4 will occur." So you are punishing people for something that they didn't do... Should I punish you for not being a firefighter? After all, you're just sitting on the sidelines and letting people burn. "Embassies dont get raided, Americans dont get killed, and Arabs do something productive rather then just burn a bunch of sh*t that isnt theirs, for starters." So putting up a wall around the Middle East won't make the small percent of easily-pissed-off Muslims want to raid embassies, kill Americans, and burn a bunch of sh!t? "No its reduced, because the craziest people live on the internet, not on TV or on the radio. It would reduce the amount of stuff Muslims find offensive and start burning American embassies over as well. " I meant that when you ban the Internet, Muslim leaders can basically say whatever the hell they want without people stating facts against it. "They do that anyways!" And only 1.3 % listen... Hmmm.... "Only porn, no logic." So now you're saying that only 2% of the Internet is offensive? Why ban the other 98% then? Also, I disagree that there is no logic on the Internet. Look at the massive amounts of pages on sites like Wikipedia. Go on Youtube and look up some political debates. Google some peer-reviewed studies. "I think Muslims smell funny" Funny how the amount of these incidents are fairly low for the amount of cr@p like this on the Internet... {1}http://www.internetworldstats.com... {2}http://www.aljazeera.com... {3}http://en.wikipedia.org...
