"Pakistan Conservatives Condemn Gay Rights Event At US Embassy"
I wonder why we would do this when we could have done nothing...
This is from the International Business Times website:
"Irate protesters in Karachi called the event 'an assault on Pakistan’s Islamic culture.'
According to Dawn, an English-language Pakistani daily, Mohammad Hussain Mehnati, a top official with JI, told a rally: 'We condemn the American conspiracy to encourage [bisexuality] in our country. They have destroyed us physically, imposed the so-called war on terrorism on us and now they have unleashed cultural terrorism on us.'
Mehnati added: 'This [event] shows [how] cruel America has unleashed a storm of immoral values on our great Islamic values, which we’ll resist at all costs.'
In Islamabad, the youth wing of JI, burnt a US flag and shouted 'we are ready for jihad against the US.'"
