ISLAMIC MONITOR
!! GeoCities Bans Web Page !!
GeoCities, the largest provider of free Web page services, succumbed
to the Moslem pressure group, the Council on American Islamic Relations
(CAIR), and removed a Web page that "outraged Muslims" (CAIR's expression)
deemed hostile to Islam. This was a frightening development, as the Internet
is the last bastion of free speech. Through the Internet, I have had access
to viewpoints that I wouldn't find on traditional media such as TV, radio,
newspapers, and magazines, that have been co-opted by special interests.
GeoCities had promoted free speech on the Internet by offering Web services
at no cost, but they struck a blow against free speech by removing this
Web page!! What better way to protest GeoCities' action than by posting
a Web page on GeoCities!!! Send protests to comments@oocities.com
View the Web page banned
by GeoCities. While provocative in its statements, it substantiates
them by citations to the Koran and the Hadith.
