Your comment broke the TOS.

Go and whine to the site admins.

Personally I would disagree that it broke TOS, but that sort of thing is more about the hosting provider's touchiness rather than my own opinion.

That said, @ScorpioGlitch, nobody appreciates urinating in the sandbox.

There's no reason to tiptoe about a lying leader especially when we know that everything that was said was a lie.

I have stronger morals than that.

And if you had stuck to calling the Taliban liars that might not have ruffled feathers. It might be fine to point out that claiming women will have all the rights and privileges their religion allows is actually kinda ominous in light of how their sect seems to interpret the texts. But you painted with a broader brush than that, expanding your claims to encompass muslims as a whole. I'm not inclined to optimism about Islamic culture either, but I certainly understand unruly's objection.

The comment was a borderline TOS violation in my opinion. @ScorpioGlitch could've stated the same opinion without violating the TOS.

We're usually pretty lax about enforcing that rule, but that comment with that wording stays deleted.

It's a theocracy. If talking smack about a theocratic leader is breaking TOS regarding religion, there's a serious problem with not only the TOS but also people's sensibilities. JFC, Divine Right was destroyed centuries ago with good reason. And if you talked smack about the king operating under Divine Right, it was heresy. Is that what we have now? It's a theocracy so you have to be able to talk smack about the politician or the entirety of the subject is religious persecution. There's no other way about that.

All you have to do is pay attention to what every islamic leader in history has done with treaties and when they take over. The pattern never changes - treaties never last 7 years (specifically), they say one thing when they take over a country but do something else. Christ, have you never read A Thousand Splendid Suns? That's literally one of the major points of the book. Talking about it is quoting history.

Are you going to suddenly outlaw people talking about leaders who express Holocaust denial now? Are you going to outlaw someone asking for undeniable evidence of the Holocaust or asks someone for contrary evidence to something that believe might be undeniable? Or maybe you're going to stop people talking about the Pope and how he covers up child molestation in the church since he's a leader who's refusing to do something about it?

It does amuse me that a 7 year peace treaty with Israel is literally a Sign Of The End Times.

Citing history as fact isn't any kind of violation. That kind of SJW crap needs to stop.
