Following threats to our staff of a very serious nature, and some ill informed reports from certain corners of the British media that could directly affect the safety of staff members, Liveleak has been left with no other choice but to remove Fitna from our servers. This is a sad day for freedom of speech on the net…No #.
… but we have to place the safety and well being of our staff above all else. We would like to thank the thousands of people from all backgrounds and religions, who gave us their support. They realised Liveleak.com is a vehicle for many opinions and not just for the support of one. Perhaps there is still hope that this situation may produce a discussion that could benefit and educate all of us as to how we can accept one another's culture. We stood for what we believed in, the ability to be heard, but in the end the price was too high. LiveLeak.comPrecedence has been set. Soon, you'll hear people talk about when there was something called "freedom of speech", women weren't stoned to death in the street, we could drink a beer, and we wore something called blue jeans. There was a time when there were many different religions and you could post ideas on the Internet without receiving death threats and giving uneducated goons an excuse to riot, destroy, and kill all around the world. BTW- Fitna is still available online elsewhere, for now. Here's the official Fitna website, with video.
