A Pakistani court is investigating a blasphemy charge against the 26 year old CEO of Facebook in which if convicted, can mean a death penalty for Zuckerberg. Rest assured, he won't be heading towards Pakistan for a vacation for the foreseeable future.

Zuckerberg is being charged under the Pakistani penal code Section 295-C, which goes on to say: "Use of derogatory remark etc, in respect of the Holy Prophet, whoever by words, either spoken or written, or by visible representation, or by any imputation, innuendo, or insinuation, directly or indirectly, defiles the sacred name of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) shall be punished with death, or imprisonment for life, and shall also be liable for fine."

#4 Ever since Salman Rushdie, the West has needed to send a profound message to Islamic nations: NO death penalties against your citizens in our countries; and NO death penalties AT ALL against our citizens in our countries, or it is an act of war.

This is a sliding scale. On one end, if a foreign dictator flees his country to a western nation, he should be home free. You might charge him in international court, but you cannot send hitters to kill him. The reason is that being able to flee is the only thing keeping some dictators from insane genocides.

In the middle of the scale are people like Salman Rushdie and Hirsh Ali. Their being out of your hair is reward enough. A powerful message to Islam: anti-Islamic PR is not enough to kill somebody in the civilized world.

On the other end of the scale is somebody like Zuckerberg. The instant some Pakistani judge gives him a death sentence, that judge should have an international arrest warrant put out on him, and any international assets of that judge should be subject to automatic seizure.
