PAKISTAN TWEETS
Hassan Raza @HRazaPK:
"There will be ppl like LA filmmaker, but protesters need to be told they can't loot, arson and riot."
Josh Shahryar شهريار @JShahryar:
Dear Peshawar: Is this Ishq e Rasool Day or Nafrat e Public And Private Property Day?
Josh Shahryar شهريار @JShahryar:
Height of irony? Today happens to be the International Day of Peace: http://www.un.org/en/events/peaceday/ (h/t @_shireenahmed_)
Huma Yusuf @humayusuf:
Ouch. Reuters headline says it all: "Pakistani protesters clash with police on Muslim "Day of Love" #muslimrage
Iftikhar Firdous @IftikharFirdous:
For heavens sake don't use the term Ishq-e-Rasool Protestors,its organized crime!!! They are looting shops,banks before my eyes! #Peshawar
Aamir Nawaz Khan @aamir_khan82:
Dunya ko "Strong Message" ke bajaye "Wrong Messsage" chala gaya. #Pakistan #Protests
Arshad Afridi @Arshad_Afridi:
RT @myrakhan Its not Ishqe Rasool Day, its common-man-of-pakistan-lets-out-all-his-frustrations day
Saba Imtiaz @Saba_Imtiaz:
For people who may want to be productive, work with the KMC staff tomorrow to clean the debris off the roads.
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
@AtikaRehman @SenRehmanMalik It's begun. My phone is not making any calls.
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
@AtikaRehman @SenRehmanMalik Mr. Malik, how long can you hide your govt's cowardice&inefficiency by a shut down policy?
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
@AtikaRehman @SenRehmanMalik Mr. Malik, no concern for the loss and setback to the country's economy?
Ayesha Hasan @AyeshaHasan:
Scientists say they've discovered "a new Earth-like planet." Good, because we're just about finished with this one.
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
I fear this Yom-e-Ishq-Rasool day will be a permanent feature on Pakistani calendar like Kashmir Day. What's that proverb, 'Empty vessels'?
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
Not good. Mogambo bilkul khush naheen hua, just one killed? What is happening to Muslims? They are becoming vegetarians.
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
Mufti sahab, yeh kya baat huyee, just 1 killed? Your religion want sacrifice of more lives. It's thirst screams for more blood
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
It's good idea to turn this Yom-e-Ishq Rasool into Yom-e-shahadat-e-aasiqaan-e-Rasool by killing all these morons
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
Congratulations to ghairatmand Muslims: Death toll rises to 4 in Karachi. Some progress, but lots more to be achieved. Not good enough.
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
@Razarumi No, Raza, be scared, be very, very scared. Imagine when ghiaratmand Muslims will be in power. The day is not far
Iftikhar Firdous @IftikharFirdous:
They were double cabin pickups since day before yesterday, distributing pamphlets on Uni road announcing to bring own weapons.
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
What are they waiting for? Tanks, drones, nepalm all should be used against these mad creatures
Mohsin Sayeed @MohsinSayeed:
Wine shop on Boat Basin was looted, no bottles broken, just stolen by self-proclaimed 'Lovers of The Prophets' and ghairatmand Muslims
Shakir Husain @shakirhusain:
The fucked up bit is that there will be no arrests, no prosecution, & no consequences for the perpetrators & leaders of these riots in #Pakistan
QZ @Natrani:
@marvisirmed that's what they did yesterday? How did the protestors enter Islamabad? Who let the d*** out?
Shabbir Hussain Imam @peshavar:
@beenasarwar Hamara Islam zinda hota hey ... her Blasphemous Film k baad.
Shabbir Hussain Imam @peshavar:
Geo showing PTI/mullahs burning & breaking things infront of Serena Hotel, Islamabad. Didn't they call for peaceful protests?
Ammara Durrani @ammaradurrani:
The net result of Friday protests: loss of lives and assets of Pakistani people only. This is how we demonstrate our love for our Prophet.
Haider Changezi @Aushpaz:
So if this is how Pakistani muslims express their love...imagine how they will express their hatred! #Ishq e Rasool Day #Pakistan
A K Chishti @akchishti:
If we don't stop these protests today, there will be bigger one's after this: we MUST STOP this madness - they are criminals!
Farrukh Khan Pitafi @FarrukhKPitafi:
Nishat Cinema in Karachi set on fire. Was it playing #Innocence of Muslims ?
Marvi Sirmed @marvisirmed:
In every meeting, they ask for 'waqfa bara-e-Namaz', break for Namaz. I don't see any break for Namaz in protests. Zohor & Asar missed. Haaw
Umber Khairi @umberkhairi:
@beenasarwar @peshavar Peaceful and mullahs? Contradiction in terms
A K Chishti @akchishti:
all madarssa'a crowd is led by Jamaat-e-Islami, JUI, Sunni Tahreek etc today in #Karachi - some of them are armed!
Abbas Nasir @abbasnasir59:
Chalo loot maar shuru. Mahmood of Ghazni would be so proud of you.
Farieha Aziz @FariehaAziz:
So what was the logic of the youtube ban Pakistan? Wasn't it meant to calm down people? Or today's public holiday?
Imran Saeed Khan @ImranSaeedKhan1:
@beenasarwar @gulbukhari Wishing for a moon again, mam? CJP will grant them bail on first hearing on benefit of doubt :)
Beena Sarwar @beenasarwar:
So the bottom line is, ban youtube, or declare a public holiday, appeasing the right-wing political forces using religion doesn't work.
Mustafa Kamal Khan @MKKhan_:
@beenasarwar Those asking for peaceful protest are so naive or ignorant. They don't know Pakistanis protest
Asad Munir @asadmunir38:
Like earthquake and floods, these protesters are "Allah Ka Azab" on the people of this country.
Farrukh Khan Pitafi @FarrukhKPitafi:
Not one politician on television right now calling for restraint. #Pakistan
Waqas Tariq @waqastariqWT:

Mohammad Taqi @mazdaki:
Ok Media,Ulema and PPP,this Friday is almost ending - please issue new schedule 4 mayhem next week.People gotta stock up on rioting supplies
Aleem Maqbool @AleemMaqbool:
Lots of live rounds fired in last few mins, more tear gas. numbers definitely increased close to diplomatic enclave
Nosheen Abbas @Goshno:
Hameed Gul gave a speech before protestors erupted..they were throwing huge stones..some photographers & policemen were injured
Nosheen Abbas @Goshno:
Policemen were awfully nice--kept giving us water and salt. A lot of tear gas in the atmosphere--couldn't breathe.
Bushra Gohar @BushraGohar:
We certainly need to be saved from ourselves.
Arsalan Ghumman @ArsalanGhumman:
#FACT: There are some elements who make their protest violent to get more media coverage
Umber Khairi @umberkhairi:
@arsalanghumman Yeah, boring people, sitting around with candles and flowers, can't compete with this bloody violence...
Mehr Tarar @MehrTarar:
So much rage. If it was truly religious, they might have done something useful with their lives instead of torching #Pakistan
Abid Hussain @abidhussayn:
I know how I am going to express my love come next Valentines Day.
Abbas Nasir @abbasnasir59:
After years, it seems MQM's lost control over Karachi.
Aamir Mughal @mughalbha:
Wahabi States spread anarchy in other states but use Danda within their states against Mullahs

Aamir Saeed @AamirSaeed313:
Religious parties have become businesses, their sermons are infomercials, with verses sounding like commercial slogans.
Newsweek Pakistan @NewsweekPak:
The police cover is too thin and the mob is too determined. Fear that the U.S. Consulate in #Lahore will be attacked. #LoveProphetDay
Afia Salam @afiasalam:
Mufti Naeem appeals for calm on TV. Sorry Mister the bozos out on the street too busy to hear your words! Juma ke khutbey mein kehtey na!

This is a test of strength of religious parties & they have shown what they can do
Ayesha Mysorewala @ayeshamysore:
It's my mum's bday tomorrow. I think I'll show her my love by setting the garden on fire. #love prophet day #leave Pakistan alone
Asad Munir @asadmunir38:
Most of the protesters missed 2 prayers, they were busy in a more important, sacred duty, to destroy and loot properties.
Madeeha Syed @madeehasyed:
What they are doing IS blasphemy. In the name of the Prophet (pbuh) no less.

Mustafa Qadri @Mustafa_Qadri:
Will PM Ashraf's call to ban hate speech lead to prosecution of Malik Ishaq and others who promote hate speech in Pakistan?
Naureen Ansari @nShyne:

After a long day at work faithbulls are now dispersing. Mission accomplished! Eh? What a day we have just witnessed as #IshqeRasoolDay!

People spend entire family earnings & life to build a business, some times generations, sad to see destroyed by goons.
Beena Sarwar @beenasarwar:
Let's be clear. Those attacking, burning and looting weren't 'Muslim protestors'. They were violent, armed criminals. #Pakistan

#Pakistan death toll today: 5 dead in Peshawar, 14 in Karachi

Josh Shahryar شهريار @JShahryar:

NILIM DUTTA @NilimDutta:
Before ridiculing those who went on a rampage yesterday in Pak, may I remind how many schools we burnt down in #Assam between 1979-85? So aroused were we by AASU's patriotism to chase Bangladeshis out, we burnt down our own schools, bridges...no, these weren't Muslims.
