Is it worth it?? the Cartoonist apologized, the governoment apologized, then why arent ppl ending the issue??

If Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) was alive, you do think He would have done the same??

then why are we doing this, and making a joke out of ourselves?? Why are ppl distroy their own country??

Cartoon was made and published in Denmark, then why put Punjab Natinal Assembaly on fire?? why are they distroying Pakistan??

Do you think, burning Flags and maps and puppets will get us to somwhere??

My take on all this is that, agar Muslims apas main larhna band kar deh, aur apna mazak urwana bandh kar deh, tu shaeed we can get to somwhere.
