I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be an internet
if country's could censor web content like Kazakstan is censoring Sacha's. Mr. Ali G's sarcasm remains legitimate and, really, really funny. I'm sorry your country can't take a joke, Mr. Kazak. If we stopped websites like that in the US, there wouldn't be an internet.
Of course with net neutrality being threatened, maybe there will be none soon anyway.
some good quotes from the Ali G experience:
Cohen's Borat Sagdiyev has upset the Kazakhstan government with comedic statements suggesting that Kazakhs make wine out of fermented horse urine, shoot dogs for fun and consider incest and rape popular hobbies.
''We do not rule out that Mr. Cohen is serving someone's political order designed to present Kazakhstan and its people in a derogatory way,'' Ministry spokesman Yerzhan Ashykbayev said.
In a statement posted on the now-blocked Borat Web site, Cohen, who is Jewish, said: ''I like to state, I have no connection with Mr. Cohen and fully support my government's position to sue this Jew.''
''Since the 2003 ... reforms Kazakhstan is as civilized as any other country in the world,'' he said in his video address using the blue Kazakh national flag as a backdrop. ''Women can now travel on inside of bus, homosexuals no longer have to wear blue hat and age of consent has been raised to eight years old.''
