Maybe this is why Anders Behring Breivik thought that Muslim immigrants would be bad for gays in Norway?

The Pakistani Senate has severely condemned the hosting of a gay pride ceremony by the US embassy in Pakistan and sent the matter to the Senate Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs for taking any possible action. The committee will see whether the parliament had the jurisdiction to debate the issue in any of its houses and what kind of action could be initiated against the organizers of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) function that was held in the US embassy in Islamabad. The lawmakers condemned the statement of the US embassy that announced support for such persons in Pakistan, saying that GLBT activities were against the basic principles of Islam and the constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, and hence could not be allowed.
