I'm afraid, it's not only the Taliban. Correct me if I'm wrong but
doesn't the Bible say that we shouldn't be taking pictures, too?

Let's face it, if we want to follow William Robb's advice, we'll have to
close down this group. Pity, really.

Or do you think discussing the theory of picture taking would be allowed
as some kind of free speech as long as we don't actually take any
pictures? What about abstract subjects? There must be a way...
