Paging Dr. Samuel Huntington

Gillian Gibbons, a 54-year old school teacher originally from Britain but now teaching seven-year-olds in Sudan, has been jailed for insulting the Prophet Mohhamed (PBUH).

From the Telegraph article:

Robert Boulos, the director of the school, told Reuters that Ms Gibbons set up the project as part of a British National Curriculum course to learn about animals. This year's animal was the bear, and Ms Gibbons asked the children to name the stuffed toy.

Mr Boulos said the children came up with eight names including Abdullah and Hassan, but Mohammed proved by far the most popular.

Each child was given a chance to take the bear home and write a diary about what they did with the toy, Mr Boulos told Reuters.

The website for the Sudanese Media Centre, which has close ties with the country's government, reported that Mrs Gibbons could be prosecuted under "faith and religions" legislation.

It states: "Khartoum attorney office opens a claim under article 125 of the criminal law (insult of faith and religions) against a British national female teacher named Julian (sic) working for unruly school in Khartoum.

"Head of the attorney offices Mutusim Abdallah told (SMC) that legal arrangements are under way to issue warrant of arrest against the suspect upon a complaint presented by the ministry of education.

"Abdallah said the suspect teacher printed the name of Prophet Mohammed PBUH on a doll in a shape of bear."


If I could offer a suggestion, the number of immigrants coming into this country from the nation of Sudan - unless it is zero - should be substantially reduced. We've got more than enough angry morons wandering the streets already.

BS,
It Is my understanding that the Good Old British Government has no plans to reduce the amount of economic largesse - sorry! Humanitarian Aid - with which it greases the palms - sorry again! - wlth which it eases the pitiful plight of the Sudanese people.

Since it is now, clearly, impossible for the West (particularly Britain) to exercise any influence within that benighted country, might it not be time for all Western Nations to withdraw and allow Sudan true autonomy from the evils of latter-day Colonialist paternalism.

We might start, for example, by ceasing to subvert Sudanese patriots in their aim to develop their indigenous and valuable culture. We must stop paying them the 'blood money' by which we salve our collective, neo-colonialist conscience.

Removing the taint of infidel interference will, assuredly, help in the creation of any even more benign government in the region,

BS,
I assume that your new heading picture shows members of either the Great British Public or the Great American Public offering seasonal greeting to one and all?

Grumpy,

Have you really been away from the UK for so long that you no longer recognize your fellow countrymen?

"By Jeshu, I am your majesty’s countryman, I care not who know it; I will confess it to all the world: I need not be ashamed . . . ."

I'm afraid that Will might have slightly different take on the contemporary scene.

BS,
Whoops! Sorry, I should have realised - if only because, behind the handsome bald-headed guy, there is (what I take to be) a member of the British Police Service (or 'SS' as they now prefer to be known).
It was the bodily adornment of the sexy blonde who seems to be asking for two ice-creams for her beautiful children that threw me.

I had forgotten that we Brits were capable of producing pulchritude of such a calibre; the charm and grace of the lady just leap out of the picture.

Didn't Will actually celebrate a female of similar delicacy in his portrayal of Lady Macbeth?

Hi there!
I would like to burn a theme at here. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of financial piramyde, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.

For several years , I earn money with the help of these programs.
I don't have problems with money now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Visit my blog to get additional info.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
