"Islamicfascists to the left of me, Islamophobes to the right, here I am – stuck in the middle with you” to misquote the great Steeler's Wheel. Damn, but, there are a lot of morons about this aren't there? Between the calls of 'bomb Sudan', 'send in the SAS' and 'let's all join Al-Quaeda' it's hard to hear a sensible and considered opinion on all this recently misnamed Teddy Bear malarkey .

If you can name children 'Mohammad', why can't you name a Teddy Bear after the Prophet as well?

Because you're a white, middle aged, educated western woman in a Muslim country: that's why. Everything you do is going to be analysed and red-flagged if the slightest bit controversial, because basically – and let's not put too fine a point on this – your a white, middle aged, educated western women. And 'we don't like your kind round these here parts'; to steal a great red neck homily.

However, she shouldn't have been so naive, she's educated and obviously if she went to Sudan – she must have had an inkling of what the cultural and political climate of the country was like. She must have known how quick to take offense certain Islamic theocratic societies are, and she must have known despite all her good intentions (or because of them) she was a sitting target for idiotic religionazis.

The children who participated in the 'democratic' naming of the Evil Teddy Bear Mohammad, should also be thrown in jail for 15 days of course, but expecting legal congruity and common sense justice for all in the realm of Sharia 'law' isn't a winning gamble at the best of times. Especially because British 'modern justice' has it's own pathetic religion pandering side to it. For example, the upholding of the right of British Airways to terminate that employee that wore a small cross beneath her blouse.

Never fear though, this situation will soon be resolved, because like the wonderful representative elective dictatorship we are, we are sending two MUSLIM unelected house of Lords wallahs to talk to the Sudanese government. Hold our collective breaths? I don't think so. Labour and such might be stupid enough to think that sending Muslim peers exclusively to smooth things over and secure an early release will work. The rest of us, will look at the reality, which is:

Two BRITISH Muslims don't mean a hill of beans to a fragile junta of religious fanatical appeasing corrupt politicians in a far off land where they hate the Britain of today, for being it's colonial master, yesterday.

It's as simple as that. Good luck Gillian Gibbons, 54 of Liverpool. May the people you tried to help, whose children you tried to educate, have mercy upon you. Especially because this government is too pathetically sissified to tell it like it is and put some real pressure on to help you. Hopefully those children you were torn from helping, will learn from your stoic example in this, overcome the vile indoctrination of Sudanese society and help build a better future for a country that has thoroughly embarrassed itself on the world stage...

... but then I'm not holding my breath on that.

“and your friends, they all come running, stab you in the back and say appease....appease...."
