It appears that the turmoil over the innocent naming of a classroom teddy bear “Muhammad” in Khartoum has ended. British teacher Gillian Gibbons is back on her home soil and the Islamo-fascists now have to look for something new to get angry over. Has anyone besides me noticed that these people never, and I mean never, are pictured with a smile on their face. Even if they had gotten their way and Ms. Gibbons was executed for this blasphemy, they would probably still be wearing those scowls.

If my child wanted to call one of her many bears “Jesus” that would be just fine with me. I know she loves Jesus and so much so that she wants to give that name to one of her bears. Now, if she put a noose around its neck and started to hit it like a pinata I would have a much different outlook but that’s not the case here or in Sudan. This group of Islamists need to find some joy, and perhaps a good start would be a gift from the good ol’ USA in the form of a Vermont Teddy Bear.

Seriously though, it’s time we all wake up and realize that this is much more than a case of accused blasphemy but another excuse for the Islamo-fascists to spread their hate of anything non-Islamic. Even if we brought our troops home and left Iraq and Afghanistan unscathed, the fact that countries like the United States and Britain continue to thrive infuriates them. They hate our freedom of speech, freedom of religion and our prosperity. We’re beyond diplomacy with these radicals and we need to deal with them like we did the Nazis. However, as with the Nazis the people within those controlled countries that want no part of the extreme hatred need to rise up and fight for change. We should help and support their efforts, but the bottom line is that it’s their country and they have to fight for it just like we did for ours. Until then, watch for metal detectors and bag inspections coming soon to your local Build-A-Bear workshop.
