From Dhimmi Watch:
A BRITISH children’s author who named a mole Mohammed to promote multiculturalism has renamed it Morgan for fear of offending Muslims.
Kes Gray, a former advertising executive, first decided on his gesture of cross-cultural solidarity after meeting Muslims in Egypt.
The character, Mohammed the Mole, appeared in Who’s Poorly Too, an illustrated children’s book, which also included Dipak Dalmatian and Pedro Penguin, in an effort to be “inclusive”.
This weekend Gray said he had decided to postpone a reprint and rename the character Morgan the Mole even though there had been no complaints.
“I had no idea at all of the sensitivities of the name Mohammed until seeing this case in Sudan,” said Gray. “As soon as I saw the news I thought, oh gosh, I’ve got a mole called Mohammed this is not good.
“I feel incredibly sorry for that teacher,” added Gray. “Luckily for me, I’m in a position where I can avoid this.” The book has sold 40,000 copies in Britain and abroad since 1999.
Just as well it was not a Teddy bear, as I am sure that the peace loving members of the moslem faith would have been out in force calling for his death. Hell, I bet that Foreign Sec. David Milicunt would have happily handed him over to the headchoppers of the Sudan for punishment.
Yep, here we see the happy multicultural mess that is New Labours "cool Britannia" where artists and writers self censor for fear of death at the hands of moslems.
