KHARTOUM, Sudan - A British teacher has been charged with inciting hatred, insulting religion and showing contempt of religious beliefs after her class named a teddy bear Muhammad, state media said on Wednesday.


I find this a complete overreaction on the part of the Sudanese government and I'm Muslim myself. Children don't know any better and it's not as if she was deliberately trying to insult Islam. Furthermore, they could have easily asked her to renam the bear and explained why and that would have been the end of it. No wonder most of the world thinks we are just violent extremist terrorists...
