Mob bay for teacher's death
TERRIFIED teddy bear row teacher Gillian Gibbons was being held in a secret jail last night — after a
10,000-strong armed mob took to Sudan’s streets screaming: “Kill her, kill her.”
Quote:
The Liverpool mum of two — convicted of insulting Islam by calling the bear Mohammed — was sneaked out of the capital Khartoum hours after being jailed for 15 days.
Fanatics demanding her execution by firing squad streamed out of mosques after prayers — grabbing machetes, knives and clubs. The hate-filled protesters — whipped into a frenzy by religious leaders — converged on the presidential palace as it emerged Gillian was an INNOCENT victim of a vindictive school secretary.
Pictures of Gillian, 54, were burned as hardline clerics in pick-up trucks chanted through loudhailers: “No one lives who insults the prophet.”
Gillian, from Aigburth, Liverpool, escaped receiving 40 lashes but was instead thrown into one of Sudan’s most hellish prisons.
She is likely to serve ten days — after already spending five in a cell. She will then be deported. Protesters yesterday were adamant she MEANT to offend Islam.
Sword-waving Yassin Mubarak raged: “What she did requires her life to be taken.” Hardline cleric Abdul-Jalil Nazeer al-Karouri declared: “Imprisoning this lady does not satisfy the thirst of Muslims in Sudan.”

For those Rosie O'Donnell types who believe Christianity is as violent and destructive as Islam, how many times have you seen Christians doing anything like this?...
Oh yeah...You gotta go back 500 years...
