it seems there is indeed a dog called Khan http://www.rediff.com/news/report/obama-visit-the-dog-that-protects-the-american-president/20101106.htm Judy Evans --- On Mon, 22/11/10, Veronica Caley <molleo1@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: Veronica Caley <molleo1@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [lit-ideas] Re: Obama Security-Dog's name outrages Muslims To: lit-ideas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Monday, 22 November, 2010, 16:09 Thanks Judy. I was trying to find out if there really was a dog by that name. I actually ran across a comment somewhere that the name was German and it was spelled a little differently. The other thing that caught my attention is that India is majority Hindu and it seemed odd that the Muslims there would say anything. Lots of conflict there over religion too.

It's a very minor "nothing really happened" story about a tabloid stirring up trouble among some Muslims in Mumbai re a US security dog allegedly called Khan.
