Muslims in Mumbai are up in arms against a United States military sniffer dog allegedly with name tag of ‘Khan’ that has landed in the city as part of President Barack Obama security arrangements.

On Tuesday, the German Shepherd arrived in the Mumbai airport from a Hercules C130 transport plane. The German Shepherd allegedly had a tag around its neck which read ‘MWD Khan.’ MWD stands for Military Working Dog. Khan is alleged to be the name of the dog.

Angry Muslims in the city and the state are threatening to protest this ‘insult’ to the community.

The issue became a rage when a tabloid had reported the incident and quoted veteran actor Raza Murad objecting to the dog being named ‘Khan.’

Though noted lyricist Javed Akhtar had been quoted to ignore the issue and focus on welcoming the VIP guest.

Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader MLA Abu Asim Azmi also threatened to undertake a protest. He said that the US deliberately wants to incite the Muslims through such acts and the party would stage a protest on the issue.

LOL!!! It’s been a long time since I’ve seen something from Lil Abner, too long.

Our POTUS hisself shares the name of Mohammed's Horse, Barak.

Its old Arabic root word means something like "Lucky." I also once had an old 1/4 horse named Lucky. It appears that Barak, Barack, and Lucky produced about the same amount of hosshiite.

At least I and Muhammed could ride somewhere on our horses and put the hosshiite in the garden. No such luck with Barack the Mombasa Moonbeam. He's riding us.

They haven’t met our tiger stripe kitty, Mohammed...

Dogs are unclean in Islam. They should have brought in a dog named Mohammed.

And then watch them run berserk!

John Kerry said the dog’s name was Jingus Khan...

[jakerobins]

MWD Khan is the only one in the US military with that name that is an actual patriot.

So now the muslims want to tell us what we can name our dogs?

This $hit is getting out of hand, and we have a muslim president that only encourages this crap.

Change the dog's name from Kahn to Mohammed...and tell the muzzies to STFU.

[Upstate NY Guy]

What if we put women’s panties on the dog’s head? Will that make the muzzies feel better?

Wrap some pig intestines around the dog's heck and shave the word Mohammed in his fur. Take some pictures and post them on the internet. So how that goes over.

[Dudoight]

Oh my gosh. We keep slipping up on the PC...thank God we don’t have shari’a law yet.

Was looking around the net to see if anyone calls their dog Mohammad found this:

“Bush named it.”

Best quip of the day! LOL!

I wouldn’t care what the dogs name was. If he protected me when the time came, that’s all that counts. These people have got to be some of the dumbest in the world.
