Apparently David Miliband had a 'serious' talk with the Sudanese ambassador. And now - wait for it - now a Muslim peer, Lord Ahmed, is flying out to Sudan.
Is this appropriate? Is it enough? Should we have 'gone in' and somehow freed the teacher?

i think what people forget is that she broke the law in Sudan. she had been living and working there for a while even if she did not know the law( ignorance of the law is no excuse anyone living aboard should learn the laws of where they are living) she should have known better. The Sudan judge has treated her quite well compared with what she could have got.

Given the context of the situation, sending troops to Sudan would be an act of war, and naturally this would be the last resort for the government. Since the Sudanese are open to talks, it makes sense to try and resolve the situation with no blood spilt, rather than send troops, inflame the situation and possibly lose the poor woman anyway.

Appropriate? You sure your British? we should withdraw all aid, we should be telling these countries , you release our citizen or you will face the consequences, just for the facts it was the children who named the teddy bear, and the length of the sentence is not important, what matters is they have taken a Brit and stuck them in some hell hole in Sudan with no real basis for any kind of punishment, and just to top it off she nearly got 15 lashes. its in my opinion that is grounds enough to go to war. if that had happened to any other citizen of any other country, she would be out of that place within 30 minutes of her sentencing, but the Government is to busy orally satisfying these Muslim nations to show any real courage or leadership that this country has become so desperately in need of.

Without Prejudice:
This Government seems to be more up on letting people into this country rather than supporting there own. It's a disgrace that this lady could be killed just for calling a teddy Mohamed its an absolute joke that she is getting no support from this country. I have nothing against other people living here but it seems us Brits seem to be have put on a back burner with everything no wonder everyone is emigrating to get out this country.

i've got already study and heard approximately this tale, and that i discover it ridiculous! In u.s., a individual does not be jailed for naming a teddy submit to "jesus" or something like that! yet, in Sudan, human beings don't have the comparable rights to freedom of religion as human beings in u.s. do. I dont not agree along with her sentence in any respect, in spite of the fact that it follows in the guidelines os Sudan. If basically each united states of america on earth enable human beings have as plenty freedom as u.s....! additionally, i've got self assurance that at present the worldwide is only too politically suitable. confident, I actual have solid critiques and no, i'm not afraid to tutor them. I stay u.s., a great united states of america the place human beings have freedom of an mind-blowing point whilst in comparison with different worldwide places. yet you should supply up and think of, what's this worldwide coming to that folk get so indignant over trivial concerns? I advise come on, jailed for naming a submit to a minimum of something that "offends" human beings?? in the process on the instant time in age, "political correctness" has been taken too a techniques. this is my very own opinion in this rely, and thank you giving me the possibility to precise my critiques right here. =]

No they are not, and now with the Sudanese people wanting to kill her they need to get their fingers out of their arses and get her out of there. Then they need to kick the Sudanese ambassador out of this country and show that we will not tolerate racial intolerance - which is what it is. She made a mistake, they are being fanatical.

Close our Embassy in Sudan, stop all aid to this f*cked up country, pull out all the British aid-workers, close the Sudan Embassy here in the UK and throw the feckers out.
The government of this country is too fecking soft.

this government has no loyalty to the British. never has. theres no way those gutless fools are going to do anything outher than stick their toungues further up the Muslim @rse. i cant even bare to look at their ugly traiterouse faces anymore let alone!! listen to them or take anything they say seriously. new labour have done every thing in their power to destroy the security of this country and its people. no doubt in my mind that the barbarism of Muslim Sharia law will soon be the norm in Britain. its allready taken hold in some parts of Britain 'encouraced by the labour party and local police. to help promote harmony in the muslim comunity. and like a social cancer. it will spread untill one morning we will all wake up to the news of our first public stoning. wont that be nice. a British stoning. no doubt new labour will describe it as a step forward into multiculturalism. next!! new labour will be encouraging the practice of marrying 8 year old girls. what next i wonder. our farmers growing our great British export. heroin!!

Decode this lyrics " Words" - don't come easy
Why not?
They doing the best they can.
Ever wonder how the mess expose.
Why being a teacher can be tough on them in communicating with children.
The same with diplomacy.
In communicating with children having to translate our creator's one new uinversal language and one speech in living words into ghostly kitchen's dialect with ghostly and deadly words or vice versa.
Ever wonder why our creator created one universal language and one speech in living words for the good of mankind in the creation of peace on earth goodwill to men?
Genesis 11.1
What do you think?

Let's not go crazy. She only got a fifteen day sentence and will be released in just over a week. Going in and trying to forcibly release her would be ridiculously disproportionate and would be more likely just to get her killed, as well as being an act of war and a propaganda gift to jihadis everywhere.
