Obama's security dog named 'Khan': Muslims irked

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.

Turkish word khan meaning "chief", "ruler", or "nobleman".

Wikipedia states this term is used to describe Muslim rulers though.

At least they didn't name the dog Muhammad ; )

He should give him the name of Steve Martin’s dog in “The Jerk.”

Ghengis Khan embarrassed them on the battlefield about 800 years ago and they are still smarting over it.

Genghis Khan was Mongolian. Maybe muslims didn’t like him either.

I don't think that there's anybody that they do like.

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.

There once was a dog named Khan
Whose name Muslims took offense upon
He traveled to Mumbai
And dry humped a young guy
And so Muslim approval he won.

Yes, ol’ Mo WAS a cat person. Cut the sleeve off his gown, because his cat fell asleep against his arm, and he didn’t want to wake her....

If the nutty and fanatical Muzz follow this trend they will issue a fatwah on anyone who utters Muhammed, or any other other word they forbid, except in Islamic prayer.
