Oh Dear....We flipped it ( Disney's "My Very First Encyclopedia with Winnie the Pooh and friends) open and noticed that some of the pages had been vandalised with a black marker. We figured it must have been bought and returned after some kids had got there hands on it. Further inspection made us realise that this was actually systematic. Someone had deliberately "censored" out each and every picture of Piglet from hundreds of pages in the book with a black marker (my guess is that the book got caught by Saudi Censors enroute to Doha).
Not an isolated incident.
It just dawned on me why hate is such an integral part of the Islamic religion...It's the only emotion strong enough to be capable of illiciting adherence to such irrational premises as this.
