I am not supporting the reaction of the Moslems. But why did this woman not know that this was an insult. Was she totally ignorant of Islam etc...? You don't go to a moslem country and use the name of their prophet lightly.

From what I'd read, apparently they weren't trying to name it after their prophet, but after one of the boys in class who is named Muhammed. Nobody in class really thought about it.

BTW, sanity finally prevailed - the teacher is getting pardoned after a couple of Muslim representatives from Britain's House of Lords intervened.
