Re: Inter Milan Kit - Offensive to Muslims

I'm sure you're right, ODM. But then I'm equally sure that the Turkish lawyer doesn't really believe there's anything wrong with the Inter shirt either. I'd say he thought something along the lines of - "hmm, how can I drum up some more business - I know, I'll make a frivolous complaint, doomed to failure from the very beginning, but one which will get the headlines, and make me immensely popular among the muslim population who see me making a stand for their feelings".

51,300 Google hits you know, for the name "Baris Kaska". Any bets on the number there were before he made the complaint? I don't know the answer, by the way, but I'd hazard a guess that it's somewhere in 3 figures rather than 5.
