Dhimmi Street

The Wall Street watchdog organisation SIRA has changed its name to FINRA.

Why? Because the previous acronym sounded too much like the Arabic word for biographies of Mohammed and, according to a spokeswoman,
We operate in a global, multi-racial, multi-religion environment, and we strive to be sensitive and respectful to all. To remain true to that spirit, we have decided that selecting the alternative name for our new organization is simply the right thing to do.
Translation: We'll be good dhimmis. Don't hurt us.

Why is it that Mohammad keeps looking more and more like L. Ron Hubbard?
