At the beginning of the week, tensions were high, with Sufi teddy-protesters shouting over hoarse Darfur-ists and rapacious Janjaweedos, decrying the 15-day jail sentence issued Ms. Gibbons for the crime of blaspheming his holiness as too lenient.

Teddy Muhammad, meanwhile, was in custody somewhere, probably waterboarding.
