...mind, though none of those actually describe the plot of this travesty. Allow me to do my best. The video, presented in stereoscopic 3D, opens with a creature—best described as the bastard child of a yak and a mastodon­—lapping from a stream.

Two years ago, she says, her son Jafar came home from the Sunni-run Muslim National School and told her that his classmates had called him kafir, meaning infidel.
