Well here’s some sport’s news from those kooky guys in fun-lovin’ Iran. The world’s craziest government has now decided that the 2012 London Olympic Games logo is racist.

Mohammad Aliabadi, head of the National Olympic Committee in Iran, says that the logo spells out the word “Zion” and is therefore racist.

This is, of course a load of old cobblers, as everyone knows that the logo depicts Lisa Simpson giving head to Bart Simpson.

Undeterred, the Iranians are now threatening to boycott the games altogether. Hopefully this travesty can be avoided and the logo changed to something more respectable, or maybe a compromise could be made by simply placing a burka over the logo.

That should keep everyone happy.
