Mohamed Farah, whose name is being distorted by the Team GB PR machine  and as carried on the “mainstream” Murdochite  UK and USA Media and their many equally untruthful, lying tributaries of toxic, corrupt propaganda and Cultural offensive, is one of many subjected to distortion. This racist and imperialist distortion goes to the heart of the corruption on which the Big Biz “Culture” flaunted via the fabtr5carted imageries around the name of “the Olympics” is stood. Of course this latest sample of the corruption culture is not on the scale that Muhammad Ali had been subjected to in the years of his battle against racists controlling the agenda of misinformation, disguised as “the authoritative news” media. Decades after he voluntarily embraced the Islamic faith and declared himself to be Muhammad Ali, the “Champ” was being violated and insulted by being still referred to as “Cassius Clay”.

As has been shown by successive thinking members of the anti-racist population of the “African Americans” in the USA, the NAME and the CULTURE that the NAME signifies [= the “Nomenclature”] and symbolises are as important if not more important than the person’s/persons’ very humanity. So ANY attempt at distorting Muhammad [however it may be spelt in the English or in other western racist imperialist linguistic contexts] and to abbreviate it into an offensively violating “Mo” or any variety of that distortion, is a deliberate act of violation and deserves to be treated as that.

Early life and education

Born in Mogadishu, Somalia on 23 March 1983,^[9] Farah spent the majority of his childhood in Djibouti.^[10] He later moved to Britain at the age of 8 years old to join his father, speaking barely a word of English.^[10][11] Farah's father was born inEngland and grew up in Hounslow, London; his parents met after his father went on holiday to Somalia.^[12]

For his education, he attended Feltham Community College in London. Farah's athletic talent was identified by physical education teacher Alan Watkinson at Isleworth and Syon School,^[13] who later said of him: "When I first met him, he was struggling academically and suffering from the language barrier. He needed focus and I sort of took him under my wing. His passion was football but it was his turn of speed on the pitch that showed his real talent." His ambition was to play as a right winger for Arsenal^[14] and Watkinson would encourage Farah by allowing him to play half an hour of football before their training sessions.
