Will Rushdie go into hiding again?
With the author's name on the Birthday Honours List this year, British muslims are renewing their "jihad" on on author Salman Rushdie:
A Pakistani minister says Muslims would be right to carry out suicide attacks over author Salman Rushdie's knighthood.First of all, if these fuckers had actually read the book, they wouldn't bitch. It SUCKS. SUCKS. No one would have read it if they hadn't made such a stink in the first place. Now it's a classic.
Religious Affairs Minister Mohammed Ijaz ul Haq told the country's parliament: "The West is accusing Muslims of extremism and terrorism.
"If someone exploded a bomb on his body he would be right to do so unless the British government apologises and withdraws the 'Sir' title."
In Multan, effigies of the writer and the monarch have been burned by about 100 students carrying banners and chanting "Kill Him! Kill Him!"
Second, if Sir Salman goes into hiding, will they cancel Top Chef or just find a new host? Mrs. Salman Rushdie, a.k.a. Padma Lakshmi, is the host. Her knowledge of all things culinary as well as her sharp personality and beautiful face makes her a great host. It would be sad if she had to give up her career for her own safety.
It's the Religion of Peace and Tolerance, my friends. Always remember that,
