PetermansRedemption Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I saw this guy is extremely hated for writing some blasphemous book? Can anyone elaborate what exactly this book states that the religion hates so much? The news article I read did not elaborate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Khomenei (the guy who issued the initial Fatwa against Rushdie) never read the book. He just took it as an article of faith that what he was told about the book was the truth.

muppy Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 this is a comprehensive link regarding backstory and info regarding Mr Rushdie. Still hospitalized. Terrible terrible terrible. https://indianexpress.com/article/world/salman-rushdie-stabbing-new-york-live-updates-8087417/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not putting you down, but from your question one can deduce that you are younger and probably not born yet when Rushdie entered the news. Rushdie wrote a novel about Mohammed taking verses written by Satan as words from Allah. Kohmeni put a fatwah against Rushdie in the late 80s offering millions to his killer. It was a novel. In Islam you can't say anything against Islam. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IN fairness that's how everyone was reporting it, as it wasn't particularly clear what happened....it happened fast...and then it was over. No video. No instant replay. I'm sure a few people were close enough to really know what happened. Bill Maher mentioned last night on his show that he was being STABBED and that it was going on for something like 20 seconds before "security" jumped in to stop it. If he got stabbed over and over like punches for 20 seconds, he might be in very rough shape. I haven't followed up on the story today.

RaoulDuke79 Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 He's not doing so hot. Another odd piece.of information is that his attacker had a fake NJ ID with the name of Hezbollah master terrorist Imad Mughniyeh who was killed by the CIA in 2008.

But I think if you're unsure what happened its probably just better to report that he was attacked, and wait for details for supposing either of those things.

US Egg Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 How ironic. His life now, alive or dead, is hardly newsworthy, unlike his first foray into msm awareness. He serves no purpose in their eyes now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
