Author Salman Rushdie in Mumbai Jihadi assassination threat
Sir Salman Rushdie has sensationally cancelled his appearance at India's Jaipur Literary Festival this weekend after Indian intelligence sources told him "paid assassins from the Mumbai underworld" were on their way to the city to kill him.
America first heard of the death fatwa issued by the Ayatollah Khomeini (then Supreme leader of Iran) on Salman Rushdie's head back in 1989, ten years after the Islamic takeover of Iran. And we all thought, how prehistoric, how savage and ridiculous. No one gave it serious thought or consideration or ever imagined it would touch them so violently, so dearly, so close to home as it did in 1993 in lower Manhattan, in the attacks on American targets in the ensuing years, and then finally, horribly, on September 11, 2001. Jihad had come to America.
Who would have imagined when we first heard of the death threat against Rushdie in 1989 that close to 25 years later America would be electing pro-sharia politicians and subjugating herself to the blasphemy laws (under the sharia) that call for Rushdie's execution, under the guise of "hate speech"? And those of us speaking against this bloody tyranny would be the subject of a smear campaign of destruction imposed by a sharia complaint media.
