That said, I find it hard to believe that the people who give these things out (or Rushdie himself) didn’t nip this is the bud. I don’t think anyone would have thought that al-Zawahiri would start posting videos about it but you’d have to be very, very naïve to think that the Muslim fellas would have let this past unnoticed.
It is, of course, wrong that fundamentalists can prevent someone being honoured for something but we shouldn’t be jeapordising some poor bloke’s life to make a point.
I wonder if Salmon had a say in it?Statistics: Posted by matt611 — Wed Jul 11, 2007 2:10 pm
