Hopefully he survives.

Author Salman Rushdie attacked on lecture stage in New York​

CHAUTAUQUA, N.Y. (AP) — Salman Rushdie, the author whose writing led to death threats from Iran in the 1980s, was attacked Friday as he was about to give a lecture in western New York. An Associated Press reporter witnessed a man storm the stage at the Chautauqua Institution and begin punching or stabbing Rushdie as he was being introduced. The author was taken or fell to the floor, and the man was restrained.

Iran has maintained a bounty on him for many years now.

Looks like someone finally got around to trying to cash in on Iran's bounty from decades ago.

Breaking: Salman Rushdie attacked on stage, reportedly stabbed

Iran’s government has long since distanced itself from Khomeini’s decree, but anti-Rushdie sentiment lingered. In 2012, a semi-official Iranian religious foundation raised the bounty for Rushdie from $2.8 million to $3.3 million.

Rushdie dismissed that threat at the time, saying there was “no evidence” of people being interested in the reward.

The Iranian Government put up a $3 million bounty on Rushdie's head. I wonder how much of that money came off of the pallet of cash that B. Hussein O. sent them?

Mo and the boys send their best.

Now when does Biden let Mo and the boys kill Bolton and company?

I hear they are next.

Hell, I’d kill him for that money. Just wear a BLM shirt and accuse him of being a cop. Kommie the Ho would bail me out and I could retire to Belize.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

I'm surprised he's lasted this long frankly.

 

[struth]

Wow, while Xiden is busy doing Stalinist tactics to attack political rivals....his pals the Iranians are literally attacking us, in our own border.

Muslim outreach program.

Remember: Cat ‘Peace Train’ Stevens said Rushdie should be killed for his statement about Mohammed the Pedo.

Mods, could you merge this with the thread I already started?

I concur we literally posted at the same time (sorry dude)

Religious zealots are always dangerous, in one way or another.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

I wonder how many times has Rushdie been at a public event such as this, during the time his book has been out?

Watch...the same folks that attempt to paint one guy attacking the FBI with a nail gun as representing all of President Trump's Supporters will do a complete 180 here and vehemently proclaim the acts of one Muslim do not represent all followers if Islam.

Can't have it both ways folks.

When you pull out the broad brush, you gotta to paint everything with it.

Works the other way round too.

On also has to remember the price on his head came from a government, and has been continued by various Non governmental organizations.

You piss off Catholics in the US, all you get is maybe a light reprimand from the local Bishop and Bill Donohue of the Catholic League having a presser in front of your office saying a few mean things.

Apparantly he had little or no security.....what????? with a price on his head?

Why should catholics be pissed at all when JoeXi is debauching genuflectors across the border?

I guess Americans are going to have to get more accustomed to crazed Muslims running on stage at civic events in small town America and trying to stab the speaker to death, just as they’ve gotten accustomed to adding an hour to any commercial flight for intrusive security measures. Diversity is a strength!

Why the f—k is “New Jersey man,” Hadi Matar, in my country?

Fifty year ago, none of Matar’s relatives were within six thousand miles of America. Only a massive government program intentionally designed to dramatically alter the population of America, pursued relentlessly for half a century and funded by U.S. taxpayers, could place the likes of Hadi Matar on the stage of the Chautauqua Institution in Western New York in 2022.
