Will be interesting what his defence will be. For the moval of doubt, yes, I do condemn the attack just as I condemn the death of the Japanese translator under mysterious circumstances in 1991 (still unsolved), the Norwegian publisher William Nygaard shot in the back 3 times in 1993, the Italian translator Ettore Capriolo who was beaten and attacked with a knife and In 1993, the Islamic militants who set fire to a hotel in eastern Turkey in a plot to kill author and tranlator of the book Aziz Nesin. The fatwah wasn't just issued against Rushdie but anyone else involved with the book. |
Re: Salman Rushdie is attacked
I suspect his defence will be the fatwah being legitimate licence for him to act, therefore any killing would have been lawful - murder being unlawful killing, rather than killing per se.
