Re: A knighthood for Salman Rushdie?
Well from what I've seen/heard so far the media have been at it again and exaggerated the ill feeling being expressed on the streets in places like Pakistan. Whilst it was very unwise of the Pakistani politician to make the comments he did, I really don't think he represents the views of most Moslems there or anywhere else.
Cast your mind back to the Shilpa Shetty debacle and you may recall numerous stories of angry mass demonstrations on the street of India. The only footage I saw, however, showed a mob of about 100 protesting.
