"yes I read SATANIC VERSES. I read the WHOLE thing. Made my brain hurt. There are some factual things about ISLAM in there but it is there to kinda give someone background on ISLAM if they dont know about it. the rest of it is sillyness."

If Rushdie wrote "The Satanic Verses" today, would he be prosecuted in Old Europe for violating their various hate speech laws (Michel Hollebecq, Orianna Fallaci, etc.)?
Oriana Fallaci....
Have you read her book.... "The Rage and the Pride"
It is really interesting. Amazing. I still cannot believe any Liberal Feminist Socialist Democrat woman could be against the wars in Afghanistan or Iraq.... We gave them so much freedom that they never had before!
One time Oriana Fallaci was supposed to interview some Middle eastern big shot and they tried to get her to take her red fingernail polish off... so as not to offend him!
