hunt down the Pope for his barbaric statements as you have pursued Salman Rushdie

The headline is misleading. If he wants them to go after the Pope the way they went after Salman Rushdie, then I think he's actually saying ... "leave the Pope alone."

I don't know what makes you think the Muslims are leaving Rushdie alone. He has basically been in hiding for seven years under very tight security. The Fatwa against him was renewed in 2005. He travels with a phalanx of bodyguards and no one knows where he stays or will be next. Publishers and interpreters of his books have been attacked and some killed. The crazed muslims would have killed him if they could, and they have not stopped trying.
