The bigger irony is that Cat Stevens, an entertainer who’s given his public support to the Islamic Supremacist movement AND terrorist movement (he supported the fatwa against Salman Rushdie) DID perform at Live Earth.

“Cat Stevens ... supported the fatwa against Salman Rushdie”
No. He was asked after a public lecture what the penalty for blasphemy was under Islamic law. He never claimed Rushdie had blasphemed Islam.
I take it that if a Christian or Jew were asked a similar question and they quoted Leviticus 24:16, you wouldn’t have your knickers in quite the same knot.
