Ho-wood and the msm has no idea which side to support in this situation. Both sides are their constituents: A movie star on one side, and islam on the other side.

Isn’t Salman Rushdie still in hiding since writing his book, “Satanic Verses” in 1988 since the fatwa for his head still remains in effect?

Any father who would kill his daughter because his ego will not handle her rejecting his religion should be castrated with a butter knife and then skinned alive.

See. I’d make a pretty good muzzy.....

And CAIR is lobbying for Sharia Law here in the US.

So Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness doesn't apply to women!
