Pakistan Condemns Sir

Protest Banner (2007)As expected, Pakistan has condemned the knighting of Salman Rushdie. The protests have begun. According to a translation from Urdu by Reuters news agency, the Pakistani Minister For Religious Affairs, Ejaz-ul-Haq, told parliament, "If someone commits suicide bombing to protect the honour of the Prophet Mohammad, his act is justified." Usual bull. These loonies threaten to "self-detonate when they don't get their own way" (Coxsoft Art, less than 24 hours ago). And the Brit. Establishment, which accuses sensible people of "Islamophobia", didn't see this coming! I'm not sure which group is more out of touch with reality.
