Author Salman Rushdie Stabbed Before Lecture At Chautauqua Institution

Awesome, he was an evil man and allah delivered his justice through an shia which we do not even count as right islam but nevertheless this shows how swift allah is on bringing people to justice after so many years. I'm just glad he didn't die so allah make an example of him , may he dies in pain and suffering and be a symbol for those who want to continue to attack Islam and Muslims
Islamic jihad in usa
The religion of peace ladies and gentlemen
Finally someone has done it after all those years… well done my friend 👏
Allah swt speaks By Allah, We have indeed sent (messengers) to the peoples before you (Muhammad), but Satan has made beautiful for them their (bad) deeds, so that he (Satan) will be their leader this day and they will received a very painful punishment. (Quran a nahl verse 63.64)

He is traitor fo muslims like you lable taliban as terrorist western media always cheats the public by hiding the reality and propagate their propagandas
Completely unrealistic 35 years have passed since the tumult of his book…. America killed him
I wish he is suffering before dead..
This Is what happens when you leave your borders open to anything that wants to walk In.
Brilliant attack. This bloddy bastered rushdi deserve this. we are extremly happy and enjoying.
leftists and their tolerance are responsable for this
Apparently the Biden administration invited this terrorist and was informed of his plan.
Why wasnt this deemed an act of terrorism?
if a person insults Christians he will be hated by all Christians. Similarly if he insults Islam, Hinduism or any other religion, he will be hated by all followers of that religion. salman rushdie was punished for his own actions
Why are the US authorities so upset by this attack ? 🤔
The US has carried out at least two separate assassinations in foreign countries, they have created wars that cost the lives of millions of people and injured many more, ….
Hypocrisy???? 🤬
Islam the worst thing ever happened…
33 years after they issued a fatwa they finally got him.33🤣
Will he be released? That's what they do in New York, isn't it?
This guy's work leads to acts of violence against the people he ridicules. Hitler also wrote a "book" and had "opinions".
Salman Rushdie is a hero
It soluld have been worse
Slman sashdi a mad dog
Peaceful religion huh 🤔
Conqratulation!!! Hopefully his life end asap!!!
It seems a war of words against Islam. Rushdi and his supporters must rethink…..
if you come to my house then you have to abide by my rules … otherwise you have to go back to your own house … here everyone is free to say what they want … if you can't stand that you have to take a plane and go back to where you came from
Congrats to Chautaqua Institution! 33 years Rushdie survived and was protected, then stabbed at their grounds. And they claim that their events are particularly well protected?!
Thank's Hadi Matar…. For showing us the satanic verse is real…. The real islam, "religion of peace 😈"….. good job Hadi… 👍👍
I want to see mehdi Hasan's view on religion of peace
What should we do with speech that is not protected by our favoured justification? The answer depends on balancing the speech act in question against other values.
If the speech is not causing harm we might want to leave it alone. Others might think that harmless but grossly offensive speech should be punished. If speech reveals wartime secrets to the enemy we might want to put the person in prison.
Engaging in hate speech in Europe can quite possibly lead to the same outcome. Libel will incur civil rather than criminal charges. And that in many instances the appropriate punishment for speech is “social disapprobation” rather than legal penalty.
The reason why the argument over free speech has not been put to bed long ago is that people bring different sets of values to the discussion. The debate does not takes place in a vacuum and arguments have to be assessed against social norms, values and institutions. Speech is a social phenomenon because it requires speakers and listeners to engage with one another. The “problem” of free speech does not exist for the person stranded on a deserted island.
Even people with the same values can disagree on the facts of the matter. They might accept the argument that speech can be limited if it causes harm but disagree over whether hate speech, for example, is captured by the harm principle.
The topic quickly becomes devilishly difficult. The one thing I can say with confidence is that it is unlikely a one-size-fits-all principle will help us navigate the treacherous waters of free speech.
The Chautauqua Institution has proven to be the most unsafe place for events. After the incident with the author Salman Rushdie, there is also no willingness to raise the security standards of Chautauqua Institution. Thus, everyone is safest served by avoiding Chautauqua Institution as a venue for an event. One's own safety takes precedence and Chautauqua Institution cannot grant for its own safety.
Islam is a terror based movement disguised as religion ! Just dispacable that a terror movement is regarded as a holy religion !
It doesn't makes sense.
Why now? Why not back in the 80's when there was an ample opportunities.
Smells like the western government wanted to get rid of one their puppets after using them for so long
Blessings everyone GREAT WATCH HERE FOR EVERYONE… "FROM MUSLIM TO ADVENTIST" BY SHABAZ. B. BEAUTIFUL TRUE AMAZING STORY FROM IRAN YOU TUBE ENJOY BEAUTIFUL WATCH… GOD GAVE EVERYONE A FREE WILL ❤️🙏🏾❤️
Where is your poster islamaphobia child – Ilhan Omar. Fear of Islam is real.
And the Darwin of the year award goes out to, well none other than Salman Rushdie. Mr Rushdie what did you honestly expect would happen to you after you wrote that book? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
prayers for a blasphemer is not exhausted… don't waste time to pray for Satan rushdie
one day Satan rushdie will go definitely… Angel is waiting for him to stabb him very well more than MATAR
Islam sometimes is honestly scary to me, lots of it’s followers act too violently and self centered. Islam shows the world it’s dangerous brutality via these people and events.
The MSM suddenly up in arms about free speech. Was this the case when people tried to talk about the supposed pandemic? Don't think so.
And, Muslims say, Islam is a religion of peace. If someone wrote a derogatory book about Jesus, Moses, Budah, Shinto, or other thousand faiths on this earth, no one would have raised an eyebrow, but not the Muslim faith, they have to use force and violence to prove their point. There is so much hate, anger, and absolute one-way thinking in the Muslim faith, I know better because was raised in that culture. There is no freedom of speech or freedom of expression in Islam or in any of the Muslim Countries, all follow the foundation of Islam in Quraan. Attacking this great writer Mr. Salman Rushdie is wrong, they can not silence the truth.
So he was stabbed by a middle eastern Muslim and MSNBC calls the attacker a white Supremacist??? Who still listens to these idiots?
blasphemy catches up to you. Be nice next time please
Allah is Fictional
Prophet Mohd was delusional
Korans Hadiths Suras are comical
M psychos are hysterical
1z1@m is haram and Halal..
Attack on Rushdi is due to his own mischieves.
Hadi Matar should be freed and he should be compensated for his suffering.
I have 3 questions to ask. Is the stabber going to heaven for this? Is he going to wine and dine at the table of God for this? Is he going to get heavenly virgins for this?
Msnbc is fake news and its their channel that makes these ppl so angry because they spread lies about jewish ppl
Now I will read the book. Is that accomplishing the goal of those who demand unquestioning adherance to a belief system?
Been expecting this for lost 30 years
