Salman Rushdie stabbed in New York. - Just in.

Interesting twist to that fatwa is that Khomeini withdrew or rescinded it approximately 10 years after the original decree. He said it was no longer necessary and not in effect, which somewhat makes this criminal act

I would say that shoving your knife into someone's throat , makes it " somewhat" a criminal act . ..

You do know what he said, right?

“which somewhat makes this criminal act that much more interesting in the sense if this guy did it out of his own volition or.....?”

Just to be clear - this applies for all religions and all religious bigots.

Freedom of speech is one thing but no one has the right to insult anyone's religion or family.

Not ok to insult anyone. But even more not OK is to stab someone.

Sammy, shame on you, buddy. Why didn't you quote my entire statement and only quote up to the word "act"? You realize by doing so, you put it completely out of context, right?

Here's the FULL quote:

He said it was no longer necessary and not in effect, which somewhat makes this criminal act that much more interesting in the sense if this guy did it out of his own volition or.....?

Nice try, though. I thought you were smarter than that?

Fatwa no fatwa , same criminal act.

Then take that person to court, protest, boycott etc., I don't think anyone has the right to kill/murder anyone for that. If you start killing people because of that, maybe your blind faith is responsible.

Protect it better next time. You angry we stole your sh*t? Do something about it? That's right you can't do anything about it

I totally don’t care if you got nukes or where you got them from. You’ll never use them anyway (since your arch enemy India has them too, using them means mutual destruction, which is in no-one’s interest)

Yes, but don't stress it by falsifying my quotes, please. That's quite disingenuous especially the way I wrote it couldn't be clearer that it's a criminal act. And to accuse someone of supporting a criminal act when he doesn't is abhorrent, to say the least. Apology accepted.

Worry about your own farmers first these days, or u will have hunger/famine……your own police/govt fighting your own farmers in holland……

That crap aint gonna be funny come next winter

Well, I for instance support our farmers. And more and more people realize how stupid our government is in regard to this non existent problem they created. So in the end, the farmers will come out victorious.

If it is accepted than that is what is important,.

Islamophobia is a criminal act because it leads to killing Muslims for their religion including their children.

Islamophobia leads to discrimination against Muslims.

Islamophobia equals fascism and should be treated like terrorism.

Im being a conspiracy theorist here, but I have a gut feeling this was done to derail any potential deal that may be signed by August 15th, by IRGC Intelligence. They don't want this nuclear deal.

Yes, their is plenty of opposition against this deal in the IRGC. Who feel that signing this JCPOA will lead to the downfall of the system.

This is a competition between people in Iran who want to pursue wealth, and other who want to pursue ideological expansion. If their is actually a direct link with this guy and the IRGC, it is practically a certainty that this attack was an attempt to de-rail a deal, timing is way too coincidental, by making it impossible for the Biden admin to sign anything with Iran.

Just 2 days ago, the EU had given Iran assurances that it will drop existing IAEA probes into past Iranian nuclear activity if it signs a deal, and Iran has up to August 15th to decide it. Otherwise the deal is dead.

Could be a false flag. But apparently there are people on both sides that want the Iran deal to fail. Either way, like I said, it doesn’t make Iran look good. If it wasn’t the Iranians, then for their sake, they better hope this guy acted on his own and was self-indoctrinated.

This suggestion is supposing that there's a rift between the IRGC and the current revolutionary ("conservative") Iranian administration led by Ebrahim Raisi. Which however is definitely not the case. So speculations of this kind can safely be laid to rest.

Secondly, I must reiterate that when it comes to the JCPOA, nothing was ever signed in the sense of a proper international agreement. The JCPOA is not a regular accord as per the Vienna Convention on the law of treaties. It's a political statement of intention and as such, it is considered non-binding in international law. The only thing that makes the JCPOA's stipulations binding, is the subsequent UN Security Council resolution which endorses it.

Please substitue a more adequate term for signing when it comes to the JCPOA, because it was never signed and never will be.

We already have an ugly image world wide, thanks for adding to the ugliness. Our own people will perceive such acts as a cop-out, instead of answering his criticism / insults with civility we just butcher him. Acts like this produce mulhids. And don't blasphemy laws apply only in the Muslim lands won't this put Western Muslims in danger?
