Salman Rushdie to be knighted

Link

Salman Rushdie is to be given the honor of being knighted. He authored the book The Satanic Verses and has been under a Muslim Fatwa that called for Muslims to kill him because the book insulted Islam.

A lot of things seem to insult Islam as far as Muslims are concerned. You can't criticise Mohammed who acknowledged that he was just a man and prophet. But its perfectly fine for Islam to consider Jesus, who proclaimed himself the Son of God and God, as simply a prophet. So its not alright for Christians and others to question the Islamic prophet but its perfectly acceptable for Islam to show no respect to Christianity's God.

Its a nice double standard.

And its also nice seeing the peaceful Muslims chanting for the death of Rushdie and death of the Queen. Islam is a religion of Peace after all. Muslims say it is or else.
