Rewatching this after the horrible news the day before yesterday. A man with an incredible breadth of knowledge, who understands the role of a writer in these difficult times and is unafraid in his pursuit of answers to difficult questions. I've loved Salman's work and always will. Praying for his speedy recovery from this horrible incident and hope it doesn't shatter him internally.

When I was a kid growing up in a remote corner of this planet (Bangladesh), I heard people around me chanting slogans to have him beheaded. Now after all those years when i learn that a new book of Salman is going to be published soon, I just cant wait to get a copy. And once I have it I read slowly for I do not want the book to be finished quickly. Much Love and Respect from Bangladesh.

My first book with Salman was ‘The S’ Verses,’ it got so much attention from the backlash. It was due to this that I picked it up. And I have never regretted it. He has faced so much yet he kept on giving and giving. And it was all great works that he has contributed to humanity. There are writers who are average, and then there are those who really contribute. He is a part of the later.

The Satanic Verses is a rather stylish, well-phrased but boring, pithless, superficial, mundane book that brings no real information or interesting hypotheses about the subject the title promises (the dubious verses of the Qur'an, which in Islam has always been a real problem), and which became a best-seller only because of the death fatwa laid upon it. The Iranian government should have prioritized more dangerous persons spiritually, like Ayn Rand who condemns charity, and really wicked and Satanic authors like Attali or Huntingdon who advocate mass murder of old people or world war against countries refusing the NWO : these people explicitly advocating crime as a way of social control should not be allowed to walk in safety throughout the world. Rushdie should not have been attacked but the reading of his works declared a frivolous activity not worthy the waste of time and effort like listening to lounge music or watching TV serials.

2 facts to factor in: 1: The Abrahamic invasions are doing, and have done, their maximum to destroy the culture they invaded. Therefore, give the Sanatan Dharma their full right to defend their culture. After all, Bharat has the ONLY ancient culture and civilization that still survives. 2: Trump is not that megalomaniac as to believe that fake news is only when it's against him. Although you are free to speak as you like, Mr. Rushdie, and I absolutely LOVE the Satanic Verses, plus you are my very favorite writer, but facts are facts. And good research is part of the jurisdiction of a good writer.

I have some Muslim friends from "bohra muslim" community whose ancestors where forcefully converted to Islam. They acknowledge this that their forefathers were humiliated, raped and converted at gunpoint but they are now are afraid to take any steps back because they fear in their community in which they live now could harm them and the 2 generations who have lived in fundamental islamist environment has lost their old identity. Salman Rushdie correctly said this has been happening in the east and now i am seeing the same happening in west as well. My friends just don't want to go back to their home.

Salman certainly hit world news in a way that must have changed his writing forever: he had to hide away for 10 years, many people were killed: he brought a hurricane to this country, the like of which we'd never seen; then he moved on. He'd tweaked the tiger's tail, in a way he never meant to, while describing satirically conditions under mid-Thatcherism as applied to immigration. Was he as innocent as he seems? We'll never know: what with having to live in artificial conditions for so long. But I'm sure we'll give him the benefit of the doubt; after all who else would like to live life on the run. Hope he lives to survive this latest outrage, with all his faculties intact.

Salman Rushdie is one of the greatest novelists of our times - no question about it. However, he seems to have no scope for African-Americans beacause he has always overlooked them in all his inteviews. Needless to say that there can't be any America without the natives and African-Americans. Salman can also sound like an anglo-saxon. In that case he should have the courage to admit the crimes of slavery and colonialism .

Hindu inflexibility or fundamentalism gained ground because the opposite identity was gaining power, it is the mirror image of muslim intolerance and condescending muslim attitude. Hindu supremacist position existed in fractions prior not significant, the anti soviet position of the west meant they needed every alliance to win the big fight, Muslim middle or Muslim progressive was silenced/eroded in the Middle East and central Asia as they were not willing to wage a military war against communism. (Hindu too was not willing to wage war against communism, Hindu could have been conscripted to fight soviet communists, however Indian communists were a significant number, they would have tilted the war in favor of the USSR). Pakistan became aggressive and militant to please the West. Indian Muslim too became radicalized, more due to the rewards than because they were anti Hindu). Nehru kind of seculars were popular in India for a while, they quoted western thinkers more profusely than the rest, Western thinkers were arguing for a rational human world over the divided religious world, superstition in any religion was to be condemned and ridiculed. Indian Hindus welcomed a logical rational world, they felt it was not anti Hindu to welcome a rational view). The huge wars has changed Muslim world view, the non radical Muslim wants religion to be far less important, a position now welcomed in the West too. Rushdie belongs to the middle path Muslims, they want friends, they don't want disrepute or isolation. They understand fanatics can not rule the new world. You (west) now realize you can negotiate with leftists but never with an inflamed religious fanatic. Fanatics don't negotiate.

The writer enjoys a mess we are experiencing now, because it gives him a thought to his writing. What he did not take from his reading of Sci-Fi in his youth is this: Humanity has a narrow window of opportunity and it uses it not efficiently. He fails to see demise of the western civilization threatening survival of human civilization, this is why he sees destruction of men as an attraction, not a problem. Women launching space rockets is a true fantasy and he fails to see tragedy of such beliefs.

I dont think Rushdie enjoyed the suffering he endured for his art. I think he saw it as a necessity. whether or not you think he is a great novelist is a valid argument for any reader of any book. but I dont think he created the conflicts of our time - rather tried to make sense of it. and it is true some men have constitutions for different times and purposes. England decided churchill was a man made for war not for peacetime - when they voted him out. but thank god we had him in a time of war.

The problem with saying that it's OK if men are questioning their gender role, is that these men aren't just middle, or upper-incomed, men who have never had any other challenges, or things to think about, in their lives. Some of these men are working class, low, or no, incomed people and have already been struggling, for decades, under the constant (and seemingly, practically inescapable) constraints of neo-liberal/conservative economic dominance and they simply can't take it anymore. They already feel like they were thrown on the scrap heap; almost 40 years ago, in some cases. They are, quite literally, killing themselves. They feel like there is no other way out and that society is hitting them when they're already down.

He’s a thumping bore. His novels are full of grotesque cartoons where life ought to exist if only he could master his schoolboy instinct to sketch ugliness into every corner of human experience. When a fiction-writer touts the waning of truth he/she is really failing to find a centre that holds.
