Robert Spencer has the intellectual details over here. This not being a very intellectual blog, all I've got to share with you is more pictures of burnin' stuff, right beyond the fold!

"Sir" Salman Rushdie: Day Three

Here're the latest photos from the wave of love and joy for Salman Rushdie. I'm still expecting Friday to be the most dramatic set so far, but we're still seeing plenty of good old-fashioned entertainment until then.

Rt: "BRITISH GOVERNMENT TAKE APOLOGY FROM THE ALL MUSLIM[s] OF THE WORLD."


I'm sure the British Embassy would be more than delighted to hear your apologies, good sirs.

"Sir" Salman Rushdie: Day Two

The saga continues...

Pakistan's protesters chant slogans to condemn the British government for awarding a knighthood to Salman Rushdie in Karachi, Pakistan, Tuesday, June 19, 2007. Pakistan's government summoned the British ambassador Tuesday to protest the knighthood awarded to Salman Rushdie, denouncing the author as best known for 'offensive and insulting writings' against Islam.

"HAND OVER RUSHDEI TO PAKISTAN FOR TRAIL IN SHARIAT" (Bad Protest English-to-Regular English translation: "Hand Over Rushdie to Pakistan for Trial in Sharia!")

That's The Religion of Peace for ya, folks. Death is an appropriate punishment for writing a dreadfully boring book.

If this keeps up, I think we might have yet another DAY OF RAGE on our hands, and if it's going to rise to Day of Rage levels, it's bound to happen this Friday. Keep your eyes peeled for some Grade-A entertainment, folks!

Update: Eagle-eyed reader AMDScooter spotted a familiar face in the crowds! How'd I miss that??
