SALMAN RUSHDIE ATTACKED IN NEW YORK FRIDAY MORNING
CHAUTAUQUA, N.Y. (AP) — Salman Rushdie, the author whose writing led to death threats from Iran in the 1980s, was attacked Friday as he was about to give a lecture in western New York.
An Associated Press reporter witnessed a man storm the stage at the Chautauqua Institution and begin punching or stabbing Rushdie as he was being introduced. The 75-year-old author was pushed or fell to the floor, and the man was restrained.
Rushdie was quickly surrounded by a small group of people who held up his legs, presumably to send more blood to his chest.
His condition was not immediately known.
GRA:Probably an illegal(muslim)committing the attack.

I think the doctors are trying to reconnect the thingamajig to the whatchamacallit.He'd better hope his doc in E.R. isn't named Mohammed.

At 6:30 p.m.,cbs reported Rushdie had been stabbed in his neck AND abdomen.They reported he was still in surgery.
ReplyDeleteIf he's been in surgery this long,his odds of surviving without major aftereffects are poor--if he survives.
Who wants to survive if major bodily functions are destroyed?
Not moi.
