In an age of fabricated cancel culture incidents it's important to recognize the real consequences some face for speaking their mind. So glad to hear all is better Mr Rushdie!
Rushdieji, you are fearless. You are dauntless.Your are a true Indian. Your indefatigable spirit pulverised the knife that attacked you.triumph of freedom over fear is the legacy you leave behind.you are indeed the modern day founder of a freedom empire akin to the of Vijayanagar of the bygone era on the deccan plateau.
Brilliant interview! One got to know so much more about Rushdie the man and Rushdie the writer. Wishing Rushdie many more novels in the trombone years!

So glad to see him in such great shape emotionally. Those people upstate New York that didnt provide sufficient security should be ashamed because they function on the premise that it can't happen here we are such a cultured civil society. It can happen anywhere in any religion or culture. Organized religion always talks about our God not yours.
Just started _Victory City_ ...preparatory to a trip to Southern India. Maybe, with the political climate changing in Sweden, they will finally find the courage to award Sir Salman the Nobel Prize for Literature.

I admire this man - the fatwa and the attack on him should never have happened. Have read a few of his books and even though The Satanic Verses or The Midnight Children didn't attract my attention, other of his books did. His talent should not be constrained by foaming-at-the-mouth fanatics.

I have only read Midnight Children, and that was many years ago. I dwell and scrawl from a place as remote and dim as the moon.

I forget, this is not sport or one of our modern things. As usual, I anticipate apathy-- feigned or not, on sighting of my lines-- by literature loving people.

How was this atrocity allowed to happen, bearing in mind he was one of those people who was vulnerable to attacks of that nature?! Also, the fatwa issued by the ayatollahs on his head had not been lifted, had it? Big up, Salman Rushdie.
I don't know. Who wins when we are all heading for the grave. He's a mere blip in 1000s of years of history. He'll be forgotten a few years after he's dead. He barely known now except in the fringes of society. The west has it's own rich history in literature that is covered in schools. His writing doesn't belong anywhere in history expect that he managed to antagonise some extremist muslims. Majority of Muslims have more important things in life then feel salty about a nobody who caught the attention of the west.

SECOND CUT PENN: Good day to you too, gentleman. FRANKLIN: Your entrance is in derogation of the hour We stipulated for this meeting here. If it was but a personal business, Trust me, I will not suffer the least hand on my clock Condone this misdirection of my time. PENN: As the elected tribune of that horde That foisted this unnecessary idleness Upon my clock,-- you should be gracious that I yielded to it; and rather emphasis that Than groan about my clockness in tending it: For be you cognisant of this one fact;-- The frequent yelp of some disgruntled curs Is hardly an event for proper stir From the point of view of a gentler breed. B.FRANKLIN: A shrub That is a denizen at the mountain's brow Is still not taller than the pines at the slope. Aside the ordinary uses of penny, What other furtherance is in the name Penn In Pennsylvania? PENN: This is a most intolerable dissipation Of my quite precious hour; hence while at it, I still prefer a frugal and direct Utility of it, than any further waste, As this derailment from the actual talk For which we greet apparently infers. Now, to the purpose of the meeting,-- and swift. B.FRANKLIN: I will oblige your mood, Since not myself but those I deputize Urge my own humour in this. The people in The populous colony of Pennsylvania Prefer that henceforth your own family Should graciously endeavour and align itself With the will of their popular assembly In matters that pertains to taxation, Since it attunes with the legitimate charter Established by your own predecessor, The founder of the colony. PENN: My father founded it By virtue of a seal from the British Crown; Which doing so, did not expressly or otherwise Confer on him authority to form A charter for the novel colony. It was his personal whim that gave birth to The document; hence brags no legitimacy Beyond the boundary of his individual will. Now that he is no more, so likewise is That gambol of an idle thought from him. B.FRANKLIN: You may consider it how you list; But far beyond your individual view There is popular consensus of opinion In Pennsylvania that regards it as A legal deed; as sacrosanct to them As Moses' ten commandments. Beside this fact, The status of your family in the colony Is quite absurd and extraordinary. It plagiarise on feudal ownership; And being so, blatantly infringes on The current ideal of individual ownership Endorsed by the subsisting colonies. As reason in this matter urge you do;-- You should comply. PENN: Comply? I should oblige their will? those simpletons,-- Who do not prioritise in their decisions; Hence in the hierarchy of likelihood, Are limited,-- consigned to the laughable flat. Oblige their will,-- that in this regard is as, Their rearing the presumption of a castle Upon the folly of a tenement? My family and name possess that much Of Pennsylvania; and shall keep it so,-- Exempt from any levy that denotes Authority beside the Crown and Parliament. B.FRANKLIN: This is the tone of a mere swindler! PENN: Your fame abroad this realm,-- Primarily obtained by your fondling with Electricity,-- is a thing of interest Only to all the idle lettered heads Discovered in it. As you may have mistaken, It does not capture the attention of The actual, foremost names of consequence. Hence if you falsely lean on it in presuming Your own advantage in your dealing with me, You might accost a sort of disappointment You did not contemplate. In this society, The principal arbiters in any issue Are from the owning class, the higher brows;-- A point in peership which your utmost rise Would not dare dream. B.FRANKLIN: You have the privilege, hence chew on. But later you shall find,-- the lion's tail Is a commodity of pride you bite At the expense of further use of your teeth. PENN: By virtue of my blood, I have the badge and license in fellowship With the elite of means in this society; And shall see that eventually you despair In your pursued sinister campaign For squeezing penny from the purse of Penn. Good day! (Exit Penn.)

FIRST CUT THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION Part Two 2:31am 22-5-2023 ACT 1 SCENE 1 CURTAIN. In London, England. In a public guest house. Curtain reveals Benjamin Franklin. B.FRANKLIN: Life is a temporal journey And our days are much like a farer in a cart; Who at the climax of his trip dismounts, And pines the wasting memory of the course As the relinquished vehicle vanish from sight: Yet as if for a nobler aim in view, We race on till that inexorable end. Since I wot how ephemeral these noons, I am diverting my days in engagements That may imprint my name indelibly Within the bright wheel of the orbiting sun. I am dying my hair with urgent deeds That shall prevent them from becoming grey; Hence crown me in undying youthfulness. This vehicle of my conscious seasons I shall eventually relinquish to dust Beneath a tomb;-- hence ere that fated date, I shall extract as much of myself from it With executions that will stand me apart From the corse that is mourned at my funeral. If I account the times I did allot Persuasive utterance to this opinion, I will sum up sufficing flight of days In meditating on it, but in all of them, Such dearth in minutes for a single step In motioning to fruition;-- my dilemma Apprises me of how primal our common fault In plying our existence in this limitary, Yet boundless saddle of conceivable dreams. In the inhabited world, what name of worth, Who gazing at a clear blue sky at noon, Have not envision the fruition of that dream In which he did obtain the tendency-- As naturally eagles do-- and could ascend, Attain the lofty corridor of the clouds And Pierce their foggy forms with pitch and dives; Aye, far beyond that,-- venture to the point Where he could cast his gaze behind his reach In firmament, only to sympathise With the sun, the moon, and some luminaries Whose zeniths his ascension has succumbed? Is this not illustrative of that grandeur Acquired in our midst by that admired name To whom all the reputed plumes of society Regard with awe,-- as if than any, his His an acclaim with such exemption for men, It seems it situates him upon a summit Peculiar to all the ethereal sparks? If I could so dare entertain the dream As frequently I do the coveting of it, Why am I hesitant and waste in wistful thinking If actually I am convinced and hold in faith That as still every man I likewise owe My origin to that miraculous rouse from dust By a spark of divine light in the first man In clothless Eden;-- hence compose divinity And the immeasurable possibility Alloyed to it in this mutable, ruinous frame? In this same vehicle of consciousness, While sometimes in my fit of lethargy I have accommodated a single thought As if a Goliath in my faculty, In others, the harp of David in my head, I have successfully hosted timeless sentiments That shall eternally regale the house of Israel. But now, my sojourn here in London, England, Is likewise an occasion for my telling Amidst society in it. This day I am commissioned with the office of An envoy for the colony of Pennsylvania, And contemplate an urgent meeting with A gentleman-- a so-called name of means,-- Yet serving the role of an overlord Over-- I think-- two-third of Pennsylvania. His status is quite disagreeable And countermands the olden charter In which the waxing colony was founded. For being the pioneer in the colony, This stated family exploits it as A means of minting pennies in their chest; As would, in former times, a feudal lord The aggregate of farms and tenements Made servile to the swelling of his holdings. The clock has struck the hour appointed, And ventured into miles of minutes that tell His lateness for our meeting;-- yet he is not in sight. In dealings, the instance that some fools detect That a particular name of excellence Attends with priority their own commission, Then most they seem quite tempted and flatter themselves And try the limit of his fortitude By interposing instance for apology. The clock now has encircled an hour' race In my observance of this patient stay For his arrival. If it was not a business That answers to to the general, but was private, No crown on earth will I permit devour My priceless minutes so. (Enter Penn.) Sir, you are welcome.
For the Ukrainian panelists, you have to feel a bit shame and seek integrity and courage to know what is actually happening in Ukrine, you sold out most of your country to a few rich man , let your land used for proxy war with the most corrupted government officials. Soon you find out those wanted war they're no longer with you, Poland helped you , but you're arrogant and over confidence. No more weapons to Ukrine, Turkey too soo everyone. RIP Ukrine. I'm genuinely happy that Sulman, survived , it is shame for anyone to attack an elderly man.

We all (well, not all, but quite a few) already knew what a fantastic man Mr Rushdie is. But the interviewer is also a remarkable man. Who is he?
I admire this man - the fatwa and the attack on him should never have happened. Have read a few of his books and even though The Satanic Verses or The Midnight Children didn't attract my attention, other of his books did. His talent should not be constrained by foaming-at-the-mouth fanatics.

THIRD CUT
B.FRANKLIN:
It is the wont of a fool
To take a recommendation and appeal
As instance for a flattery of himself,--
Not the condign redress of the askew.
It is an extraordinary fortitude
When circumstance compels a nightingale
Compose a tune for flattering the ears of
A deafened bat. What may one say in this?
How do men the like to this bear their days,
Without a moment for purse and pertinent query;--
Yet ply on with it with that sense of dignity
Admitted in consummate accomplishment
In harvest of the genuine grapes of life?
A yet unquestioned way of life is as vain
As dainty garment on a sculptured icon.
How may true happiness befriend a heart
That is corrupt and dubious in its ways,--
When it is cognisant that, like a vulture,
Its corpulence derives from feasting on carrion?
He thinks much of his purse than anything
Respecting this life. Our chase and catch of wealth
Can so grossly impair our faculty;
And make a conquerer of gold stride a mound
Yet be convinced it is the pinnacle.
The ecstasy derived from catching wealth
And owning chests of gold, can be imitated
By any rogue that cuts purses in the street,
Else stealthily in alleys of public institutions:--
But the fulfilment that definitely consorts
Inherent affluence,-- an uberty of the mind,--
Is far beyond the duplication of
Uncultured souls. By airy tutelage,
We go through a gradation in understanding;
And wean ourselves of the impurities
That curtail our conformity to culture
And noble principles. But in men the like to this,
It seems the great assimilation of letters
Did not avail in winnowing their faculty
Of the unwanted chaffs of character;
And they have merely passed the desks of school
Without the fundamental passage of
The books of it;-- else did, but only of such
Associated with the folly of deeming letters
The legible scrawls of crowfoot on selected pages.
The ultimate end of man is melioration;
The cultivation of his thinking power
Till he attains that point of knowledge in which
His whole being is resplendent as a star.
But not quite so the pointed aim of these men.
A day in solitude is indolence
If in the stretch of hours accorded it
We did condone an idle fold of arms
And did not ply our strength of faculty
In that assiduous industry entail
In ploughing the field of thought for rhetorics,
Else the engagement of a riddle of chance
For a response in remedy of aught.
But the accepted fashion of this genteel class
Is the unquestioned worship of idleness;--
A fold of arms and snore of faculty,--
A dissipate of time on the altar of leisure,
Which they profess is the the true hallmark of
Refined society. But, for myself,
Assured one day I likewise shall be stiff,--
Unconscious and immaterial to life
As this acquired furniture,-- I breathe each day
In full acknowledge of that with breath
That is as liberating of the human will
As anvil the particular instrument
Intended by the embers in a furnace.
Though purchased by the stealthiest of means,--
Let the kite soar and soar till it obtains
The pinnacle,-- as natural to its kind,
It shall still suffer from inferior complex.
It is a mingle of avarice and ignorance,--
As held for many ages in feudal system.
He shall not practise it on Pennsylvania.
I shall deploy my reputation in this isle
As if an instrument and carve with it
Till I succeed in framing a circumstance
In which when the impending investiture
For the particular colony in which
Comprises likewise Pennsylvania,--
The character for the post shall sure be one
That is approximate to whom I wish,
It seems a replication of myself in the office.
If rather like immortal Jupiter
I could obtain it with a spear of lightning,
Why should I hesitate, knowing by that,
I quell the likely umpire for rivalry
Beyond any dispute and lastingly?
CURTAIN.

I forget, this is not sport or one of our modern things. As usual, I anticipate apathy-- feigned or not, on sighting of my lines-- by literature loving people.

to borrow from a batman movie trailer : when you make yourself more than just a man, you become something else entiirely. Mr Rushdie is not just his brilliant books, he is a living breathing idea of pure courage, faith and enthusiasm about life itself.
A well deserved award.

I'm so sad about what happened to this poor man. He didn't deserve to have his life threatened or to be maimed like he has been.
❤
He is lone wolf 🐺
So glad he survived that Islamist attacker.
The interviewer is a pain to listen to. Salmon Rushdie is, conversely, a pleasure to listen to.
Quite disgusting how many celebrated this attack. So many evil people.
Salmán, not Salmàn.
The interviewer was horrible. Thank you Mr. Rushdie.
Nice interview. Hope to see Shiv khera or Sobers Rodrigues next.
The has the right to write books
How was this atrocity allowed to happen, bearing in mind he was one of those people who was vulnerable to attacks of that nature?! Also, the fatwa issued by the ayatollahs on his head had not been lifted, had it?
Big up, Salman Rushdie.
Salman Rushdie won, muslim lost
I don't know. Who wins when we are all heading for the grave. He's a mere blip in 1000s of years of history. He'll be forgotten a few years after he's dead. He barely known now except in the fringes of society. The west has it's own rich history in literature that is covered in schools. His writing doesn't belong anywhere in history expect that he managed to antagonise some extremist muslims. Majority of Muslims have more important things in life then feel salty about a nobody who caught the attention of the west.

Extremists lost (be it extremist clerics or extremist lay individuals) , Islam is a religion of peace... every bit as much as Christianity is.
@@9UaYXxB
No doubt That Islam is peaceful religion that values others religions and respects people of other religions
If a wretched denies
The Messenger and prophet PBUH
Sent by God who are the most holiest persons in this world or speaks I'll of them
Do you think that he is spreading peace on earth
Such a wretched person who caused the heartache of thousands of millions of muslims
Then Europe shelters such wretched people who commit the insolence of the prophet PBUH
such wretched people who insult the prophets and spread mischief in the land and hurt people's hearts I think the punishment for such people is nothing but Hanging
Even if they escape the judgment of this world they will not be able to escape the punishment of God and their abode will be in Hell
Forever
Forever
Forever

SECOND CUT
PENN:
Good day to you too, gentleman.
FRANKLIN:
Your entrance is in derogation of the hour
We stipulated for this meeting here.
If it was but a personal business,
Trust me, I will not suffer the least hand on my clock
Condone this misdirection of my time.
PENN:
As the elected tribune of that horde
That foisted this unnecessary idleness
Upon my clock,-- you should be gracious that
I yielded to it; and rather emphasis that
Than groan about my clockness in tending it:
For be you cognisant of this one fact;--
The frequent yelp of some disgruntled curs
Is hardly an event for proper stir
From the point of view of a gentler breed.
B.FRANKLIN:
A shrub
That is a denizen at the mountain's brow
Is still not taller than the pines at the slope.
Aside the ordinary uses of penny,
What other furtherance is in the name Penn
In Pennsylvania?
PENN:
This is a most intolerable dissipation
Of my quite precious hour; hence while at it,
I still prefer a frugal and direct
Utility of it, than any further waste,
As this derailment from the actual talk
For which we greet apparently infers.
Now, to the purpose of the meeting,-- and swift.
B.FRANKLIN:
I will oblige your mood,
Since not myself but those I deputize
Urge my own humour in this. The people in
The populous colony of Pennsylvania
Prefer that henceforth your own family
Should graciously endeavour and align itself
With the will of their popular assembly
In matters that pertains to taxation,
Since it attunes with the legitimate charter
Established by your own predecessor,
The founder of the colony.
PENN:
My father founded it
By virtue of a seal from the British Crown;
Which doing so, did not expressly or otherwise
Confer on him authority to form
A charter for the novel colony.
It was his personal whim that gave birth to
The document; hence brags no legitimacy
Beyond the boundary of his individual will.
Now that he is no more, so likewise is
That gambol of an idle thought from him.
B.FRANKLIN:
You may consider it how you list;
But far beyond your individual view
There is popular consensus of opinion
In Pennsylvania that regards it as
A legal deed; as sacrosanct to them
As Moses' ten commandments. Beside this fact,
The status of your family in the colony
Is quite absurd and extraordinary.
It plagiarise on feudal ownership;
And being so, blatantly infringes on
The current ideal of individual ownership
Endorsed by the subsisting colonies.
As reason in this matter urge you do;--
You should comply.
PENN:
Comply?
I should oblige their will? those simpletons,--
Who do not prioritise in their decisions;
Hence in the hierarchy of likelihood,
Are limited,-- consigned to the laughable flat.
Oblige their will,-- that in this regard is as,
Their rearing the presumption of a castle
Upon the folly of a tenement?
My family and name possess that much
Of Pennsylvania; and shall keep it so,--
Exempt from any levy that denotes
Authority beside the Crown and Parliament.
B.FRANKLIN:
This is the tone of a mere swindler!
PENN:
Your fame abroad this realm,--
Primarily obtained by your fondling with
Electricity,-- is a thing of interest
Only to all the idle lettered heads
Discovered in it. As you may have mistaken,
It does not capture the attention of
The actual, foremost names of consequence.
Hence if you falsely lean on it in presuming
Your own advantage in your dealing with me,
You might accost a sort of disappointment
You did not contemplate. In this society,
The principal arbiters in any issue
Are from the owning class, the higher brows;--
A point in peership which your utmost rise
Would not dare dream.
B.FRANKLIN:
You have the privilege, hence chew on.
But later you shall find,-- the lion's tail
Is a commodity of pride you bite
At the expense of further use of your teeth.
PENN:
By virtue of my blood,
I have the badge and license in fellowship
With the elite of means in this society;
And shall see that eventually you despair
In your pursued sinister campaign
For squeezing penny from the purse of Penn.
Good day!
(Exit Penn.)
Shame on those who issued the fatwa against Mr Salman Rushdie. Even God does not approve your evil deeds.

THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION
Part Two
2:31am 22-5-2023
ACT 1 SCENE 1
CURTAIN. In London, England. In a public guest house. Curtain reveals Benjamin Franklin.
B.FRANKLIN:
Life is a temporal journey
And our days are much like a farer in a cart;
Who at the climax of his trip dismounts,
And pines the wasting memory of the course
As the relinquished vehicle vanish from sight:
Yet as if for a nobler aim in view,
We race on till that inexorable end.
Since I wot how ephemeral these noons,
I am diverting my days in engagements
That may imprint my name indelibly
Within the bright wheel of the orbiting sun.
I am dying my hair with urgent deeds
That shall prevent them from becoming grey;
Hence crown me in undying youthfulness.
This vehicle of my conscious seasons
I shall eventually relinquish to dust
Beneath a tomb;-- hence ere that fated date,
I shall extract as much of myself from it
With executions that will stand me apart
From the corse that is mourned at my funeral.
If I account the times I did allot
Persuasive utterance to this opinion,
I will sum up sufficing flight of days
In meditating on it, but in all of them,
Such dearth in minutes for a single step
In motioning to fruition;-- my dilemma
Apprises me of how primal our common fault
In plying our existence in this limitary,
Yet boundless saddle of conceivable dreams.
In the inhabited world, what name of worth,
Who gazing at a clear blue sky at noon,
Have not envision the fruition of that dream
In which he did obtain the tendency--
As naturally eagles do-- and could ascend,
Attain the lofty corridor of the clouds
And Pierce their foggy forms with pitch and dives;
Aye, far beyond that,-- venture to the point
Where he could cast his gaze behind his reach
In firmament, only to sympathise
With the sun, the moon, and some luminaries
Whose zeniths his ascension has succumbed?
Is this not illustrative of that grandeur
Acquired in our midst by that admired name
To whom all the reputed plumes of society
Regard with awe,-- as if than any, his
His an acclaim with such exemption for men,
It seems it situates him upon a summit
Peculiar to all the ethereal sparks?
If I could so dare entertain the dream
As frequently I do the coveting of it,
Why am I hesitant and waste in wistful thinking
If actually I am convinced and hold in faith
That as still every man I likewise owe
My origin to that miraculous rouse from dust
By a spark of divine light in the first man
In clothless Eden;-- hence compose divinity
And the immeasurable possibility
Alloyed to it in this mutable, ruinous frame?
In this same vehicle of consciousness,
While sometimes in my fit of lethargy
I have accommodated a single thought
As if a Goliath in my faculty,
In others, the harp of David in my head,
I have successfully hosted timeless sentiments
That shall eternally regale the house of Israel.
But now, my sojourn here in London, England,
Is likewise an occasion for my telling
Amidst society in it. This day
I am commissioned with the office of
An envoy for the colony of Pennsylvania,
And contemplate an urgent meeting with
A gentleman-- a so-called name of means,--
Yet serving the role of an overlord
Over-- I think-- two-third of Pennsylvania.
His status is quite disagreeable
And countermands the olden charter
In which the waxing colony was founded.
For being the pioneer in the colony,
This stated family exploits it as
A means of minting pennies in their chest;
As would, in former times, a feudal lord
The aggregate of farms and tenements
Made servile to the swelling of his holdings.
The clock has struck the hour appointed,
And ventured into miles of minutes that tell
His lateness for our meeting;-- yet he is not in sight.
In dealings, the instance that some fools detect
That a particular name of excellence
Attends with priority their own commission,
Then most they seem quite tempted and flatter themselves
And try the limit of his fortitude
By interposing instance for apology.
The clock now has encircled an hour' race
In my observance of this patient stay
For his arrival. If it was not a business
That answers to to the general, but was private,
No crown on earth will I permit devour
My priceless minutes so.
(Enter Penn.) Sir, you are welcome.
Exaple of lost life of human.
Did the interviewer say vagina instead of vijayanagara empire ?
For the Ukrainian panelists, you have to feel a bit shame and seek integrity and courage to know what is actually happening in Ukrine, you sold out most of your country to a few rich man , let your land used for proxy war with the most corrupted government officials. Soon you find out those wanted war they're no longer with you, Poland helped you , but you're arrogant and over confidence. No more weapons to Ukrine, Turkey too soo everyone. RIP Ukrine.
I'm genuinely happy that Sulman, survived , it is shame for anyone to attack an elderly man.
He reminds me of one eyed Dajjal.
Mr. Rushdie! You are incredible! I've just picked up your book.
