Salman Rushdie 

Indian-born Author of the Satanic Verses. Currently on the run from a fatwah, or death decree, issued in 1989 by the Ayatollah Khomeini, after alegations that the book blasphemes against Islam. His cause is championed by the likes of Bono from U2.

Salman Rushdie gave an interview with Rolling Stone a couple of years ago. I don't know what happened to him since. I think we would've heard if the goons had caught up with him.

Salmon Rushdie

Da infamous India-born author whose literary works were of such "fishy" content dat it "spawned" a firestorm of controversy --- many of his fellow Muslims weren't overly thrilled with his less-than-pious viewpoints.

Salmon Rushdie surely got himself into a major "kettle of fish" when he penned his infamous "Satanic Verses" book --- thanks to a lot of irate supporters of Islam, he felt like he was "up to his gills" in trouble.
