Pakistani Islamists chant slogans in front of a burning effigy of Indian born author Salman Rushdie during a protest in Karachi. Muslim radicals have burned an effigy of Queen Elizabeth as Pakistan summoned the British ambassador over Rushdie’s knighthood and Iranian hardliners turned their fury on the monarch.(AFP/Asif Hassan)

If you think this is bad, wait until Friday, the day of prayer, when the mullahs, imams, and sheikhs of the Islamic world will work their special magic on the millions gathered in mosques. It’s gonna be a hell of a Friday.
