I dearly hope Salman Rushdie pulls through.

The fatwa has had other victims too. The translated words of Ayatollah Khomeini:

I inform all zealous Muslims of the world that the author of the book entitled The Satanic Verses — which has been compiled, printed and published in opposition to Islam, the Prophet, and the Qur'an — and all those involved in its publication who were aware of its content, are sentenced to death. I call on all zealous Muslims to execute them quickly, wherever they may be found, so that no one else will dare to insult the Muslim sanctities. God Willing, whoever is killed on this path is a martyr.

Here in Norway, this led to chief of the Satanic verses' publishing house getting shot three times outside his home in 1993. He fortunately pulled through.

I assume there may have been victims in other countries too.
