An outraged Pakistani lawmaker is demanding that the title "Sir" be bestowed on the world's most wanted terrorist, Usama bin Laden, claiming it's only fair since Queen Elizabeth II has already done the same for the Muslim world's most hated author, Salman Rushdie. "Muslims should confer the 'Sir' title and all other awards on bin Laden and [Taliban leader] Mullah Omar in reply to Britain's shameful decision to knight Rushdie," Sami ul Haq, leader of the pro-Taliban Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, said in a statement. Rushdie, 60, was on the list last Saturday of those to be knighted as part of the queen's annual at birthday honors announcement.

Perhaps if he were a rock star or popular actor there would be no problem.
Nope this outraged Pakistani probably wants a crowd of 50 or 60 men - jumping up and down with guns - and screaming like banshees - - to do the honor.
Firing into the air. Thank the Lord for gravity. Everytime they rampage or celebrate, (how one tell’s the difference I haven’t a clue), they do us all a favor and rid the world of some of their own.
I was thinking the same thing. I say lets call the queen and insist that she move forward with this knighthood immediately. The only rule is that the knighthood cannot be awarded unless Mr. Obama (oops) Usama shows up for the ceremony.
Hey, if Yasser Arab-fat and Jimmy “It’s the Jooos” Carter have Nobel Peace prizes, why not? LOL
Piss off, Sami.
GREAT IDEA!
Knight him.
Use a nice sharp sword, and, you know........
SORTA SLIP-—SIDEWAYS.
Ooops.
