Interesting to note that Fadl went to Teresa Wanatabe ( CAIR and MPAC's go to propagandist ) to tell his sad tale. Very possibly the bullet, if there was one, was a random criminal act, which further unhinged Fadl's delusional mind. The imagined fatwa by a shady Iranian shows that he is a Rushdie wannabe as well.

Another theory is that he wants to sell his books and tapes, the adverts for which claim he is the 'most important and influential Islamic thinker in the US', and is laying on the death threat schtick , by pretending his ideas are so influential that people think him dangerous.

Then again, he could just be desperate for attention.

Khaled Abou Who?
