Still on the run?Reader comment on item: What is Jihad? Submitted by Johnny Coomansingh (United States), Mar 6, 2003 at 13:00 Is Salman Rushie still on the run because of his commentary on the "Satanic Verses?"I am from Trinidad and Tobago and I know of the feeling to have your country under siege because of "Jihad." Check the files: On July 27th, 1990 the twin-island state of Trinidad and Tobago fell under the curse of Jihad when the CID Building was bombed, when the Prime Minister was shot, when Mr. DeVignes was killed, when Port of Spain was looted and burnt down, when we were put under curfew, when our freedoms were curtailled, when we lived in the "Valley of the Shadow of Death!" Yes, hell yes, I remember! And God help those who forgot 09/11/01! I was here in the USA when it happened. We must fight this evil! Does Islam preach or teach Love, Mercy, and Justice as Jesus Christ did? Do they turn the other cheek? NO!
