Al Jazeera Readrs Sound off on Salman Rushdie

An always fascinating look at how other parts of the world think about specific issues. This week I have selected the feedback of Al Jazeera readers worldwide on the issue of author and former assignation target Salman Rushdie being selected for knighthood.

Should Britain withdraw an honour given to Salman Rushdie?

Salman Rushdie, the author of a novel considered blasphemous by many Muslims, has been awarded a knighthood. Pakistan's parliament has demanded that the title is withdrawn and an apology issued. Should the British government take back the award?
