Deranged fruit loop Jones
Alt-Right madman E. Michael Jones, already famous for a number of crackpot theories, has thrown yet another one on the pile with his "hot take" that Salman Rushdie got stabbed recently purely because he was a Fed who wrote his most famous book "The Satanic Verses" to provoke Muslims into acts of violence so that they would look bad.
Jones expressed this deranged theory in a recent article for the Putin-shill site, the Unz Review, where he claimed Rushdie was part of a Fed plot to upset Muslims so that America could bomb them on behalf of Israel and the International Jewish conspiracy.
In the clearly deranged article, Jones writes about:
So, not some Indian writer guy just trying to pen another novel?
He also claims that Rushdie was a complete unknown before The Satanic Verses hit the book shelves in 1988, despite the fact that Rushdie's 1981 debut novel, Midnight's Children, which also dealt with issues of Indo-Islamic identity, was an international best seller.
Jones also links the 1988 publication of The Satanic Verses with the publication 17 years later of a few cartoons ridiculing the Prophet Mohammed in a Danish newspaper and something similar in a French Satirical magazine 24 years later:
According to fruit-loop Jones, an Indian novel, a Danish newspaper, and a French satire mag, separated by nearly two-and-a-half decades, were the preferred tools used by some sinister US Deep State organisation to provoke a civilisational war between the West and the Islamic World.
No wonder it never happened.
In the clearly deranged article, Jones writes about:
"...the role which Rushdie played as an agent provocateur in a campaign that was designed to provoke violent responses from the Islamic world, which would be then turned around to demonize them."

"The Satanic Verses paved the way for the Danish cartoon crisis which unfolded on September 30, 2005, after the Danish periodical Jyllands-Posten published 12 cartoons ridiculing the prophet Muhammad. Then as now the assault on Islamic sensibilities was justified in the name of 'freedom of thought and speech.' But in the light of subsequent events it became clear that the point of these intentionally reckless and provocative acts was the Islamic reaction, which included protests around the world, 'including violence and riots in some Muslim countries.'"

That this fruit loop is given an iota of attention is indicative of the deranged state of the utterly failed and increasingly embarrassing alt right.
