You know, this means that other countries can assonante people in Iran.

No one deserves to be attacked like this.
I can't read the article due to a paywall but I'm guessing it's related to their critique of Iran?
Reminder that Iran is a country that publicly calls for people to be killed and offers hefty rewards which have directly resulted in attacks like the one against Salman Rushdie (which was also a stabbing). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satanic_Verses_controversy#Fatwa_by_Ayatollah_Khomeini

Stabbed in the leg but stable at the moment. That's good.
