Dutch parliamentarian Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a native of Somalia who emigrated to The Netherlands in the early 1990s, is no stranger to controversy among her fellow Muslims. Living in the West, she felt free to publicly criticize Islam's treatment of women.

But that freedom came at a price. In 2004, a short film Ali scripted called Submission was shown on Dutch television. In the film, naked women veiled with see-through shrouds painted with verses of the Quran kneel in prayer, telling their stories as if they are speaking to Allah.

The film's co-writer and director Theo Van Gogh was later stabbed to death by a Muslim radical. A letter pinned to the body with a dagger threatened Ali's life. Since then, she has been under the constant protection of body guards.

The danger hasn't stopped her from remaining outspoken about her beliefs. Ali calls her new collection of essays, The Caged Virgin, an "Emancipation Proclamation" for women and Islam.

  • @idontcarei You are totally correct but there is no need to shout friend :-)

  • adaktusson är en idiot.

    

  • @howardz43

    I was talking about qutb as an individual, before he was imprisoned

  • @ignoranceisbad, You may be making a distinction where essentially there is no valid difference. You say, "when her audience isn't very extreme, she will tone it down, when she's with a less educated and/or extreme audience, she will display more full-blown bigotry." “Extreme” in what way? “Bigotry” toward what? The less educated and/or extreme may easily tend to provoke not only her, but also virtually anyone who is well educated.

  • @ignoranceisbad, Where did the Islamic "utopia' thing, come from then? Obviously some such desire is animating the various rogue groups and their overlapping ideologies.

  • @howardz43

    she's tricky, in that her message is not clear, and honest. Its distinctively different depending on the audience

    when her audience isn't very extreme, she will tone it down, when she's with a less educated and/or extreme audience, she will display more full-blown bigotry

  • @howardz43

    he wanted to prevent " selfish individualism " by using Islam as a moral framework,

    This goal is distinctively different then aiming for a purely Islamic " utopia " if you will

    Its not hard for anyone, Muslim or otherwise to draw some moral identification with Qutib, of course there's some truth to what he saying, things aren't always in black and white

  • The double-bind Norway's socialism is now in, is that it cannot give its Muslim immigrants that have been pouring in the civil right to rape and live on the welfare that they want, without their socialist state collapsing. How pathetic! If the left did not have shit-for-brains, the Norwegians who used to be proud Vikings would throw the freeloaders out. All the Norwegian’s situation now is showing is that human nature is not basically good.

  • lol a muslim cut the fingers off his wife so she couldnt get an education. euro countries are there own sovereign nations and they are watering them down with 3rd world people its and upgrade for the 3rd worlders and a downgrade for the euros. they call for a new slave race is being preached by the bigots and false prophets of the world! They shouldnt keep importing rape and murder and should take back there countries and kick out the foreigners WAKE THE FUCK UP EUROPE!

  • @ignoranceisbad, I've been wondering what to you is "tricky" about what Ayaan Hirsi Ali says in this video? What did she say that has gotten you to think she is trying to pull a trick?
