Wow, Ayaan Hirsi Ali sure has aot of negative things to say about Islam. This lady needs an army of bodyguards.

They already stabbed her name into Van Goh's chest & left her a love note on the knife. Those wacky peace lovers!

What would I do? Were it my daughter, I'd have no qualms about paying that man a visit, .45 in hand. I can't imagine that anyone with a daughter would feel differently.

The USA? I'd like to see us avoid doing business with countries that pass human rights violations off as "culture". Sadly, they have the oil, so we're currently over a barrel.

man, you are quick, mule.

I was adding

personally I think supporting people like Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a first step


and then thought better of pointing the ruler back at Matt and so deleted the post.

Don't ever point a loaded ruler at someone.

Steve, I do see your point, but surely you also see mine. The fact that things like this are legal and accepted in Islamic society is an insight into the "morals" of the culture.

yep, no issue there Matt.


This has been going on for centuries and has not changed, nor will it by force or some sort of US sanctions.

Like soviet style communism, it will fall of its own accord as more of them experience the freedoms we take for granted.

Steve, that's what I hope for as well. The Islamic family across the street from me has a teenage daughter that dresses and acts like any American teen. Their teenage son annoys me with his pimped out Sunfire, complete with fart can and subwoofers. Despite the "Praise Allah" sticker on the back of their van, they're more or less like any other American family. Now if they'd just paint their house and mow their damn yard.

Compared to Sharia Islam, maybe American Islam is Islam-Lite?

The dramatic moment a 15-year-old Iraqi suicide bomber gave herself up

By Daily Mail Reporter

Tears streaming down her face, she is confronted by police - a teenage girl apparently planning to blow herself up in front of an Iraqi school.

The officers handcuffed her to a metal balustrade before moving in with extreme caution to uncover a vest full of explosives hidden under her colourful robe.

The dramatic scenes were captured on a video shot by the police.

Handcuffed: Police said the girl's father had already blown himself up. Officers have also arrested her mother and sister


The girl - thought to be around 15 years old - later said that she was given the bomb and told to wait outside the school for further instructions.

In the footage, she denies trying to stage a suicide attack, and appears dazed, even drugged. She gave her first name as Rania and said she was born in 1993.

Her exchange with the police offered a rare glimpse at a teenager allegedly recruited by insurgents.

However, it was not clear to what extent her answers were given out of fear - of the police, or even of her own family.
