The entire article is much longer than the portions I quoted in a previous note, but those who are interested can find it (as I noted in my previous note) at http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=18230 The much abused and mistreated Hirsi Ali describes criticism she has received for her feminist and liberal views. Many in Holland are frightened of Islamic backlash. She needs bodyguards to protect her. She is an advocate of free speech, Human Rights, and Feminist Rights. She is of course cursed by the Islamic activists in Holland, but also by a variety of people who ought to be more sympathetic to her views. It is Hirsi Ali who most poignantly describes the lack of difference between Islam an Islamism that is rather inarticulately abused below.
