On The Map with Avi Lewis: Ayaan Hirsi Ali & Islamophobia

Back


Avi's encounter with controversial author, politician and born-again America-booster, Ayaan Hirsi Ali who says there's no such thing as Islamophobia. Her extraordinary life story often eclipses the powerful role she is playing in the conversation about Islam and terrorism. As she herself said recently, "Right now the media are still lapping it up: a black woman who criticizes Islam."

Islam a religion suitable for very gullable ppl looking to be TOLD to do everything in their lives. I dont care if u will tell me doctors & lawyers are Muslim. Those ppl might be educated in Medicine & Law but they're NOT well-versed in being a living human being.

Islam sucks out the very essence that makes life worth living, it turns ppl into suicidal psychopaths, unquestioning slaves & threat barking dogs lookin for allah to babysit their brain or whatever's left of it by memorizing fatwas.

She is completely unrealistic, she is tryingto suck up to the audience, she is speaking about America as if it is heaven on earth. She seems to keep on forgetting the Iraq war where US army killed more than a million innocent people, she keeps on forgetting Katherina and the huge gap revealed between the rich and the poor in america. She still forgets that the US has a history of warmongering and imperial oppression of other nations. Wake up!! Don't drift away and believe the empty cliches

What a woman. The muslims' worst fear... an intelligent woman

not really intelligent.She is only repeating empty clihes.She Seems itelligent to you because you are biased and you just want to hear things that comply with what you are fed by the media through.She only does it with an idiotic sense of aggressiveness which just awes you.Maybe you should do some of your own research and have your own independent view instead of believing intellecually void minds like hers.She seems to be too flattery to US democracy as if she is sucking up to the audience
