#1 But if her fervour is her strength, it is also her weakness, alienating the very liberals she should court.

*snicker*

Look how the reporter tries to latch onto her star, as if by slapping "I'm a liberal" on his lapel - he has actually done anything in his lifetime that has improved the liberty of others as Ali has done.

He admits he's a coward, terrified of being called a racist to the point of allowing Muslim women to live in submission and then tries to make it all ok by pretending that if he and others like him actually had a backbone and used it, that those same "underclass" working people, that he so readily dismisses with a bigoted wave of his pen, would riot like animals.

This is such a wormy article. The whole point of it is for the author to excuse his own pathetic being by telling us, "yes, I'm a gutless coward - but I'm better than the "underclass" who would terrorize the Muslims if I didn't protect them....because I've got "liberal" on my lapel.

At least you gotta give the writer credit - he briefly looked in the mirror before he pointed the finger elsewhere and told us that at least he was better than that dirty ol' conservative "underlass".

#3 When she was forced to leave her flat, she reflected: My neighbours confirm the critical view that very few Dutch were brave enough to stand up to the Nazis. True, perhaps, but not a way to win friends.

So being "nice" to "win friends" is a higher moral value than opposing tyranny?

Still, if Europe is no longer big enough for Ali, we are all in trouble.

No shit, Sherlock; you are in deep, DEEP trouble. You have reached the point where tolerance becomes a terminal condition: instead of opposing Islam's violent, xenophobic intolerance, you shout down those who call attention to it.

Bye bye, Europe...
