#1 Hirsi is also about to publish a book called "Infidel".

I heard from some folks that she realizes she will never be able to date a muslim again - she was looking forward to doing that in the US. The problem is that even a secular or progressive muslim would be a target of the jihad.

Too bad.

#2 Mhw - I understand Ms. Ali would prefer to date a muslin but one of the best parts of the States is the freedom to date cross cultural or cross religious lines. It may not be easy of course.

A brave, talented woman of her convictions certainly should attract a wide range of brave, talented men as suitors.

#3 Submission Part Two, the follow-up to the controversial short film made by Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Theo van Gogh, will be a feature at least 90 minutes long and a potential nightmare for lawyers.

No, being slaughtered in the street with an Orcish note stabbed into your chest as a warning to artists is a nightmare. Legal complications are an inconvenience.

#4 Mijn Vrijheid (published in English as The Infidel).

I think vrijheid actually translates as freedom.

#5 Yep. "My Freedom", says a Dutch buddy.
