Living as a non-Muslim in a Muslim-majority community, especially as a former Muslim, has been incredibly difficult for me. The pain of rejection is constant, people I once called family and friends now see me as an outsider or worse. It feels like every part of my identity is scrutinized, as if I’m no longer allowed to just exist without judgment, except for my mother. She has been the only person who still sees me for who I am, not just through the lens of my beliefs. It takes an immense amount of perseverance and courage to keep going. Every day feels like a test of my strength, as I navigate a world that often feels hostile to my existence. Holding onto my sense of self in the face of such adversity has been one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. I don’t mean to sound overly bleak, but the reality itself in such community is undeniably harsh. I salute Ayaan Hirsi Ali for her courage in amplifying the voices of millions who have been silenced, inspiring many of us to keep pushing forward despite the odds.
I salute YOU for being true to yourself and challenging the beliefs that were imposed on you (assuming you were born into islam). There are many people like us, stay strong!
You lost your money, you lost nothing You lost your health, you lost something You lost your character, you lost everything including your friends and family. Islam was your character... now you have nothing...
I just admire what a good conversationalist Joe is, never interjects himself, never shifts the focus onto him, listens with genuine attention and curiosity and asks the best questions.
I can't believe this video only has 1,3k views, 51 likes and 13 (now 14) comments. This is one of the best interviews of JRE. Ayaan, thanks for your openness, your journey so far and its future. You are an example for many in different ways, your courage is remarkable, your way of speaking admirable, and your message sounds morally good.
I think the same. It is a great interview, but I think there is one characteristic that many may dislike: and that is that Ayaan speaks very slowly and in a low voice. That can be boring or tiring for certain people.
@@HelenEk7 she didn't have to flee the Netherlands, the guy mentioning this has no idea what he's talking about. She found better opportunities that aligned more with what she wanted/needed to do in the United States. There was no mob chasing her nor were there any threats. She simply moved.
Absolutely, I always watch Joe Rogan and cannot understand why this hasn't come up into my feed. I coincidentally was watching another account of her and this randomly popped up.
It's such a sign of weakness - they won't discuss their perspectives because they can't. It's just weird they abuse others to hold onto their opinions. At least religions advocate belief inspite of others disagreement, not simply muting all disagreement.
@@pagetvido1850the videos say 5 months ago but they are all uploaded recently and fit in the over all order of the podcasts. The views will pick up sooner or later but probably won’t reach the average number of views since not many people know of Ali
This woman went from escaping Kenya to learning English and Dutch language to politics in America and even debating Richard Dawkins about God and so many other things in between and since then. Amazing woman
I haven't watched the video yet, but I thought she escaped from Somalia because she's Somalian and Somalia is an extremist "religion of peace" country.
Yeah....but from somalia then daadab refugee camp hosting Somalis then JKIA airport in Nairobi then western countries after acquiring asylum status but she is originally from Somalia. Somalis use kenya as a transit route to western countries.
UA-cam has to be supressing this episide becuase it's highly critical of Islam. 17k views? This needs 17M views at least. I would love to see Ayaan and Sam Harris back in 2025 talking about the ever increasing threat of Islamic 'culture' and immigration in the west.
1:03 - Here, Ayaan is describing the sheer naivety of a country like the Netherlands, that has no understanding of how war can start and that peace should not be taken for granted. The Netherlands are being too tolerant for the intolerant, coming along with mass islamist migration. As a Dutchie, I have always had enormous admiration for Ayaan and I'm ashamed of the unworldly politicians who didn't value her as they should.
Hindu Rajput women had to self-immolate in fire when their army fell to Muslim invaders. Those women were brave and didn´t want to end up as sex slaves like in the hands of ISIS. If you want to see what really happened, just watch the Bollywood film, "Padmavat"
I've legit typed Aayan Hirsi Ali into the UA-cam search bar on multiple occasions over the last 6 months as I could listen to her all dang day... and this Rogan ep. has never come up until today (1/1/25)... Just FYI.
Growing up in the Netherlands (where she lived at the time) the media convinced everyone this woman was crazy - doing my own research I came to very different conclusions. Great interview!
I used to be angry at my home and Mormon upbringing as I felt rejected and hurt. I now am very grateful for all my experiences as they have made me remember who I am a quantum being of unconditional love and light. We all are.
The thing that stood out to me the most about her story was the contrast between her clan, who told her that if she didn't have them there would be no one left to care for her, and the westerners, exemplified by the social worker at the caravan who helped her. The woman cared about Ayaan because she was a human being. That is what Western civilization means, thanks to our Christian foundation. Every person is made in the image of God, every person has value.
This video really needs to be blasted now!!! There were so many answered questions in this podcast that I believe specifically Americans would gain a lot from. I don’t know how to do it, but, it needs to be reposted.! 😮
This video is not showing up on JRE's catalog of videos on his channel. This is actually unacceptable. How can UA-cam get away with literally blocking people from finding this video on Joe's channel, but somehow it shows up on our recommend feed. Stop the censorship
What a remarkable, courageous, extraordinary woman. She should be a role model for girls and young women everywhere (boys and men, too) on how to make a difference in the world for the better, after having to live through hell. Kudos to Joe for having her as a guest on his podcast.
I’ve really enjoyed listening to Ayaan! Knowing that she’s now a Christian makes me even more excited to follow her journey. I appreciate her balanced approach to tough topics, and I truly believe that her faith in Christ will enhance her influence. I just want her to know that I’m praying for her to have the patience and wisdom of our Lord Jesus.
Wow if you were ever unsure about shadowbanning here is exhibit A. Insane to suggest any JRE podcast would net under 100k views on ANY platform. We already know the big Islamic money machine is suppressing this media.
I read her book Infidel in around 2002 and I can’t believe I never knew about this podcast until today! Regular JRE listener so this interview must have been suppressed. Everyone reading like the video to give the algorithm a nudge!
I can’t believe this poor woman’s story. And as she’s telling it, she is still justifying the men from that culture by explaining that that’s all that they know. It is truly sad that a woman can be given away like property that they have to cover up so much of themselves just to go in public. I think everybody should have to hear this story. They should play for children in middle school just to get perspective on the rest of the world.
This is the most underrated podcast you will here..Ayaan is a saint and everything that comes out of her mouth is common sence..her story is a film that’s not made yet..hats off to Joe who lets her talk and is fascinated by her story and her input..
This lady is incredibly brave. She must be heard and taken seriously by the western world if the western world wants to preserve its identity and its values. She has survived so many barriers and dangers because there is a mission for her to accomplish. Good on you Joe Rogan for brining her on your podcast. It’s a shame that Utbe has tried to hide this podcast.
Is this for real? Ayaan Hirsi Ali's JRE interview...only with 20k views and in six months?! I would've expected that number in the first hour, at worst in less than 5 hrs. But there must be sth wrong. I'm always mesmerized by AHA's interview.
It makes sense why blocked this episode when gov was pushing rhetoric around covid it wanted to control and the themes of the immigrant cohesion issues in the West. Very important and enlightening conversation that is needed to be had but they want to control the narrative.
In the description, it says this episode was posted in 2021, and at the time Joe Rogan was still with Spotify, most of the views were on that platform. So these older episodes don't really get any traction because most of Rogan's followers only keep up with the latest episodes.
I have also found, Ayaan, in my solo travels through the USA, that my hope is rekindled because of the goodness of individuals, who seem to have a patient wisdom that politicians and media noise cannot package in the simplistic formulas or slogans. I have been praying for you ever since I read "Infidel", and encourage you to keep up the good fight, speaking the truth and standing up for women and the disadvantaged.
1:18:30 In the Netherlands there was, actually still is, a fierce debate about the multi ethnic society. This in the context of September 2001, may 6 2002 Pim Fortuyn and later the on November 3th 2004 Theo Van Gogh.
Amazingly insightful interview! Judging by their discussion about the pandemic, it seems to be filmed in 2021. However, it appears to be getting more and more momentum lately and shows how Ayan was ahead of the time! Society needs to protect this woman at all cost...
Incredible interview. Remarkable woman. Gave insight into how women are treated in the developing world, the freedoms women enjoy and take for granted in Western Countries. I had no idea about the clan set up!
Was this video suppressed? Never seen it until now.
Right? Me too! I was sure it was new until I saw the date.
This video is being blocked from showing up on Joe's own youtube channel. If you look for it, let me know if you can find it. This is crazy
This video is garbage and people are reporting it. It will go down again
i was wondering the very same thing
same I thought this was new

Stay strong, please. Lots of blessings to your mother.

This is the most underrated podcast episode in JRE!
Mosab next ? 🤞
Ayaan’s story should be made into a movie. What a courageous spirit she has!
She is a hero! Why is UA-cam shadow banning this interview????
May have been re uploaded? Just a guess
She’s honest
They are probably labeling this anti transgender
Looks like it. Shameful.
This is an old video in joes old studio right after he went exclusively to Spotify. He’s probably only making it available to UA-cam now?

The Borg definitely shelved this episode.

I completely agree!!! I listened to this the first time!!! Unbelievable unreal
Holy shit this just popped up out of nowhere. I'm Dutch and very farmiliar with Ayaan. Gonna watch it all the way
I only discovered her by accident a few days ago. Greetings from Norway
@HelenEk7 she migrated from Somalia to the Netherlands. And she had to flee to the US. That's the reason she is well known by Dutch people.
@@brianbovens3163 What caused here to flee from the Netherlands? Was she in any kind of danger there?

Thank you Joe for bringing her in.

I saw Ayaan in another podcast. She is a breath of fresh air. 😊 I will be sure to listen to this one.

Great interview. Ayaan is a brave intelligent woman. Respect to her for what she does & to you Joe for having her on.
My favorite female hero
👏 👏 👏
This woman is a hero. Her story is amazing.
Keep up the good work, Ayaan! You inspire us and give us hope ❤
This is the first time i see this one in my feed
What a wonderful, intelligent and articulate lady. She is a genuinely brave woman.
This is a fascinating podcast! Thank you for having Aayan on! What an intelligent and brave human 👏May God continue to bless and keep her safe🙏🙏🙏
Great conversation
Why am I just seeing now? I Knew her from political debates in the netherlands. However I was too young to understand.
1:18:30 In the Netherlands there was, actually still is, a fierce debate about the multi ethnic society. This in the context of September 2001, may 6 2002 Pim Fortuyn and later the on November 3th 2004 Theo Van Gogh.
When was it recorded? Was it one of the Spotify podcasts?
Ayaan is very interesting and has a sense of humour
Really a great lady and an amazing story and journey
Her book is really good.
Just wondering... What do we call people who are too old to menstruate, but we used to? Post-menstrual people?
I can understand it to a certain extent Ayaan says a lot of things about women, and Islam that lot's of a particular mind set do not want to hear.
Amazingly insightful interview! Judging by their discussion about the pandemic, it seems to be filmed in 2021. However, it appears to be getting more and more momentum lately and shows how Ayan was ahead of the time! Society needs to protect this woman at all cost...
And goes without saying an admirably brave individual
Let's share this video as much as we can💥
10k views? Huh?
yo are we getting the old episodes back or whats going on here?))
Incredible interview. Remarkable woman. Gave insight into how women are treated in the developing world, the freedoms women enjoy and take for granted in Western Countries. I had no idea about the clan set up!
what?! Only 16K views for somebody the level of Ayaan. No wonder her journey, her voice is being silenced.
How did I miss this ??
I only see every one of the jre podcast- even if I’m not interested- I’d scan it.
That’s weird.
This is a great Interview, but why don't you say when this Was recorded
Its getting closer to 10th January 2025
So youtube is now trying to get their acts right.
Very inspiring!
I am only just able to see this podcast this evening.
And I follow Rogan.
Ironic given the content. Or intentional!
2:15:55 the world situation in a nutshell... thanks for not being afraid of speaking the truth
Absolutely riveting!! And inspiring!!
This is my hero! Respect!
huh? i thought this is a new episode but it’s 6 months old???!!!
I Like to tell you my story

How do I get in touch with jamie ?
She is a hero. More people should listen to her.
Posted six months ago. Said she was 22 in 1992. Looks good for being about 55 years old.
She’s a remarkable woman! I can’t believe how little views this has.
Why did this not come up until now 1-5-25 for me?
This woman is a hero.
What a lady
