On the subject of Eric zemmour, why is it so extreme to say that if people come here, uninvited, and then expect the indigenous population to change to accommodate them, including adopting ideas and ideals that are frankly less evolved than the ones they have themselves, then that is unacceptable. Japanese people have Japan, Indian people have India, Nigerian people have Nigeria, but western European people are being denied their own lands and customs. That's not extreme, as most people want their homes to be as they would chose. House guests, invited or not, eventually make most people feel less comfortable than is ideal.

I think the use of Nigeria was a bad idea. Most Nigerians don’t identify that strongly with Nigeria, they have various ethnic identities that supersede the national one. Nigeria is, in fact, a colonial construct created by The British. So a bad example tbh. And I wonder whether you feel as strongly about people having their own homelands when it comes to those who were colonised by Western Europeans? For example, do you believe that the Dutch should leave South Africa? Should the America’s begin back to the natives? Should Australia and New Zealand by vacated by the English? I’d be interested to hear your answer.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a hero. Her courageous insights are very much needed in this day and age. Too bad so many refuse to listen because it is unpopular - and dangerous - to talk about these issues in our current state of affairs, engulfed by the insanity that has corrupted much of the political discourse. My gratitude and respect for this woman are boundless.
No its because she's really offensive to everyone that's Muslim and frankly she deserves it and I'm glad Just because she's had a bad childhood doesn't mean everyone's life is like that and it certainly doesn't mean that she now gets to talk down to everyone that's Muslim, in front of the camera no less, trying to make everyone that's Muslim appear like a horrible person. It's really disgusting and it does nothing except feed into the latent Islamophobia of people. You can't listen to it for long. It's REALLY toxic
People that listen to idiots like her constantly live "under the fear of Islam" like a muppet because they perpetuate that in their own heads. Meanwhile completely ignoring the fact that there's plenty of evil people in the world. All that sort of behaviour achieves is, making them resent anyone out in public that's Muslim every time they see them. Giving them all sorts of negative thoughts about them. That's disgusting and it's toxic to societal cohesion.
So yeah, she IS really toxic and Douglas as an intelligent person really needs to get over his own Islamophobia as well. Not even Richard Dawkins is as bad as him The difference with him is, he only gets hysterical when exposed to he influence of people like her. Most of the time he's fine and he's intelligent and he talks sense. Sometimes though his conversations can really just downgrade to toxicity and it's pathetic. Get over it Douglas and learn how to be a decent person. You have no chance continuing like this and you know it's more toxic to you than anyone. At some point you really need to put that pride away.

Was born in India and baptised as a Catholic , convent boarding school and lived in the UK for four decades and lived in various parts of the world including the Middle East and am glad to be in the UK and no longer religious. All the Immigrants be it first second or third generation need to ask themselves why they chose and still to this day choose to immigrate to the West if their cultures and religions are their priority. Stay where you are comfortable in every sense of the word. Do not immigrate Stay where you are.
It's very simple. They are paving the road for the Islamic take over of the world. Everything is going according to plan with the help of the gullible useful idiots of the west. It's as easy as a Sunday stroll in the park. I feel bad for the next generations.
I too was born to a RC family in Sri Lanka RC boarding school and my family emigrated to Canada. They all went back home, some to the U.S. You are right! never emigrate from your beautiful birth country thinking the White man is kind hearted and generous.; especially if one is Christian.What a joke!
I think religion can be quite valuable for the individual and the civilization, but fundamentalism is the source of many ills. I have been an atheist for over a decade. These days, however, through my observations, I am beginning to think that some religion is better than no religion.
As always, Ayaan talks perfect sense. She is one of only a very few people capable of doing so. Sadly, and as always, she will be ignored and vilified by the left and the Woke. (I know 'liberals' in the Netherlands who detest her). The fact is that all those in charge of the West have lone since ceased to believe in the ideas and values of the West. This applies particularly to those who run our education systems, and most of the media. The results are catastrophic and getting worse.
You have to know that she made a career with invented story of her life, and left The Netherlands to USA when her lies were exposed by some investigative journalists. She was never forced to marry, she was not circumsided, she is just very good in manipulating people. She ran away when one not left but rightwing politician required from the government to take away her Dutch nationality. She is very skilled to say elegantly what some people want to hear. Now she works for some notorious right wing think-tank and I see, widening her repertoire.
*_Less well known is the paradox of tolerance: Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. - In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant. We should claim that any movement preaching intolerance places itself outside the law, and we should consider incitement to intolerance and persecution as criminal, in the same way as we should consider incitement to murder, or to kidnapping, or to the revival of the slave trade, as criminal._* ~ Karl Popper, 1945 I have gotten far more likes with this quote from Karl Popper than any other quote I have ever posted.

The same has happened here in the UK. Politicians, (most) media, police, local government, refuse to discuss Islamofascism, (which is exactly what it is, fascism as a 'religion'). When member of parliament Sir David Ames was murdered by a Koranic knifeman, the BBC just didn't want to talk about the teachings of Islam, it concentrated on 'on-line hate towards MP's and other public figures, completely side-stepping the real reasons. British authorities have closed down debate on Islam, meanwhile, people are being raped and murdered.

A great, great lady. This is a lady that young people can and should look up to. Totally unlike the celebrity half-wits we seem to be surrounded by these days.
Watching this in March 2024, as pro-HAMAS protests swamp London streets and young wokeists are joining dawa-ists without even knowing which river and which sea are referred to in their chant, it seems to me it’s time for an update to this particular discussion. In the nicest possible terms, she told us so.
What a clear, refreshing realuty based perspective. How to stop this? How about enforcing the law and using the prison and deportation system. Law abiding people will have nothing to fear. Why fog criminality with a pretence of dark, irrational belief systems?
Because "bigotry of low expectations". The woke zealots feel sorry for all minorities and don't dare put any demands on them because they're "victim". Similarly to children, if they're pandered and given things for free, they become entitled and empovered in their delusions. Same goes for all people. To fix a problem you first have to identify it. And and a big part of the problem is Islam and the culture that's imported with it. To delude people into thinking otherwise is disingenuous at best, and people are dying as a consequence.
Most people you see as anti-woke are not against the things the woke believe....they are against the way they are being implemented. They are against Critical Race Theory but not pro-racism. They are pro-womens rights but don't believe in the "wage gap"....They are not against transpeople but don't agree with kids being given puberty blockers. I find the whole woke movement as very conceited and classist.....and ignorant. They think they are the only good ones. It's like a religion. I'm glad you've looked outside the box.
Usually people who agree with wokeness is because they have not gone deep into the subject.It seems to be a very good path, but if you really thought about it , you would realize it is not a good road to go .

"We have this problem, we need to address it." That is in itself insufficient. The problem of violence will not go away. Violence in Islam got baked into the religion at its inception.
@@GEZZMOND Look at the Quran itself, and read about Muhammad and what he did.

True, while Christians were dying in Roman Empire coliseums, accepting to just be martyrs with the promise of eternal life, until The Templar Crusader period changed it all. God's salvation. A quick explained difference.
@@anaibarangan4908 There is a great deal of hypocrisy among Westerners who use the Crusades as a case against the Church. Those same people, when given a choice to live under Islam or Christianity, would pick Christianity in an instant. Rightfully so.The Islamic world is a grand mess, has been for more than a thousand years, because it lacks basic rights that allow cultures to evolve, chief among them freedom of speech. That said, many people will disagree with my statement, and it's safe to assume every single one of those people never left the comforts of the West. They have no actual life experience to back up their hollow convictions. Go live in the East and you'll see what I mean. Until then, you don't know what you're talking about. The violent spread of Islam across multiple continents was not lost upon the northern Europeans of the Medieval period. They'd seen the Byzantine Empire fall under Ottoman invasions, which went all the way up to the Iberian Peninsula. Muslims did not absorb any of these places peacefully. The Muslim takeover of the Holy Land was but one more blow, albeit the most crucial one. Knights rushing off to route the Ottomans was right and just. To defend the Ottomans is to defend an altogether totalitarian invasive culture.
Divided nations, which is what wokeness, multiculturalism, uncontained immigration and accepting of unlimited refugees (or non-refugees) and infighting amongst politicians are doing, is a gift to the ideologies of fundamentalist and radical islamists.
The bombers of the airport in Belgium walked around being helped in the Molenbeek city quadrant, an Islamic colonised area in Belgium for a long time before authorities caught on.
I agree with her. When people come here they are welcome but need to accept our culture as it is and not want to change it. If they do not like it or want to bring concepts not acceptable to our culture then maybe it is time to say you are no longer welcome and should look for somewhere more suited.
Always brilliant. Many of us have lived in secular west (specifically California for me) and found it to be a spiritual and moral desert! I now live among a group of strict Amish and looking outward from within them I see an America crumbling due not to differences in politics or policy but to profound lack of spiritual and moral backbone. We don’t need the law to enforce right behavior. We need a transcendent guide and the moral fiber to follow it.
What a sanctimonious and limited attitude. The Amish have just the same misogynist doctrine that Ayaan has spent her life campaigning against. The truth is that the world is run by psychopaths...and that includes any religion with any power. Until we do something about every position of power being filled by someone who covets power and has no functioning empathy, we are lost. What you mean by spirituality simply helps to enforce this status quo. Basic psychology is far more helpful than any spiritual teaching.
@@LusciousTwinkle name calling will not make the desert of moral spineless ness go away. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That’s a moral precepts that proceeds from a spiritual belief. The psychopaths you think are the power hungry are merely humans doing what animals without a moral conscience do BY nature. Religion civilized us. The best religions made us the best humans. This is a deep principle the Plain people I live among know. As a result they act in ways that are extraordinary good. I did not find that anywhere in secular society. And I have expressed my thoughts here now without calling you any complicated and derogatory psychological names. Indeed, I thought Ayaan brilliant in her analysis of how a socially deficient culture can breed an extreme reaction and fall prey to the worst of religious teachings.
@@Barbaralee1205 Sorry but we were still hang,draw and quartering when religion was in power. The rejection of religion ie the Enlightenment is what brought about civilization as we know it.

It's funny, I've had a friend who worked for GCHQ and a teacher who worked in military intelligence and they both on separate occasions have told me the same thing, which was that the general public have no idea how close they come to seeing major terrorist attacks almost every day, and the reason the general public don't know that is that so many are very narrowly avoided EVERY DAY that most of us would never sleep, eat or even leave the house if we did
After what happened last October, I started to think, it's only a matter of time before we see the mother of all terror attacks here. I now live less than a 10 min walk from the office. Still I don't feel safe, but I can't stay in doors. I live in London. I also go into Central London once a week. Every time I get on a bus or train I am looking at the people around me.

As someone who has lived in the Netherland, I have followed Ayan for many years. She is a true hero. The killing of David Ames was forgotten after a couple of days. The same will happen with the next Islamist killing, and the next, and the next. The politicians of all parties, across the West, have decided that we must gradually submit to Islam, and there is nothing you can do about it. This has been obvious for many years.
China seems to be the only one standing firm. Personally I think it has the might to challenge Islam. I did believe once the oil ran out the world would collectively destroy suadi. But it's sent it's footsoldiers to every corner and now I think only China is the beacon
Until that certain moment arrives when we do something about it. It will come. Islam will be unveiled and exposed and we will see it annihilated and become nothing more than a museum piece.
This is the same as with China. The politicans were wrong about China becoming more liberal as they get richer. They are also wrong about such different communities adopting if they stay here long enough.

In Germany last week a " refugee" of muslim faith just rampaged a train with a knife killing a couple just a few weeks married and wounding many more. But not for the great courage of some passengers who overwhelmed and disarmed him it could have been much worse .. These kind of incidents just keep happening , I live in N Neuköln Berlin I have often been told when asking for respect in our communal Hof that German law does not apply in this yard fronted by Arabic businesses and threatened should the police come ,, They claim an Arab muslim colony the laws of the land not applicable.. My experience confirms all the warnings of Ayaan .. " Your laws not ours " is commonly heard ..
Netflix should make a mini series of her life , read her books and her life is almost unbelievable, her story needs to be brought to the attention of the world , she is amazing

I see Ayaan Hirsi Ali...I click... I'm from East Africa and I know that what she says is absolutely spot on!
On the subject of Eric zemmour, why is it so extreme to say that if people come here, uninvited, and then expect the indigenous population to change to accommodate them, including adopting ideas and ideals that are frankly less evolved than the ones they have themselves, then that is unacceptable. Japanese people have Japan, Indian people have India, Nigerian people have Nigeria, but western European people are being denied their own lands and customs. That's not extreme, as most people want their homes to be as they would chose. House guests, invited or not, eventually make most people feel less comfortable than is ideal.
shiver metimbers, with that in mind, please explain COLONIZATION by Western and Asian countries in the past? Do you think that KARMA has a hand in all this disruption

@@SA_SovereigntyForPatriots whataboutism isn’t an argument. Take your woke bullsh*t, and ‘decolonize’ your own mind. Countries have an inherent right to set immigration policy. Melting pot > multiculturalism
Europe and USA have colonised many countries especially war crimes committed in Iraq, Afghanistan.
I think the use of Nigeria was a bad idea. Most Nigerians don’t identify that strongly with Nigeria, they have various ethnic identities that supersede the national one. Nigeria is, in fact, a colonial construct created by The British. So a bad example tbh.
And I wonder whether you feel as strongly about people having their own homelands when it comes to those who were colonised by Western Europeans? For example, do you believe that the Dutch should leave South Africa? Should the America’s begin back to the natives? Should Australia and New Zealand by vacated by the English? I’d be interested to hear your answer.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a hero. Her courageous insights are very much needed in this day and age. Too bad so many refuse to listen because it is unpopular - and dangerous - to talk about these issues in our current state of affairs, engulfed by the insanity that has corrupted much of the political discourse. My gratitude and respect for this woman are boundless.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali has to travel with security wherever she goes. Why?
Islam; that's why.
No its because she's really offensive to everyone that's Muslim and frankly she deserves it and I'm glad
Just because she's had a bad childhood doesn't mean everyone's life is like that and it certainly doesn't mean that she now gets to talk down to everyone that's Muslim, in front of the camera no less, trying to make everyone that's Muslim appear like a horrible person. It's really disgusting and it does nothing except feed into the latent Islamophobia of people. You can't listen to it for long. It's REALLY toxic
People that listen to idiots like her constantly live "under the fear of Islam" like a muppet because they perpetuate that in their own heads. Meanwhile completely ignoring the fact that there's plenty of evil people in the world.
All that sort of behaviour achieves is, making them resent anyone out in public that's Muslim every time they see them. Giving them all sorts of negative thoughts about them. That's disgusting and it's toxic to societal cohesion.
So yeah, she IS really toxic and Douglas as an intelligent person really needs to get over his own Islamophobia as well. Not even Richard Dawkins is as bad as him
The difference with him is, he only gets hysterical when exposed to he influence of people like her. Most of the time he's fine and he's intelligent and he talks sense. Sometimes though his conversations can really just downgrade to toxicity and it's pathetic.
Get over it Douglas and learn how to be a decent person. You have no chance continuing like this and you know it's more toxic to you than anyone. At some point you really need to put that pride away.
@@marioluigi9599 she's quite obviously not an idiot. It's an easy lazy argument just to assume someone you disagree with is an idiot. She's an articulate intelligent woman from an Islamic background with an Islamic family.

Was born in India and baptised as a Catholic , convent boarding school and lived in the UK for four decades and lived in various parts of the world including the Middle East and am glad to be in the UK and no longer religious. All the Immigrants be it first second or third generation need to ask themselves why they chose and still to this day choose to immigrate to the West if their cultures and religions are their priority. Stay where you are comfortable in every sense of the word. Do not immigrate Stay where you are.
It's very simple. They are paving the road for the Islamic take over of the world. Everything is going according to plan with the help of the gullible useful idiots of the west.
It's as easy as a Sunday stroll in the park. I feel bad for the next generations.
I too was born to a RC family in Sri Lanka RC boarding school and my family emigrated to Canada. They all went back home, some to the U.S.

I think religion can be quite valuable for the individual and the civilization, but fundamentalism is the source of many ills.
I have been an atheist for over a decade. These days, however, through my observations, I am beginning to think that some religion is better than no religion.

As always, Ayaan talks perfect sense. She is one of only a very few people capable of doing so. Sadly, and as always, she will be ignored and vilified by the left and the Woke. (I know 'liberals' in the Netherlands who detest her). The fact is that all those in charge of the West have lone since ceased to believe in the ideas and values of the West. This applies particularly to those who run our education systems, and most of the media. The results are catastrophic and getting worse.
You have to know that she made a career with invented story of her life, and left The Netherlands to USA when her lies were exposed by some investigative journalists.
She was never forced to marry, she was not circumsided, she is just very good in manipulating people. She ran away when one not left but rightwing politician required from the government to take away her Dutch nationality.
She is very skilled to say elegantly what some people want to hear.
Now she works for some notorious right wing think-tank and I see, widening her repertoire.
*_Less well known is the paradox of tolerance: Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. - In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant. We should claim that any movement preaching intolerance places itself outside the law, and we should consider incitement to intolerance and persecution as criminal, in the same way as we should consider incitement to murder, or to kidnapping, or to the revival of the slave trade, as criminal._*

The same has happened here in the UK. Politicians, (most) media, police, local government, refuse to discuss Islamofascism, (which is exactly what it is, fascism as a 'religion').
When member of parliament Sir David Ames was murdered by a Koranic knifeman, the BBC just didn't want to talk about the teachings of Islam, it concentrated on 'on-line hate towards MP's and other public figures, completely side-stepping the real reasons.

Watching this in March 2024, as pro-HAMAS protests swamp London streets and young wokeists are joining dawa-ists without even knowing which river and which sea are referred to in their chant, it seems to me it’s time for an update to this particular discussion. In the nicest possible terms, she told us so.

Probably from Labour MPs.

What a clear, refreshing realuty based perspective. How to stop this? How about enforcing the law and using the prison and deportation system. Law abiding people will have nothing to fear. Why fog criminality with a pretence of dark, irrational belief systems?
Because "bigotry of low expectations". The woke zealots feel sorry for all minorities and don't dare put any demands on them because they're "victim". Similarly to children, if they're pandered and given things for free, they become entitled and empovered in their delusions. Same goes for all people. To fix a problem you first have to identify it. And and a big part of the problem is Islam and the culture that's imported with it. To delude people into thinking otherwise is disingenuous at best, and people are dying as a consequence.
As someone in the US who usually empathizes with wokeness, I was surprised at how much I agree with all of her points. Brilliant analysis, thank you.
Most people you see as anti-woke are not against the things the woke believe....they are against the way they are being implemented. They are against Critical Race Theory but not pro-racism. They are pro-womens rights but don't believe in the "wage gap"....They are not against transpeople but don't agree with kids being given puberty blockers. I find the whole woke movement as very conceited and classist.....and ignorant. They think they are the only good ones. It's like a religion. I'm glad you've looked outside the box.
Usually people who agree with wokeness is because they have not gone deep into the subject.It seems to be a very good path, but if you really thought about it , you would realize it is not a good road to go .

"We have this problem, we need to address it." That is in itself insufficient. The problem of violence will not go away. Violence in Islam got baked into the religion at its inception.

True, while Christians were dying in Roman Empire coliseums, accepting to just be martyrs with the promise of eternal life, until The Templar Crusader period changed it all. God's salvation. A quick explained difference.
@@anaibarangan4908 There is a great deal of hypocrisy among Westerners who use the Crusades as a case against the Church. Those same people, when given a choice to live under Islam or Christianity, would pick Christianity in an instant. Rightfully so.The Islamic world is a grand mess, has been for more than a thousand years, because it lacks basic rights that allow cultures to evolve, chief among them freedom of speech. That said, many people will disagree with my statement, and it's safe to assume every single one of those people never left the comforts of the West. They have no actual life experience to back up their hollow convictions. Go live in the East and you'll see what I mean. Until then, you don't know what you're talking about.
The violent spread of Islam across multiple continents was not lost upon the northern Europeans of the Medieval period. They'd seen the Byzantine Empire fall under Ottoman invasions, which went all the way up to the Iberian Peninsula. Muslims did not absorb any of these places peacefully. The Muslim takeover of the Holy Land was but one more blow, albeit the most crucial one. Knights rushing off to route the Ottomans was right and just. To defend the Ottomans is to defend an altogether totalitarian invasive culture.
Divided nations, which is what wokeness, multiculturalism, uncontained immigration and accepting of unlimited refugees (or non-refugees) and infighting amongst politicians are doing, is a gift to the ideologies of fundamentalist and radical islamists.
Amazing woman.

I agree with her. When people come here they are welcome but need to accept our culture as it is and not want to change it.

Wonderful interview and admirable guest
Always brilliant. Many of us have lived in secular west (specifically California for me) and found it to be a spiritual and moral desert! I now live among a group of strict Amish and looking outward from within them I see an America crumbling due not to differences in politics or policy but to profound lack of spiritual and moral backbone. We don’t need the law to enforce right behavior. We need a transcendent guide and the moral fiber to follow it.
What a sanctimonious and limited attitude. The Amish have just the same misogynist doctrine that Ayaan has spent her life campaigning against. The truth is that the world is run by psychopaths...and that includes any religion with any power. Until we do something about every position of power being filled by someone who covets power and has no functioning empathy, we are lost. What you mean by spirituality simply helps to enforce this status quo. Basic psychology is far more helpful than any spiritual teaching.
@@LusciousTwinkle name calling will not make the desert of moral spineless ness go away. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. That’s a moral precepts that proceeds from a spiritual belief. The psychopaths you think are the power hungry are merely humans doing what animals without a moral conscience do BY nature. Religion civilized us. The best religions made us the best humans. This is a deep principle the Plain people I live among know. As a result they act in ways that are extraordinary good. I did not find that anywhere in secular society. And I have expressed my thoughts here now without calling you any complicated and derogatory psychological names. Indeed, I thought Ayaan brilliant in her analysis of how a socially deficient culture can breed an extreme reaction and fall prey to the worst of religious teachings.
@@Barbaralee1205 Sorry but we were still hang,draw and quartering when religion was in power. The rejection of religion ie the Enlightenment is what brought about civilization as we know it. I didn't namecall. I said it as I see it..And psychopaths are like animals! That's my whole point!. They are not suitable for the positions of power they hold.And your do as you would be done by is all very well until you meet one with a knife in a dark alley ... I suppose you are going to treat them with the same respect? In Europe we have done just fine with less and less religion....There are several channels on UA-cam about the abuse and misogyny with the Amish communities....and for all their morality they actually have a class system....It's just another kind of Wizard of Oz....All is not as it seems and behind it is fraudsters pulling their levers like they always have since the first conman invented God.
@@Barbaralee1205 Very sorry you have such a limited vocabulary. Try a dictionary maybe?

@@spikey_labrys Ooh can u tell me how?
Ayyan is brilliantly articulate. The problem discussed throws up one obvious solution- stop being ‘politically correct’. Will we???
It's funny, I've had a friend who worked for GCHQ and a teacher who worked in military intelligence and they both on separate occasions have told me the same thing, which was that the general public have no idea how close they come to seeing major terrorist attacks almost every day, and the reason the general public don't know that is that so many are very narrowly avoided EVERY DAY that most of us would never sleep, eat or even leave the house if we did
After what happened last October, I started to think, it's only a matter of time before we see the mother of all terror attacks here. I now live less than a 10 min walk from the office. Still I don't feel safe, but I can't stay in doors. I live in London. I also go into Central London once a week. Every time I get on a bus or train I am looking at the people around me.

Such a well spoken and courageous young woman…listening to her: yes there is hope.
There is nothing wrong with loving your people, especially when your people are Europeans who have contributed so much to history. Why is saying that you love your ancestors such a "hostile" message to people?
Because our superiority as Europeans over other peoples was so total, so overwhelming that to acknowledge *any* of it would be unbearable to them.
That superiority ended over a lifetime ago. The people who were responsible have all passed away. No one today should be encumbered with the guilt of things over which they had no control. It defies all logic. By the same token, not one iota of history should be obfuscated.

The politicians of all parties, across the West, have decided that we must gradually submit to Islam, and there is nothing you can do about it. This has been obvious for many years.
China seems to be the only one standing firm. Personally I think it has the might to challenge Islam. I did believe once the oil ran out the world would collectively destroy suadi. But it's sent it's footsoldiers to every corner and now I think only China is the beacon
Until that certain moment arrives when we do something about it. It will come.
Islam will be unveiled and exposed and we will see it annihilated and become nothing more than a museum piece.
This is the same as with China. The politicans were wrong about China becoming more liberal as they get richer. They are also wrong about such different communities adopting if they stay here long enough.
this woman is a treasure
Bang on the money as usual!!
Nowadays, i seem to be an everythingist.... just a normal everyday person working to live and get by helping others everyday. All the Ism's and phobias are just used as a weapon it seems! Just because they can and be rewarded for it.
Correct 💯
She's right. The gutless politicians don't want to tackle it so it will remain a part of our lives.
Exactly. How must these people feel when they escape to the west in the hope of gaining a better life, to find when they get there, that the west is busy destroying itself
@@chris-mg5ui This is why Im not too worried about immigration. Most immigrants arent woke. I am still for strong border security but from a political perspective the immigrants have seen what garbage government/ideas really looks like so they dont want that to go away. If the anti-woke reached out to the immigrants I think the woke may just get swallowed up.
@@Designsy-wl9nr The news has been out but buried from past few years. The US border is very important. This group has been working to convert at the border. Some of these people, males, have been cropping up on this platform. That group only accepts what their own laws say. Anything else means nothing to them. Law is govt. Sieve borders and these movements over the yrs are part of their processes.
Arabist Dr. Mordechai Kedar speaks of the period that Muhammed preached in Mecca as being one where his teachings were rejected as nothing new and him being accused of merely 'copy/pasting' from Jewish and Christian sources.
He was especially influenced by a Jewish Rabbi formerly from Yemen who taught him the 'Jewish ropes'.
This utter rejection 'at home' reflected in his change of direction when finding greener pastures in Medina.
Dr. Kedar is one to look into......heaps on UA-cam.
Wow....what a conclusion... very very true Ali..we love your truthfulness. !!!
Havent heard her name in ages, big name back in the netherlands, great to see she's doing well
Christopher Hitchens once quoted Anjem Choudhary from his BBC interview, The interviewer asked him.
If this is how you feel about Sharia and total islamic law, then wouldn't you be happy if you move to a country that already has Sharia?
Anjem Choudhary: What makes you think this is your country?
The gentle unpicking of the fuse that is Islam, Ayaan has the right temperature for the job.
I'm more of a blow it up from a distance man.
"What is the animating principle?" Where have u been, unherd? The stated goal of Islamism is world domination.
Yes; Many of them come here because it's much nicer, but they're still intent on forcing their ideology onto us. They are never going to become western liberals.
Deluded
no
God help the UK.
I think about you guys quite frequently. I feel for the whole of Europe. This caught up with USA on 9/11 but now we're so "woke" we don't know our ass from a hole in the ground and it's just a matter of time before we have another 9/11. God help the USA too.
God is a man made myth like 🎅 but I prefer Santa 🎅.

@@bear-tv That's beautiful. Is that from the Bible?
We are battling people with a safety fetish, Ayaan. Their fear has stopped their ears. There is no way to get through to them. Take care!
It’s Christmas Eve prayers for Sir David Asman and particularly for his family wife and children 🙏🏽 watching a live stream Christmas Mass from Bethlehem
A few hours ago I accused Henry VIII of having expelled the Jews from England. This, of course, is wrong. It was Edward I in 1290 (Edward Longshanks, the Coloniser of Wales, the Hammer of the Scots). It was the Roman Catholic Church that Henry was against. Oliver Cromwell readmitted the Jews in 1650. I apologise for this egregious error, which I blame on hypoglycaemia.
Love this woman.
Dankjewel, Ayaan.
Wokeness is in no way accepted by me.
Interesting that the movement is called “woke” even as it shuts people’s eyes to the complexity of life.
A movie should be made based on her biography.
Can we not find another less glamorous sounding appellation than ‘lone wolf’ for the cretins. Btw, the so-called Prevent programme is never going to work.
no system can work, the left woke won't allow it, they want it all to fail that's the point of woke- destroy the values and institutions of the west.while the far left stop the west from acting fully to defend itself the problem will grow within it.
I heard of her first through following Geert Wilders in the Netherlands.
What is crazy is that if I wanted house mates I would chose people who would fit in. Whereas in immigration it’s what qualifications one has which do not reveal how likely they are to fit in. I bet no woke person would house share with a conservative but somehow they would say ok to someone who would ultimately like todo away with the way they would like society to turn out
She is so good.....Put her in charge.....
She seems pretty uncomprehending of the contradictory nature of liberal society though. "Do what you want but only within the limits of what other people want to do". As wonderful an idea as it is, it doesn't work and has the seeds of its own destruction within it, always susceptible to more forthright ideas that seek advantage. I'm surprised she's married to Ferguson, he's much more 'based' about life and history.
Amazing reporting from a very brave women and a great explanation of what is really happening our government needs to listen to her!
Greetings from America the world needs to hear this
clear & sensible thinking woman....👍..
The only difference between a "religion" and "silly cult" is the NUMBER of followers. It is by force of numbers, that regular people accept a belief system as a religion.
A fantastically brave lady, I saw one interview with her a couple of years back bought her first book instantly. Infidel is a hard read, but should be on everyone's list who wants to have an informed view on these issues.
Why can't people live in this century and not the middle ages?
People are sheep sheep need shepherds shepherds lead sheep to the slaughter
She’s the best let’s combat extreme theocratic inspired violence
She's an amazing woman but we've been playing this game with them since before the Crusades. They haven't listened yet. I know it's good to be hopeful but what makes her think they will listen now? Some things remain hopeless. We forget that at our peril.

The woke are fundamentalists as well. They will not listen either. Everything they do is in service of gaining power. Their dishonesty is becoming more obvious but too many people still take their words at face value. I shudder to think what they will do should they ever hold all of the levers.
@@Individual_Lives_Matter Well said. The newest political party called the IDIOTS. We are becoming an IDIOCRACY. I shudder with you.
China is showing the way to deal with it
The extent of the censorship of the algorithm on this channel is astonishing. I have expressed a *fact* (not opinion) three times - even censoring myself the third time - only to be deleted each time.
Is that news? Saying "gender is a fact" [Dave Chappelle had the guts to say that] is considered hate speech these days.
It's a good job that there are courageous women such as Ayaan Hirsi Ali. She knows Islam inside out - was Muslim herself, was subjected to some cruel and abusive aspects of the islamist ideology. Muslim reformers must be supported by the West, otherwise the West will be destroyed from within in a jiffy.
Asra Nomani, a Muslim woman of spirit, fights back against this 'woke' madness too.

Jihad is not terrorism, jihad is Islam.
Amazing woman! thank you x
It's even simpler:
Anything that isn't against Islam,
is supporting Islam.
Ok incel 🙄
no better person to know islam from inside but ayaan and also she knows lunatic fringe on liberal side too
ofcourse, muslim scholars and theologians are lining up just to learn from her majesty. lol give me a break

I agree with her 😊.

The Mayor of Zaltbommel flattened the community centre given to the North Africans,after they turned the place into a crime centre...he waited till the place was empty though.
