Coragious 'Infidel' Speaks Against Female Genital Mutilation
Author Ayaan Hirsi Ali talks about her new book, Infidel, and discusses her life as a fugitive, how to fight radical Islam, and the need for what she calls legitimate intolerance.
As others claim to be victims of global colonialism, Ayaan takes responsibility for her world. She argues that since the end of colonial rule, many Islamic nations have turned backward, instituting slavery and female genital mutilation. Her well spoken thought and story have been an inspiration to the west, as she claims her freedoms come not from rebelling against the past mistakes of former colonial powers, but from acceptance of the liberal reforms of modern western civil rights movements.
