Yesterday Mrs. Ayaan Hirshi Ali, a Dutch Liberal Parliamentarian of Somalese origine (VVD), and scenariowriter of the van Gogh film Submission revealed to journalists her intention to produce another Submission-film.

The first episode of Submission, an allegory of the abuse of women in Islam, contributed immensely to the murder of the Dutch filmmaker Mr. Theo van Gogh. Mrs. Ayaan Hirshi Ali avowed her continuous support to the cause of enlightenment.
The Dutch writer, philosopher Connie Palmen noted that extreme idealism blinds the mind.

Yesterday evening the German 'Report' broadcasted a chilling report about imans sentencing Muslims in Europe who convert to Christianity or another religion to death. A deathlist is circulating on the internet, a reporter was told by an Iranian asylumseeker.
