Booker rising - Netherlands: Muslims Seek Ban on "Submission II"
By Molotov

Yes, Tyrone and Imani. Muslims in Holland are in an uproar over moderate parliamentarian Ayaan Hirsi Ali (pictured), who remains in hiding. We've previously reported that the self-described "lapsed Muslim" has vowed to make a sequel to the short film "Submission," which argued that Islam legitimizes violence against women. On November 2 on a busy Amsterdam street, an Islamic extremist shot and almost beheaded filmmaker Theo van Gogh, who filmed MP Hirsi Ali's script - and then left a five-page death threat letter to her.

Dutch Muslims now seek a court injunction to prevent her from making the sequel, which will focus on how Islam hampers individual freedom. And oh, they also want to ban her from making "hurtful" remarks about Muslims and Islam. Their lawyer noted that MP Hirsi Ali recently described Islam as "deadly dangerous," without making a distinction between fundamentalist Islam and Islam in general. They surely mean these comments, which we reported yesterday. The case will probably be heard in The Hague, but it's unclear when it will take place.

Let us get this straight. A Moroccan-Dutch rap group can call for MP Hirsi Ali's death and call her a "house Negro" in a cut that was played on some radio stations, she must fend off other jihadists, and she's the one in hiding but yet Muslims wanna talk about hurtful stuff?! Y'all are trippin' big time. They're in uproar over free speech, but not murder. If need be, we suggest MP Hirsi Ali film it in USA and just upload it on the Internet.
