A bad habit of lying, because she should know better having served as a scholar at the Dutch Labour party think tank, Wiardi Beckman Stichting, ... Ayaan herself entered Europe as an asylum seeker and lied in het applications for asylum in The Netherlands. Her anti-Islam stance was more opportunistic in Ihe rightwing conservative party of VVD leader Frits Bolkestein. Her colleagues were Rita Verdonk, Geert Wilders and a coming man from the JOVD Youth Group, Mark Rutte. Because she apparently was illegal, there was political pressure to give up her seat in Dutch parliament.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali's Prey: A Panel Discussion on Europe, Islam, and Women's Rights
Somali-Born Legislator Ayaan Hirsi Ali's Dutch Citizenship Rescinded | VOA - 1 Nov 2009 |
The Dutch Immigration Minister Rita Verdonk (VVD) had been under pressure to limit illegal immigrants seeking asylum. She decided last week to revoke the citizenship of the Somali-born legislator Ayaan Hirsi Ali because she lied on her Dutch asylum application in 1992. The legislator then announced plans to resign her seat in parliament, leave The Netherlands, and take a job with a private conservative research organization, American Enterprise Institute, in Washington.
What brought Hirsi Ali to international attention was the documentary she made with Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh [diary July 2005] that criticized the treatment of women under Islam. She had been living with 24-hour police protection since his murder by a Mohammed Bouyeri, born in Amsterdam to a family of Moroccan descent. [Boueri has dual-citizenship as required by the Kingdom of Morocco.]
But Frank Hendrickx of The Netherlands Press Agency (NPA) told Judith Latham of VOA News Now's International Press Club that the saga of the Somali-born woman became entangled with many other issues such as immigration, assimilation, women's rights, Islam and the role of Muslim communities in Europe.
Pakistani journalist and former Pakistani Ambassador to Britain, Akbar Ahmed, says Hirsi Ali was controversial among conservative Muslims because of her role as screenwriter for the van Gogh film Fitna, which criticized the treatment of women in Islam as well as for her claim that the 9/11 terrorist attacks had their origins in Islam. Similarly, many members of the Dutch population saw her as a "troublemaker," while others supported her as a champion of women's rights and reform in Islam.
Egyptian journalist Mona Eltahawy notes that Hirsi Ali managed to unveil the hypocrisy in The Netherlands, a country that enjoys a reputation as one of the most tolerant societies in Europe but that also has strains of racism. On the other hand, Ms. Eltahawy says many Muslims in Europe have been extremely "reluctant to meet their host societies half way," which has fueled resentment toward them.

Geert Wilders to Netanyahu: The ICC prosecutor is ridiculous and wrong | Ynet News |
Dutch right-wing leader speaks to Netanyahu to express support for Israel and denounce the ICC decision to seek arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
Geert Wilders, the head of the Netherlands' Party for Freedom, the largest political faction and a member of the ruling coalition, announced on Thursday that he would be pursuing police action after his travel plans to Israel were leaked to the media, allegedly by Dutch civil servants.
"Today, I spoke with the Internal Investigations Department [of the Dutch police]. I will be filing a report because of the leak of my itinerary in Israel," Wilders said. According to Wilders, the NRC daily reported on the confidential trip plans "shortly after our embassy in Israel was informed.
"This endangers my safety, as well as that of my security guards. Totally unacceptable," the Dutch leader concluded his statement. Wilders has lived under 24/7 strict police protection since 2004 after receiving death threats over his vocal criticism of Islamic extremists.
The Nov. 14 NRC report said Wilders was set to tour Israel from Dec. 8 through Dec. 10 at the invitation of the ruling Likud Party and Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan.
Party for Freedom lawmaker Raymond de Roon confirmed Wilders's plans in parliament earlier this week, saying that the trip to Judea and Samaria was aimed at "orienting himself on the situation on the ground."
NRC claimed that the meeting between Wilders and Dagan would run counter to the policies of Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp, a member of the junior coalition partner New Social Contract Party. He supports the creation of a Palestinian state in Judea, Samaria and Gaza.
Veldkamp told members of the Dutch House of Representatives on Thursday that while he was unable to prevent individual members of parliament from traveling, he would discuss the trip with the Cabinet.
Veldkamp was also scheduled to fly to Jerusalem for an official visit, but Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar cancelled it due to the Dutch diplomat's support for the International Criminal Court arrest warrants against Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
Wilders--a staunch supporter of Israel's right to the entire Land of Israel from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea--resided in the Jewish state for two years during his youth and has reportedly visited the country more than 40 times. After he graduated from secondary school, he spent a year as a volunteer at Moshav Tomer in the Jordan Valley.
In 2018, Wilders declared, "The more Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria the better for that land is Jewish--and Jordan is Palestine!"
Where is former German defense minister Ursula Von der Leyen hiding after her travels to rightwing Hudson Institute, Ben Gurion university in Negev desert, lasting support for Netanyahu and his war cabinet showing the German biased position, not recognizing the fate of the Palestinian indigenous people and leveling with International Law on genocide. On the wrong side of history and humanity ... AGAIN.
European nations back ICC after it orders arrest of Netanyahu, Gallant | JNS |
Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp said his government would scrap all "non-essential contacts" with the Israeli prime minister.
European governments backed the International Criminal Court in The Hague following its decision on Thursday to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and slain Hamas terror leader Mohammed Deif.
Josep Borrell, the European Union's outgoing foreign-policy chief, claimed that the ruling was "not political" and should be respected.
"I take note of the decision of the international criminal court to issue arrest warrants for Prime Minister Netanyahu, the former minister of defense, Mr. Gallant, and the Hamas leader, Deif," Borrell said. "This decision is a binding decision on all states, all the state parties of the court, which include all members of the European Union," he added.
"The Netherlands obviously respects the independence of the ICC and does not interfere in the substance of investigations conducted by the ICC," Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp stated in parliament.
"We will examine the ruling, but the position of the Cabinet is clear: We are a party to the Rome Statute, and based on the Rome Statute [which established the court] and the ICC Implementing Act, we are obliged to cooperate with the ICC, and we will also do that," he continued.
The Hague's top diplomat said the Dutch government would scrap all "non-essential contacts" with Netanyahu in response to the ICC ruling. Veldkamp is scheduled to visit the Jewish state in the coming weeks. [has been cancelled by FM Saar for this very reason]
A French Foreign Ministry spokesperson informed AFP that Paris would respond in line with the court's founding statutes, raising the possibility that Netanyahu and Gallant could be placed under arrest in France.

TLP calls off protest march against blasphemous caricatures contest | Dawn News - Aug 2018 |
U.S. Consulate in Benghazi Seen in Flames during a protest by an armed group said to have been protesting an American film insulting the prophet
Nearly 3,000 demonstrators, most of supporters of the Salafist movement, gathered at the embassy in protest over a film deemed offensive to the Prophet Mohammed (Peace Be Upon Him) which was produced in the United States.
A dozen men scaled the embassy walls and one of them tore down the US flag, replacing it with a black one inscribed with the Muslim profession of faith: "There is no God but God and Mohammed is the prophet of God."
Egyptian police intervened without resort to force and persuaded the trespassers to come down. The crowd then largely dispersed leaving just a few hundred protesters outside the US mission, an AFP correspondent reported.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the film, "Innocence of Muslims", was made by Israeli-American Sam Bacile, a 52-year-old real-estate developer from southern California.
The film is being promoted by controversial Florida pastor Terry Jones, who has drawn protests in the past for burning the Koran and vehemently opposing the construction of a mosque near Ground Zero in New York.
Arab League deputy secretary general, Ahmed Ben Helli, has condemned the film saying it "contained insults against the prophet Mohammed" and "was denounced by Christians and Muslims" across the Arab world.
Tuesday's protests came on the eleventh anniversary of the attacks of September 11, 2001, when US cities were targeted by hijacked planes.

Orban invites Netanyahu to Hungary as ICC warrant sparks division in Europe
ADDENDUM
Will the EU shut airspace to flights of [alleged] war criminals Netanyahu and Gallant … a ban on all El Al flights into Europe? … a blockade around the Jewish State of Israel … will Israel face a global SUPER BDS boycott now, joining the Houthis 🇾🇪, Iraq 🇮🇶 and Iran 🇮🇷 ?
As I have written for two decades now … exploiting a divided Europe by forced NATO expansion … Old Europe adhering to the NWO post WWII vs the compliant former Soviet satellite states earning their place in alliance with the U.S. War on Terror … troops to the illegal war in Iraq, support for torture, rendition and black prisons. Great stuff America … a chapter from the Old West … You are either with us, or with the enemy.
