Sexual Violence Against Women: Europe's Open Secret as Revealed by Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Ayaan Hirsi Ali

On February 8, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson interviewed Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who spoke on the topic of sexual violence against women in Europe. Ali did not mince words, The Somali immigrant, who is herself a victim of female circumcision, blamed the dramatic increase on the flood of immigration into Europe by Muslim men from the Middle East, Africa, and other countries like Afghanistan.

Here is Fox News’s announcement of the interview.

The actual interview can be viewed here.

And where is the outrage? Where is the coverage of this on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN? Where is the Me Too movement? Where are the feminist organizations? 

This is the dirty little secret that everybody in Europe knows. In European cities today, it is not safe for women to walk the streets at night. Sweden, for example, is the rape capital of Europe, and its leaders say nothing. On the one hand, these mostly uneducated migrants from Muslim-majority countries consider European women to be sluts-ready for the taking. As for the Muslim women in Europe who live behind closed doors-who knows what goes on in these no-go zones that now infest European cities?

Kudos to Ms. Ali for speaking out on the topic. Her life has been under threat from the Islamists ever since she fled her family and went to the Netherlands, where she left Islam and became an outspoken critic. She eventually had to leave that country, when it became too cumbersome for that feckless government to protect her. She deserves respect for what she does. Instead, the left attacks her or ignores her. As we previously reported, Ali is scheduled to speak on February 11  at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, an organization that regularly hosts speakers from the entire spectrum of topics and opinions. The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has asked that the event be canceled. I have been informed via email by the president of the Commonwealth Club, Gloria Duffy, that the event would not be canceled.
