Surprisingly, Muslims don't like this book.....

Seriously, this is an excellent read. Some chapters are a bit hard going, but the conclusions they come to make it worth the slog. Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a woman to be admired for her intellect and her courage. Muslims hate this book because they fear it. They fear it because it may cause them to question aspects of their religion, and their religion (which they must neither question nor leave, on pain of death) will only take a few holes poked in it before it's revealed as a tissue paper facade.

The whole book is brilliant, and the highlight is the screenplay for the film that got van Gogh murdered by a frightened Muslim.

Thank you Ayaan for sharing this with us.
