Ayaan Hirsi Ali Again!
Just in: Ayaan Hirsi Ali will announce tomorrow that she will leave her seat in the Dutch Parliament.
Ayaan hit the news again last week when she admitted that she had lied about her name and her personal circumstances in order to get the Dutch nationality. Her political party, the VVD (right wing libereal party) knew about this when she became a candidate for the Parliament. The minister of immigration policy is the hard-line Rita Verdonk from the same party, who told Ayaan that she would have refused her the Dutch nationality had she been a minister at that time. Recently a Turkish family was refused the Dutch nationality and sent back when it was found that they had lied during the immigration/naturalisation procedure.
Ayaan is invited to join the American Enterprise Institute in Washington per September 1, 2006.
One thing is for sure: never a dull moment with Ayaan!
