This is an interview made by NRK February 3, 2006.
In this interview dutch politician Ayaan Hirsi Ali talks about the death threats she receives from radical muslims after making the movie "Submission" (she wrote the manuscript) with Theo Van Gogh. Van Gogh was murdered November 2, 2004 by a second generation migrant from Morocco, called Muhammed Buyeri. Buyeri claims to have murdered van Gogh to fulfill his duty as a Muslim. He stabbed him and left a note with Ayaan Hirsi Ali´s name on it.
She also talks about her view on islam and the danish cartoon controversy.
Nobody knew she was going to be on the show, due to security reasons.
My favourite quote from this interview:
"...we can go on to what I´m looking for, which is more reason among muslims and less religion."Also read Islamic Organization To Threaten The Courageous Ayan Hirsi Ali/The VIDEO "Submission".

She has just released the book "The Caged Virgin":
Excerpt from the book:
About twelve years ago, at age twenty-two, I arrived in Western Europe, on the run from an arranged marriage. I soon learned that God and His truth had been humanized here. For Muslims life on earth is merely a transitory stage before the hereafter; but here people are also allowed to invest in their lives as mortals. What is more, hell seems no longer to exist, and God is a god of love rather than a cruel ruler who metes out punishments. I began to take a more critical look at my faith and discovered three important elements of Islam that had not particularly struck me before.
The first of these is that a Muslim's relationship with his God is one of fear. A Muslim's conception of God is absolute. Our God demands total submission. He rewards you if you follow His rules meticulously. He punishes you cruelly if you break His rules, both on earth, with illness and natural disasters, and in the hereafter, with hellfire.
The second element is that Islam knows only one moral source: the Prophet Muhammad. Muhammad is infallible. You would almost believe he is himself a god, but the Koran says explicitly that Muhammad is a human being; he is a supreme human being, though, the most perfect human being. We must live our lives according to his example. What is written in the Koran is what God said as it was heard by Muhammad. The thousands of hadiths -- accounts of what Muhammad said and did, and the advice he gave, which survives in weighty books -- tell us exactly how a Muslim was supposed to live in the seventh century. Devout Muslims consult these works daily to answer questions about life in the twenty-first century.
