Denmark to Hirsi Ali's Rescue

Bravo for the Danes.
FROM ATLASSHRUGS:
Denmark to Hirsi Ali's Rescue
Once again it is Denmark that stands up to Nazlims, Islamists, leftards. Their courage goes as far back as the Nazis all those years ago. They have stepped up to the plate for Ayaan Hirsi Ali, offering to cover the expenses for the security to keep her alive while The Dutch contemplate their dhimmi navels. No balls, none. Billions in welfare for the tsunami of Islamic immigrants rendering their country uninhabitable but gotz for the warrior, the lone maverick fighting the great fight. Fighting for us all.
Those asshats in the Netherlands ought to be hanging their heads in shame.
PAYING FOR THE BODYGUARDS
Denmark Offers Hirsi Ali a Safe Haven
Now that the Netherlands has pulled financial support for Islam critic Ayaan Hirsi Ali's protection in the United States, the Danish government has offered to pick up the tab for her bodyguards -- as long as she lives in Denmark.
The Danish government has offered Ayaan Hirsi Ali a safe haven. Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the controversial author and former Dutch politician who exiled herself to America in 2006, has been invited to live under government protection in Denmark now that Amsterdam has quit paying for her bodyguards. However she has politely declined, saying Tuesday that her "work is in the United States." The Somali-born author and prominent critic of Islam left the Netherlands last year after a bureaucratic squabble over her citizenship. She went to work as a fellow for the American Enterprise Institute -- a neoconservative think tank based in Washington, D.C. -- but remained under Dutch protection. Two weeks ago, she returned to the Netherlands after the government quit paying for her bodyguards in America.
Who the hell would want to stay in the dying continent? America still has a shot. We need her here.
Hirsi Ali has been under Dutch police protection since late 2004, when an Islamic extremist stabbed her friend Theo van Gogh to death in an Amsterdam street for his short film against Islam, called "Submission." Hirsi Ali, who was a member of the Dutch parliament at the time, helped write the script. Her life was threatened in a note left on van Gogh's body.
