A Severe Penalty for Speaking out And her neighbours in the apartment block where she lives feel that their lives are put at risk too. They reason that some Islamic fruitcake might bomb the whole building to get at her and that might kill them too. So the neighbours have just got a Dutch court to evict Ayaan Hirsi Ali from her own home -- even though she herself has done nothing wrong! Perhaps the most interesting part of the case is that the court used European human rights law to justify the eviction. It would seem to show that human rights laws can be twisted to give any result you like. Apparently it was not a violation of the human rights of Ayaan Hirsi Ali for her to get tossed out of her own home! A bit like the way Penn State U used "diversity" guidelines to ban an art exhibition by a Jewish student. Details here.
