Apa kata Ayaan Hirsi Ali tentang kekerasan dalam dunia Islam?


Ms. Ayaan Hirsi Ali memang tidak diterima di dunia Islam arus utama. Bahkan dia menjadi objek caci maki dan hinaan dan sumpah serapah. Tetapi pikiran-pikirannya perlu dikenal dan dipahami juga. Baru-baru ini dia menyatakan hal ini:
“Not all of this violence is explicitly motivated by religion, but a great deal of it is. I believe that it is foolish to insist, as Western leaders habitually do, that the violent acts committed in the name of Islam can somehow be divorced from the religion itself. For more than a decade, my message has been simple: Islam is not a religion of peace.”
