'''Ayaan Hirsi Ali''' is a [[Netherlands|Dutch]] feminist and author of such works as ''Submission'' and ''The Caged Virgin.'' Born in 1969 in [[Somolia]], she was raised there and in [[Kenya]], before fleeing to the Netherlands in order to escape an arranged marriage. Although she spent most of her life as a devout [[Muslim]], after the attacks on the [[World Trade Center]]s in [[America]] on September 11th, she re-examined her beliefs. After reading ''Atheistisch Manifest'' by [[Herman Philipse]], she became an outspoken atheist. Until recently, she held a seat in the Dutch [[Parliament]], the [[Tweede Kamer]]. <ref>http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4985636.stm</ref>
