That is such a dumb "takedown", also full of lies about Hirsi Ali, everything about her persona and background is fake. She was raised in a fairly tolerant environment as a Somali refugee in Kenya, and ironically enough she received aid from Muslim charities there.
She claimed refugee status in Holland on false grounds, alleging persecution and mistreatment, and was able to get a green card to the US by marrying a Somali man who was already here, dumping him right after she got her papers. Ironically enough, she was the party that exploited their spouse.
This is all well-documented by among other sources, the Dutch equivalent of 60 Minutes, will post the report if you want.
Hirsi Ali has made millions posing as an oppressed female immigrant on the vast, very well-funded and promoted neocon propaganda circuit. Her attack on Tucker is pure projection. Tucker's success is based on providing an alternative to neocon narratives from the populist right, also reaching out to independents and open-minded Democrats and leftists. He has had FU money for decades, and is more motivated by presenting true anti-establishment viewpoints on a range of issues to a very large audience than by financial need.
Ali's "takedown" of Tucker is idiotic:
Quote:
Her thesis is surgical: Tucker " . ." He sees Europe's spiritual vacancy, demographic collapse, and economic sclerosis and correctly identifies a civilization in crisis. Then he looks at the Gulf states and gets the causation .
" , . . , ."
The GCC countries are very conservative Muslim societies, among the most socially conservative of the ~50 Muslim countries in the world, due to their embrace of Wahhabi Islam, the most backwards form of that religion. The reason they have been economically thriving is mainly because they have lots of oil and gas, and up to this year, have been left alone and not bombed or actively destabilized and sanctioned, not because of sharia law or lack thereof.
