Our World: Hirsi Ali's challenge to humanity

Ayaan Hirsi Ali is arguably the bravest and most remarkable woman of our times.

They followed the wire to its source and discovered the school had been built as a deathtrap. The pious Muslims who constructed the school had filled propane tanks with explosives and buried them beneath the floor. They built artillery shells into the ceiling and the floor.
