It's long, but worth watching. What a great woman. She and Ayaan Hirsi Ali are my heroes, for what they've accomplished, the fact that they've changed their thinking so drastically (recognized the realities of Islam after growing up Muslim), and for putting their lives at risk to spread the word about what Islam is really about.
I've heard about 22 minutes so far, and the interviewer is playing "Gotcha!" with her. It's annoying as hell.
He asked if she saw herself as "a crusader." It's like he's trying to get her to prove that she's a xenophobic bigot and Christian imperialist. It's a dickish interview style.
Lots of good stuff there.
