| #2 Look, she got a year at the Dutch government's expense, even though it was their fault she had to leave. The Dutch stereotypically are penny pinchers, so it's no surprise they did only as much as necessary to make her go away quietly. The American Enterprise Institute saved the cost of a year's worth of bodyguarding, Ms. Ali is nicely settled in her new home, so everyone wins. Agreed about hunting the baited field, though. |

| #1 I'm surprised that the AEI didn't make some connections to have security provided for her in the US. If nothing else, putting her on the Justice Department WPP would be an excellent opportunity to put her somewhere safe, then use her name for bait to attract murderous Muslims in the US into an FBI trap. It's almost like hunting in a baited field. Let it slip out that she is living alone in a rural house, out in the middle of nowhere. To get there, the attempted murderers would have to follow an elaborate path to show their intentions, and would carry weapons or explosives onto a restricted federal reservation. Just being there with weapons could get them ten to twenty years in federal prison. Unless they really wanted to mess with them. Then say she is living in some chemical weapons storage depot, where the guards are authorized to shoot intruders until they are *sure* they are dead. If the FBI was cagey about it, they could round up a good 20 or 30 attempted murderers every year. |
