A brave woman of indomitable spirit, abused by uncles as a young girl, and now threatened by Islamicist fanatics, but she willl never surrender. Like Irshad Manji, Wafa Sultan, Ayann Hirsi Ali, and many many more.
But where are all the men ?

International Women's Day London 2007
Taslima Nasrin
Exiled from her native Bangladesh, since 1994, for her **crime** of speaking freely in her writings. This feminist, 45, who describes herself as a secular humanist, is a newspaper, columnist, poet, novelist and autobiographer, as well as a physician and gynocologist.
3 MPs Attack Writer Taslima Nasreen
Freedom is indivisible , and the latest victim of Jihadi thuggery is Taslima Nasreen, 45, a doctor and writer, several of whose books were banned in her native Bangla Desh and is now forced to leave India due to lack of Government protection from threats. The Communist regime in West Bengal, where she had sought refuge, also banned a work of hers. Her health has suffered and she is now in exile in Europe. Another brave woman, like Benazir Bhutto.
