14 year old girl shot in head on her school bus by Taliban for speaking out.... (Posted on 10/10/12 at 5:15 pm)
....on education for girls.
quote: Malala Yousufzai was shot and seriously wounded on Tuesday as she was leaving her school in her hometown in the Swat valley, northwest of the capital, Islamabad.
The Taliban claimed responsibility, saying her promotion of education for girls was pro-Western and she had opposed them.

They may have reached that point. The folks in Benghazi had enough of the Al Qaeda and ran them out of town and now this may do it for Pakistan. The Saudis ran Al Qaeda out of their country a few years ago when they blew up a school full of young Saudi girls. Notice you never hear of terrorists blowing up shite in Saudi Arabia.

That's absolutely insane. I anticipate some sort of apology for her murder. It's amazing that a 14 y/o girl can speak out but our president says nothing when our ambassador gets murdered.

Yep. It's in the lower link. If she lives they will get her the second time. The US has offered all assistance possible. Once she is stabilized enough to travel, they need to bring her to the US and take her to Johns Hopkins or somewhere like that and never let her back in there so those cowardly animals get another chance.
Words escape me trying to process how these animals can do the things they do. Hopefully, things like this will turn the enablers in these countries against them.

That hole region is sick in the fing head. If there are so many 'good' muslims, their asses need to do something about the Taliban and not just sit back an watch travesties like this.
