Going the rounds in social media is a cartoon done by Pat Bagley about Malala Yousufzai. The caption states: "What terrifies religious extremists like the Taliban are not american tanks or bombs or bullets. It's a girl with a book..."

Exactly.

Do you know that a child's IQ cannot be tested?why? because s child has no limited imagination hence they got no limited intellect, and who do you think are the main target of religions?

There was an SMS doing the rounds recently praising Malala for standing up to the Taliban, "So the only real man in Pakistan turned out to be a 14 yrs old girl"

The UAE supplied a state of the art plane equipped with a medical bay and a team of doctors to fly her to the UK. She arrived, has been through surgery and is said to be doing well. At least that's what they said on the radio this morning.

Be it worldly education or education of the true religion of Islam, minus their disgusting distortions and extremism, is by far what these power hungry misguided demons fear!

Our prayers are with Malala..she is a brave girl indeed and deserves much better.

The disgusting Taleban have announced they would try again to kill her once she has recovered. Imagine the way these people are thinking, if they think at all.

Tahsimim, i think the Pakistani government should spare no expense to help this girl one way or another. That is the very least they can do.

A very brave girl who should have and deserves a lot more support.

I heard she is being treated for her head wound ,inflicted by a gun shot by a very cowardly man , in the UK?

and the others before her: Rosa Parks, Alexander Solzhenitsyn, Nelson Mandela, and the brave but nameless people who have affected change. For us ordinary mortals, we are truly inspired by their selfless sacrifice. I hope Malala Yousufzai survives.
