The Taliban's main fear is not drones but educated girls
2012-11-05
[Guardian.co.UK] Apparently, Pakistanis don't need the Taliban to destroy their schools any more – they can do it themselves. Last week, a girls' high school was set ablaze in Pakistan's second largest city, Lahore. And no, the Taliban were not the culprits. A mob, enraged after allegations of blasphemy against a teacher, carried out the attack. Instead of taking action against them, the police arrested the school's 77-year-old owner.

The accused teacher, who allegedly committed blasphemy by photocopying the wrong page of a book for homework, is in hiding. Pakistan may have declared an "education emergency" earlier this year, but it still fails to protect the schools it already has.

#6  Once the US-West starts accomodating and emplacing Sharia in "normal" US Society, the Legal System will prolly becom flooded wid pro-Sharia lawsuits demanding that Muslim-specific girls, teens, and young adult women receive little or no education as per the non/anti-Islam specific US Public-Private School Sytem(s). ALL-FEMME ISLAMIC MADRASSAS + SCHOOLS WILL BE INITIALLY SET UP TO APPEASE US POLITICOS + US COURTS, BUT THEN WILL BE QUIETLY OR PCORRECTLY PHASED OUT IN FAVOR MALE-CENTRIC/ONLY INSTITUTIONS.

Espec iff the US Econ still suffers from OWG = "Globalism" led protractive chaos and decline -read, NO $$$ ANYMORE TO EDUCATE EVERYONE, HENCE mst must Must MUST M-U-S-T MMMUUUSSSSTTT, D *** YOU, GIVE "PRIORITY" TO MALES.

MUST, MUST - SPELLED M-U-S-S-K - MUST!

And once again, the Left can't complain because they've been in the forefront of imposing SECULARISM + SUPER_SECULARISM, e.g. Anti-National Identity Universal SocioPolitical
"Stratification" under the auspice of ever Big[ger] Govt + Welfare-Nanny/Entitlement State, on US Govt-Society or Mainstream at large.

SPIT-ON-THE-FLAG, MICRO/TOTALITARIAN CONFEDERATISM = FEDERALISM, NO-NEED-FOR-COMMON-LANGUAGE-OR-EDUCATION-OR-ANYTHING, LEFTY "DIVERSITY" + "PLURALISM" + "TOLERANCE" + "OPPORTUNITY" + ...........@etc. = SHARIA IN AMERICA = JIHAD IN ISLAMO-AMERIKA???

America = Amerika is building OWG-NWO in order to give it up - THE US IS THE ONE THAT MUST GIVE UP ITS NATIONALISM, ITS POWER + INFLUENCE, ETC. NOT THE REST OF THE WORLD.

#5  Frankly (srsly) I don't fear the educated ones so much as the smart ones.

#3  Education isn't the problem. The BinLadens and co. were all educated.

The problem is that they are brought up into the death cult that is Islam and that the major players all buy into that cult. Until the cult is broken it will ever be thus.

#2  Pakistan's problem isn't uneducated girls - it's uneducated guys. Without state-funded schools to lean on, parents send their kids to Gulf state-funded madrassas where their principal task is to memorize the Koran from cover to cover, and their room and board is free. It's a colossal waste of human resources, but that is the reality of the Pakistani (and Bangladeshi) state.
