Malala and Global Education Campaign
Support women's right to education.
Why is this important?
Malala, a fourteen years old girl was ambushed and shot by a group of Taliban in Swat, Pakistan on October 9th. . She was being punished for speaking out for women's right for education. She highlights the need for education for girls we well as stubborness on the part of uneducated Taliban Mafia.
As Taliban nuisance is alive and well in Afghanistan and Pakistan. They are entrenched in Pakistan's area called FATA and are everywhere else as well. The question is as to how to combat their determination to take the nation back in to the dark ages. I strongly believe that the answer is in education, just like it brought Europe out of the dark ages.... Education not just for the common folks only but also for the children of these Taliban so they do not grow up like their fathers. This is the most cost effective way to prevent the continuance of the menace of ignorance.
What happens there affects us directly. The treatment of ignorance is costing us billions of dollars a month. The prevention will cost us just a few million dollars a year. I guess it is a human nature, we do not want to pay attention to prevention and then wonder, what the hell happened.
I propose that we pay attention to taming the monster by taking in their children and enroll them in schools where they are taught all the subjects including humanities.... education imbued with human values.
Respectfully submitted
