Support Literacy in Pakistan

Less than half of Pakistani youth are in any type of school, so the literacy rate is about 50%. Some of U.S. $2 billion a year spent on drones and the military should go to schools, avoiding corrupt officials who siphon off funds. For example, at low cost, a university student teaches illiterate villagers who don't have access to schools: http://opendoorsliteracyproject.weebly.com

An estimated 30,000 Pakistanis have been killed or wounded in the war against terrorism since 9/11. Let's do something constructive for the young people.

Why is this important?

Some of the $2 billion a year the U.S. government sends to Pakistan should be used to reduce the 50% illiteracy rate that breeds terrorists.
