Hats off to the girl. Pakistan is reaping what it has sowed in its backyard. We must stop this religious fundamentalism.
Malala ur all nation is with u….we all salute u…..n our prayers are with u…..may u get well very very very soon…..GOD bless you…once again we all salute u.
If people did mass protests around the world and killed innocent people for the ignornat movie made by one person, what will happen after this outrageuous act? Probably nothing since the people that were protesting are extremists and cowards. I am glad to see the outpour of support for this young lady. We need more like her across the world.
It is astonishing to feel the fear to condemn the Taliban in clear terms on the national media.This incident calls for a united action in the form of rallies and protests against the Taliban.Religious leaders have to take a clear stand against Taliban or they may be counted as their supporters expecting to takeover and rule of the country in the vacuum intended to be created through chaos and confusion by these barbarians .
bravest girl of our nation … entire country is proud of you … my prayers are with you kid .. may Allah bless you
This attack shows that TTP are even scared of a 15 yr old girl also.
The shooting of Malala should bring all Muslims around the world to the streets in protest??!!!
Can somebody please explain how shooting a 14 year old girl in the head advances a political/religious cause?
Attacking an innocent unarmed girl.
I wonder if we could ever get rid of these psychotic blood hungry monsters called the Taliban.
I condemn the shooter and his thinking. WE all respect and love her.
i salute this young girl for her courage to uphold the spirit of islam…may allah open the gates of wisdom and the spirit of islam to those ignorant hordes called protectors of islam..threy are a pitifull lot indeed!
What would IK and Taliban Applogists say about this heinous act? don’t these Taliban deserve death from Drones?
She is “fatima bint abdullah” of modern age.
may the innocent soul recover her life.
Such a young girl with so big a heart must have been born in an equally warm home.Wish her success in her noble dreams.God bless her.
I am proud of her parents, who born this child.
