A lot, to not feel good because it was proven to be politically motivated later. Because, I still know and understand intimately, why people did, what they did.
Did I say so? Then, no. I don't. You want to continue bringing in dozens of other heroes to attempt to dilute her fame and tragedy?
Rather she should alter it, by adding a bit.
"We complain of Islamophobia and say that other nations are disgracing us. No one is doing that. It is us who are giving a bad name to our country," Ms Yousafzai further stated (Still valid. The mob acted on their belief that Mashal Khan was a threat...
It isn't foolish. You say that since ANP instigated the murder, for their own agenda. Her statement suddenly became incorrect, in its entirety. I say, it didn't. Because, political revenge was why the leftist political party played the whole drama, the killers or the mob (a large part of them)...

"Today I heard about the death of Mashal Khan. It is a very agonising incident... This incident alone has brought disgrace to our nation. I urge people to know your religion, values and culture. They have always professed peace and tolerance," the youngest Nobel laureate said yesterday...
It was specifically in reference to the brutal murder of Mashal Khan and even though the religious component was proven to be fabricated later, still you shouldn't demand her, to retract the whole statement "logically", maybe alter it a bit. Because even though, new information has come to light...
What evidence is the former national security adviser, putting forward to support his claims? Because conspiracy theories, wishful conjecture and wild guessing are all I see. No Western media has accused Pakistan of keeping the family hostage, through its proxies, the last time I saw. Au...
To say that "challenging the system favored by the majority" is inherently wrong, isn't correct. Change is the only constant, in the universe. Everything was something else, some time ago. But the change should come peacefully and with the consent of those, it hopes to reorient and change. Not...
If anyone is so sure regarding their beliefs, they should make some effort and debate. Because as soon as someone says "boogeyman" and asks for certain opinions to be deleted or dealt with, one thing is clear that its somebody who hasn't done his/her homework, hence the prior knowledge that...
Words are one thing. Insufficient and incapable of bringing change without tangible and effective action. I am asking you, what are they doing in their actions for you to feel threatened? Forget it. I will make it simple. Can you please show me anything similar from secular and/or liberals in...
Well, that is your opinion, guaranteed and protected by Article 19 of the constitution of Pakistan, dealing with "freedom of speech". People, at times, have a certain habit for "always or never statements", "all or nothing" scenarios and for blaming the whole of anything. I have always noticed...
What are they doing, in deed (not words) to attain that? Do you see them on the streets, asking for any radical changes, as per their liking? Any protests or demonstrations? Why do you guys feel threatened then?
The burden of the proof, lies on the claimant, brother. You won't exactly be doing me a favor or spoon-feeding me, by providing sources. But I will look for it, myself. Lets see what I find.
It would be relevant if secular and/or liberals were trying to change the system here, in Pakistan...
Not the whole story, again. Define this inevitable and nearly there "chaos". The reasons are far many than just the rule of law. They might include the state not concerning itself with what the individuals are doing, inside their homes (something which I believe, that you agreed with yourself...
I plead "no contest" actually. In the UAE, I have seen people concern themselves mostly with their own business, tolerate others well and don't criticize necessarily or get angry over petty things. UAE has one of the world's highest HDI rating. I can see the point, that you are trying to make...
For the article, I will try my best. No problem. I have had much time on my hands, lately. The reason might not be "arranged marriages". But you can't ask for an unbiased article, when your criterion for one, is a predetermined and predefined root cause or reason. By doing so, you are admitting...
Thank you for being truthful. Please understand that I have no qualms with you guys living in the West, its none of my business and people are free to spend their life, as they please. My contention is with something else.
Sadly, I read the same "opportunism" (the taking of opportunities as and...
And now we are running around in circles. All that you are repeating, has been discussed in the previous posts. But since you guys expect really high impractical standards from a child, I shouldn't proceed further. The girl should be doing everything, while the state of Pakistan sits in...
