Taliban to Malala

"come back home, adopt the Islamic and Pashtun culture and join any female Islamic madrassa,

use your pen  :

and reveal the conspiracy of the tiny elite who want to enslave the whole of humanity".

After the shooting, Malala was flown from Pakistan to the UK for treatment,

and now lives in Birmingham, England.

Her speech on her 16th birthday at UN headquarters in New York :

was her first public address since last October's attack........

Taliban's letter is viewed as an attempt to attract media attention with a view to counter

the impact of Malala's speech at the UN....

Is Malala Yousufzai a Hero or an Agent of the West ?

what's your opinion

                         

In the name of Allah, the most beneficent, the most merciful.

Honorable UN Secretary General Mr Ban Ki-moon

respected president of the General Assembly Vuk Jeremic,

honorable UN envoy for global education Mr Gordon Brown

respected elders and my dear brothers and sisters:

Assalamu alaikum.

............today I am wearing a shawl of the late Benazir Bhutto.

I don't know where to begin my speech. I don't know what people would be expecting me to say,

but first of all thank you to God for whom we all are equal and thank you to every person who

has prayed for my fast recovery and new life.

Dear friends, on 9 October 2012, the Taliban shot me on the left side of my forehead.

They shot my friends, too. They thought that the bullets would silence us, but they failed.

And out of that silence came thousands of voices

The terrorists thought they would change my aims and stop my ambitions.

But nothing changed in my life except this: weakness, fear and hopelessness died.

Strength, power and courage was born.
