Interesting rebutal (not that I agree with anything he says).

Exclusive: ‘Dear Malala… from the Taliban’ - Channel 4 News

IN THE NAME OF ALLAH THE MOST MERACIFULL AND BENEFICEINT

From Adnan Rasheed to Malala Yousafzai

Peace to those who follow the guidanceMiss Malala YousafzaiI am writing to you in my personal capacity this may not be the opinion or policy of Tehreek eTaliban Pakistan or other jihadi faction or group.I heard about you through BBC Urdu service for the first time, when I was in bannu prison, atthat time I wanted to write to you, to advise you to refrain from anti-Taliban activities you wereinvolved in. but I could not find your address and I was thinking how to approach you with realor pseudo name, my all emotions were brotherly for you because we belong to same Yousafzaitribe.Meanwhile the prison brake happened and I was supposed to be in hiding. when you wereattacked it was shocking for me I wished it would never happened and I had advised you before.Taliban attacked you, was it islamically correct or wrong, or you were deserved to be killed or not, I will not go in this argument now, let’s we leave it to Allah All mighty, He is the best judge.Here I want to advise you as I am already late, I wish I would have advised u in my prison timeand this accident would never happened.

First of all please mind that Taliban never attacked you because of going to school or you wereeducation lover, also please mind that Taliban or Mujahideen are not against the education of anymen or women or girl. Taliban believe that you were intentionally writing against them andrunning a smearing campaign to malign their efforts to establish Islamic system in swat and your writings were provocative.You have said in your speech yesterday that pen is mightier than sword, so they attacked you for your sword not for your books or school.There were thousands of girls who were going to school and college before and after the Talibaninsurgency in swat, would you explain why were only you on their hit list??? Now to explain you the second point, why Taliban are blowing up schools? The answer to thisquestions in that not only Taliban in KPK or FATA are blowing up the schools but PakistanArmy and Frontier Constabulary is equally involved in this issue. The reason for this action iscommon between them that is turning of schools into hide outs and transit camps once it comesunder control of either party Pakistan Army or Taliban.In 2004 I was in Swat, I was researching on the causes of failure of the first revolution attempt by Sufi Muhammad. I came to know that FC was stationed in the schools of swat in tehsil Mattaand FC was using schools as their transit camps and hid outs. Now tell me who to blame???Dozens of schools and colleges are being used by Pakistan Army and FC as their barracks in

FATA, you can find out easily if you like. So when something sacred is turned lethal it needs to be eliminated this is the policy of Taliban.Blowing up schools when they are not using strategically is not the Taliban job, some black sheep of local administration may be involved to extract more and more funds in the name of schools to fill their bank accounts. Now I come to the main point that is EDUCATION, it is amazing that you are Shouting for education, you and the UNO is pretending that as you were shot due to education, although thisis not the reason, be honest, not the education but your propaganda was the issue and what youare doing now, you are using your tongue on the behest of the others and you must know that if the pen is mightier than the sword then tongue is sharper and the injury of sword can be hailed but the injury of the tongue never hails and in the wars tongue is more destructive than anyweapon.I would like to share with you that Indian sub-continent was highly educated and almost everycitizen was able to read or write before British invasion. Locals used to teach British officersArabic, Hindi, Urdu and Persian. Almost every mosque was acting as school too and Muslimemperors used to spend a huge sum of money on education. Muslim India was rich in farming,silk, and jute and from textile industry to ship building. No poverty, no crises and no clashes of civilization or religion. Because the education system was based on noble thoughts and noblecurriculum.I want to draw your attention to an extract from the minute written by Sir T.B Macaulay toBritish parliament dated 2nd February 1835 about what type of education system is required inIndian sub-continent to replace the Muslim education system.He stated

“We must at present do our best to form a class who may be interpreters between us and themillions whom we govern, --a class of persons Indian in blood and color, but English in tastes, in

opinions, in morals and in intellect”

This was and this is the plan and mission of this so called education system for which you areready to die, for which UNO takes you to their office to produce more and more Asians in blood but English in taste, to produce more and more Africans in color but English in opinion, to produce more and more non English people but English in morale. This so called education madeObama, the mass murder, your ideal.

isn’t it?

Why they want to make all human beings English? because Englishmen are the staunchsupporters and slaves of Jews. Do you know Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, the founder and symbol of English education in India was a freemasons.You say a teacher, a pen and a book can change the world, yes I agree with, but which teacher which pen and which book? It is to be specified, Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him said Iam sent as a teacher, and the book He sent to teach is Quran. So a noble and pious teacher with prophetic curriculum can change the world not with satanic or secular curriculum.

You have given the example that once a journalist asked a student that why a talib afraid of thiseducation he replied a talib d

idn’t know what was in this book

The same I say to you and through you to whole world that why they afraid from the book of Allah because they don’t know what is in it.Taliban want to implement what is in the book of ALLAH and UNO want to implement whatthey have in man-made books. We want to connect the world to their creator through the book of Allah and UNO want to enslave the world to few evil creatures.You have talk about justice and equality from the stage of and unjust institution, the place whereyou were standing uttering for justice and equality, all the nations are not equal there, only fivewicked states have the veto power and rest of them are powerless, dozens of time when all theworld untied against the Israel only one veto was enough to press the throat of justice.The place you were speaking to the world is heading towards new world order, I want to knowwhat is wrong the old world order? They want to establish global education, global economy,global army, global trade, global government and finally global religion. I want to know is thereany space for the prophetic guidance in all above global plans? Is there any space for Islamicsharia or Islamic law to which UN call inhumane and barbaric?You have talk about attack on polio team, would you explain why the then American foreignsecretary of state Henry Kissinger, a Jew, said in 1973 to reduce the third world population by80%.Why the sterilization and eugenics programs are running in different countries in one wayor another under the umbrella of UNO. More than 1 million Muslim women have been sterilizedin Uzbekistan forcibly without their consent.Bertrand Russell writes in his book the impact of science on society,


diet, injections andinjunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable and any serious criticism of power that be willbecome psychologically impossible


This is why we have the reservation on so called poliovaccination program.You say Malala day is not your day it is the day of every person who has raised voice for their rights, I ask you why such a day in not assigned to Rachel Corrie, only because the bulldozer wasIsraeli? Why such a day in not assigned to Affia Siddique because the buyers are Americans?Why such day is not assigned to Faizan and Faheem because the killer was Raymond Davis?Why such a day in not assigned to those16 innocent afghan women and children who were shotdead by an American Robert Belas because he was not a talib.I ask you and be honest in reply, if you were shot but Americans in a drone attack, would worldhave ever heard updates on your medical status? Would you be

called ‘daughter of the nation?

Would the media make a fuss about you? Would General Kiyani have come to visit you andwould the world media be constantly reporting on you? Would you were called to UN? Would aMalala day be announced?More than 300 innocent women and children have been killed in drones attacks but who cares because attackers are highly educated, non-violent, peaceful Americans.

I wish, the compassion you learnt from Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him should be learnt by Pakistan Army so they could stop shedding of Muslim blood in FATA and Baluchistan. Iwish, the compassion you learnt from Prophet Jesus should be learnt by USA and NATO so theyshould stop shedding blood of innocent Muslims across the world and I wish the same for followers of Buddha to stop killing of innocent unarmed Muslims in Burma, and Sri Lanka andwish the same for Indian army to follow Gandhi jee and stop genocide in Kashmir, And yes, Thefollowers of bacha khan, the ANP has an example of non-violence in their five years regime inKPK province, for example Swat, where a single shot was not fired and we witnessed thefollowers of bacha khan implemented the philosophy of nonviolence in its true soul, withsupport of jets, tanks and gunships.at the end I advise you to come back home, adopt the Islamic and pushtoon culture, join anyfemale Islamic madrassa near your home town, study and learn the book of Allah, use your penfor Islam and plight of Muslim ummah and reveal the conspiracy of tiny elite who want toenslave the whole humanity for their evil agendas in the name of new world order.All praises to Allah the creator of the Universe.15 July 2013

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

Adnan Rasheed can go ahead and find the nearest cliff and then proceed to jump off it!!

Malala should remain in Britain and eventually gain citizenship.

If Altaf Hussain can get British backing than it would be a crime not to do the same for Malala

u sure u dont agree with anything? not even one point?

Re: Adnan Rasheed’s letter to Malala Yousufzai

Here is an adult convicted criminal trying to justify to a 16 year old why she deserved to get shot in the head! :rolleyes:

Terrorists are deranged on every level. And these people are the ones everyone wants to talk peace with.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

Anyone who isnt YOU, would realize how full of sh1t he is.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

sorry rong entry

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

Malala was one girl, for start let Adnan Rasheed convince his fellow talebans to stop blowing up other Malala's in the streets. A few schools were blown up as they are used as hideouts, but there are others which have been blown without any apparent reason.

Malala Yousafzai’s friends condemn Taliban letter as PR stunt - Telegraph

Re: Adnan Rasheed’s letter to Malala Yousufzai

Dear Taliban leader, thank you for your letter to Malala Yousafzai | Mohammed Hanif | Comment is free | The Guardian

Dear Adnan Rasheed,
I am writing to you in my personal capacity. This may not be the opinion of the people of Pakistan or the policy of the government, but I write to thank you in response to the generous letter you have written to Malala Yousafzai.** Thanks for owning up that your comrades tried to kill her by shooting her in the head. Many of your well-wishers in Pakistan had been claiming the Taliban wouldn’t attack a minor girl. They were of the opinion that Malala had shot herself in order to become a celebrity and get a UK visa. Women, as we know, will go to any lengths to get what they want. So thanks for saying that a 14-year-old girl was the Taliban’s foe.** And if she rolls out the old cliche that the pen is mightier than sword, she must face the sword and find it for herself.
Like you, there are others who are still not sure whether it was “Islamically correct or wrong”, or whether she deserved to be “killed or not”, but then you go on to suggest that we leave it to Allah.
There are a lot of people in Pakistan, some of them not even Muslims, who, when faced with difficult choices or everyday hardships, say let’s leave it to Allah. Sometimes it’s the only solace for the helpless. But most people don’t say leave it to Allah after shooting a kid in the face. The whole point of leaving it to Allah is that He is a better judge than any human being, and there are matters that are beyond our comprehension – may be even beyond your favourite writer Bertrand Russell’s comprehension.
Allow me to make another small theological point – again about girls. Before the advent of Islam, before the prophet gave us the holy book that you want Malala to learn again, in the times we call jahilia, people used to bury their newborn daughters. They probably found them annoying and thought it better to get rid of them before they learned to speak. We are told Islam came to put an end to such horrendous practices. If 1,400 years later, we have to shoot girls in the head in an attempt to shut them up, someone like Russell might say we haven’t made much progress.
Like you, I did a bit of research in Malala’s hometown in Swat valley, and I remember a wise journalist warning your commanders that the Taliban might get away with slitting people’s throats in public squares but not to try shutting down the girls’ school. The government practically handed over the valley to your comrades, but their rule didn’t even last for a few weeks because they ordered all women to stay home.
There was only one lesson to be learned: you can fight the Pakistani army; you can try and almost =39441&tx_ttnews[backPid]=547#.UegNA7_4PEV"]kill Pakistan’s commander-in-chief](http://mlm.jamestown.org/single/?tx_ttnewstt_news), as you so heroically did; you might wage a glorious jihad against brutal imperial forces. But you can’t pick a fight with the working women in your neighbourhood and hope to win. Those women may never get an audience at the UN but everyone – from cotton picker to bank teller – cannot be asked to shut up and stay home, for the simple reason that they won’t.
It has also been suggested that your letter represents the mainstream opinion in Pakistan. But don’t fall for this praise. You might think that a lot of people support your just fight, but there is a part of them that worries whether their girl will get the grades to get into to a good university. And if you tell them there is a contradiction there, they might tell you to leave it to Allah.
I’m not sure if such frank language is appreciated in the Taliban’s shura, but I’m sure, with your linguistic skills, you can phrase it better. I have a feeling that, like it or not, our women will kick arse.
Yes, we have heard all your arguments about how they are a weaker sex, they can’t be in the workplace because they are impure five days a month, and if they are good wives they are pregnant nine months a year; but whenever I look around I have this sinking feeling that they are going to kick arse. Mine and yours.
Don’t believe me? You may have seen the propaganda pictures of female pilots released by your former employer, Pakistan’s air force. Some of them have started to fly fighter aircraft. Like you, I’m of the firm belief no good has ever come out of the Pakistani army’s misadventures. But just think of the day when one of those female pilots decides to *not *leave it to Allah.

So Taliban think that anyone who speaks against them deserve to die?
Hmmm did they and mqm go to the same school or what?

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

a taleban commander has actually owned up the attack which was being denied by conspiracy theorists a few months ago. The attack is horrifying no doubt, but more worrying was how they used Islam to justify the attack.

Letter was too long and I did not read the whole stuff, but did the give the justification of why they killed those eleven tourists in northern Pakistan?

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

This bat**** insane human garbage who is trying to justify the attempted killing of an innocent girl reaffirms my atheism.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

I like how he is articulate.
Two problems though.

He sound psychopath when talking about if she should be killed so casually.
Before asking people to leave education and go to madrissah, they need to translate all the math/physics/bio/chemistry eng
bio to urdu, then add those natural science to madrisah course, perhaps then they could ask people to go to madrisah.

I mean if you really want, be an education translation extremist first.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

Adnan Rasheed needs to get a life.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

fixed.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

I like to commend Muhammed Hanif for writing such an article..and thank you Ali for sharing with us. As everyone said.. he and his fellow terrorists have used religion to justify their action. I hope a day comes...when you and and your fellow comrades are hung to death..

Re: Adnan Rasheed’s letter to Malala Yousufzai

this statement is correct…hard to believe it but do an experiment…print urdu version of adnan’s letter (available on net) and go talk to pakistani masses in any capacity (read the letter to them…your driver, your mali, your cook or even go talk to educated folks) ..majority will support adnan’s viewpoint..yes those masses will find it hard to support 14 yr old killing but they will 100% support the points raised by adnan… for example, every pakistani that i have spoken to to believes that taliban only blast those schools where army is hiding…

to me, this confused mindless radicalization of pakistani masses is the most dangerous aspect…and no sign of any improvement…pakistan has become a living pagal khana…pagal khana is different from a jail khana…in pagal khana for most part no sane person comes to visit and pagals are not allowed to go outside…they simply sit in that pagal khana and keep talking to themselves about some baseless stuff…that is exactly what pakistan has become..no international comes to pakistan and no country gives visas to our masses..so we are living in our own pagal khana with our own conspiracy theories producing adnan rashids..!

believe me there are many many more educated adnan rashids among us!!!

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

That is so true. I remember people & lawyers (educated?) cheering for Salman Taseer's killer & throwing flowers at him. I was thinking there is something unbelieving wrong with that picture & that entire society had lost its collective mind.

Re: Adnan Rasheed's letter to Malala Yousufzai

The behaviour of Pakistanis was at the best display when Malala was shot. Taleban had proudly owned up the incidence and brought out examples from Hadith and other religious events to prove their point.

Where as their supporters were creating confusion. Taleban shot her, taleban did not shoot her. Taleban cannot shoot her, it is definitely black water. Her father was a CIA agent working on some Jewish agenda to secularise people in Swat therefore she deserved to be shot. No no she was not shot. Didn't you see the pictures after the attack. This is all a drama to malign Pakistan. See no one makes a fuss when people are killed in drones, and now only one girl is shot and so much noise.
