oh bhai logo, Taliban never wrote the letter, it was a conspiracy by Black Water to say it was in-fact Taliban who attempted to kill her, look at the “stamp” on envelope in which it was mailed, it was not posted from Pakistan.
True that Taliban have disavowed this letter. That Rasheed guy said that the attack was an accident and that Malala will be spared if she comes back. But the true "champions of Islam, Taliban now say that they have no remorse for what they did, and they will try to kill her yet again if she ever returns.
Matter of the fact is that main concerns about globalization (secular schooling, media propaganda, vaccines etc) are actually raised by the intellectuals in West. I don't see any madrassah taught men and women writing books on these issues, unlike their Western counterparts. Although, these intellectuals in West who have learnt to think outside the box are in a small number...and majority of people share the similarity with madrassah taught people which is total obedience and not questioning the state and authorities.
The madrassah education of past in Islamic societies they talk about was nothing like the modern wahabi funded madrassahs of today.
**So I think this is where Adnan Rasheed, Taliban and other Jihadi groups are wrong:
**They believe in Combatant Jihad...Combatant Jihad against globalization and secularization. And that's why the jihadis will never be able to win this war of ideas with weapons and irrationality.
I believeTaliban and khawarij alikes in Syria and Mali burning libraries and destroying shrines are going to get buried soon under their own rage and anger. I hope they do. They have done more damage to Islam than the Westernization and globalization and fascist liberalism.
