Taliban Burn Down Three More Girls' Schools In Pakistan


Get this - after yesterday's burning of three more girls' schools in Pakistan, that makes a total of 60 girls' schools burned in total by the Taliban in the LAST THREE MONTHS in the Swat Valley of northwest Pakistan. The Pakistani people are finding out what the Afghan people found out many years ago and why over 90% of the Afghan people detest the Taliban. Here's some of the report out of AllheadlineNews:


Three more girls' schools have been torched and a hospital blown up by militants in Swat Valley of North West Pakistan.
The militants warned North West Frontier Province (NWFP) government of dire consequences for launching a military operation against them.
Authorities confirmed that Taliban militants torched girls' schools in Kishora village of Khwazakhela sub-division and Engaro Dheri area of Mingora Town. They also blew up a basic health unit on Malamjaba road.

Months ago, there was an interview with an American military commander comparing the military expertise of Iraqi Army forces and those of the Afghan security forces and I remember distinctly how the commander was quick to mention how slowly the Afghan forces were to "catch on" as they were educationally dormant compared to their Iraqi counterparts. This was always the plan of the Taliban in Afghanistan, to rob the people of education and knowledge and you can see by this report, this is a favorite target of the Taliban in Pakistan.

And it's no coincidence that these are girls' schools going up in flames. The Taliban's view of girls and women is straight out of the actions of pedophile Mo and the Dark Ages - the Taliban will not stand for young Pakistani women becoming educated.

You will also see in the report that the Taliban blew up a hospital in the same area...and these are the "people" that the new Pakistani government wants to protect from NATO forces.


Taliban Militants Burn 3 Girls' Schools, Blow Up Hospital In Pakistan

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AHN) - Three more girls' schools have been torched and a hospital blown up by militants in Swat Valley of North West Pakistan.
The militants warned North West Frontier Province (NWFP) government of dire consequences for launching a military operation against them.
Authorities confirmed that Taliban militants torched girls' schools in Kishora village of Khwazakhela sub-division and Engaro Dheri area of Mingora Town. They also blew up a basic health unit on Malamjaba road.
Education officials said that during last three months, 60 girls' schools have been burnt by militants in the conflict-ridden district.
At present, more than 20,000 Pakistan security forces are fighting the militants supporting Maulana Fazlullah, a hardliner cleric and Taliban Movement chief in Swat, Matta and Kabal sub-divisions.
Pakistan Military spokesman Athar Abbas claimed 15 Taliban militants died during military action on Sunday against the Taliban in the Ronyal area of the valley.
However, Taliban spokesman Muslim Khan rejected this claim and said 50 security force members were killed.
Khan also warned the NWFP government of intensified attacks on security personnel and public places for violating the May 21 peace agreement and for launching military operations against the Taliban.
Niaz Ahmad Khan, a local journalist told AHN that more than 25 civilians, mostly women children, were also been killed during the conflict between Pakistans security forces and Taliban militants in the last week.
