Pakistan: Taliban Attacks Girls’ School, One Policeman Killed…

Because a girl who can read and write is “un-Islamic.”

PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AFP) — A bomb attack on a girls’ school in northwest Pakistan on Tuesday killed a policeman, wounded eight others and destroyed a wall, police said.

The remote-controlled bomb was planted at the outer wall of the government-run middle school in the outskirts of Mardan town in troubled Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, which borders Afghanistan.

The bomb exploded after police arrived to investigate complaints about a suspicious plastic bag outside the school, which was closed at the time.

“One policeman was killed and eight other people including five civilians were wounded,” Zeshan Haider, Mardan police chief, told AFP by telephone.

Three policemen were also wounded but no pupils were hurt.

Haider said the target was the school.

“The outer wall of the school was also destroyed,” he added.

Islamist militants oppose co-education and have destroyed hundreds of schools, mostly for girls, in northwest Pakistan in recent years.

    Partisans / pagans / nimrodians have always considered education as their battleground / exclusive recruiting & propaganda platform and want to tightly control it to their theology … at the expense of all others …

    Carefully hear…
    Carefully consider…
    Carefully live…

    Katherine Zimmerman just asked very important question about al Shabaab, Ron Paul doesn’t address it at all, now Mitt also not addressing it except in generalities, now Wolf talking about Syria again, no one addressing the question of al Shabaab, what a shame since that will be a huge threat in future, now Perry follow up on Iran! The question was SOMALIA, as in not only strategic to Africa, but across from Yemen, which is in in the MIDDLE of the ARAB WORLD. These candidates sure do suck at foreign policy.

    sorry, placed my comment on wrong thread…about this article, this is quite terrible, but one question for us is whether US is helping or not with the problem, and if not can we or not. Personally, I think the best thing we could do would be to prioritize the survival of the US by checking the encroachment of Islam within our own country.

    Of course when we abandon the Afghan’s in order to spend that money saved on buying votes for Democon’s the Taliban will no longer prevent women and girls from getting an education by blowing up their schools and killing a few girls to do Allah’s will.
