If Malala survives, we will target her again: Taliban
A TTP spokesperson told The Express Tribune that this was a warning for all youngsters who were involved in similar activites and added that they will be targeted if they do not stop.
Malala was injured along with two other women when Taliban gunmen opened fire on a bus in Swat.
Yousufzai, who studies at Khushal Public School, was on her way home when the vehicle came under attack on Haji Baba Road. One of the other injured has been identified as Shazia and sources say the third was a teacher.
Taliban spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan said his group was behind the shooting.
"She was pro-West, she was speaking against Taliban and she was calling President Obama her idol," Ehsan said by telephone from an undisclosed location.
"She was young but she was promoting Western culture in Pashtun areas," he said, referring the main ethnic group in northwest Pakistan and southern and eastern Afghanistan.
DPO Swat Rasool Shah said that a search operation has been initiated in the area and a number of suspects have been arrested.
Malala was shifted to Saidu Sharif Medical Complex in Mingora immediately after the incident and later she was moved to Peshawar in an Army helicopter.
Doctors at the Saidu Sharif Medical Complex said that Malala was out of danger after the bullet penetrated her skull but missed her brain.
“A bullet struck her head, but the brain is safe,” said Dr Taj Mohammed.
“She is out of danger,” he added.
Dr Laal Noor, from the same hospital, confirmed that the bullet broke her skull but missed her brain.
“The bullet struck her skull and came out on the other side and hit her shoulder,” he told AFP.
After getting done with Malala's check-up, the doctors said that she might be sent abroad for treatment.
As the news made rounds, hundreds of people flocked outside the hospital, willing to donate blood to Malala.
Two bullets hit Malala -- one in the head and another between the neck and chest.
Malala's friend, Shazia, while narrating the incident to Express News said, "When we were coming back from school, unidenfitied men approached our bus and asked us to identify Malala, when we told him, he opened fire."
The Government of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa has taken a notice of the incident.
Hailing from Mingora, the 14-year-old Malala struggled for restoring peace in Swat and education for girls in the region for which she was awarded the National Peace Award by former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani.
When the Taliban had banned education for females in the district, she kept a diary for the British Broadcasting Corporation and wrote about the misdeeds of militants.
Yousufzai also remained a speaker for the Child Assembly in Swat, which works for child rights in the district. Later on, she was awarded the first National Peace Award by the government of Pakistan on December 19, 2011 for rendering courageous services to promote peace during the mayhem.

The taliban are men that are ignorant, stupid men, that are afraid that women might learn to read the holy koran and find out that the koran does not say women have to stay uneducated and ignorant like the men would like them to be so they can treat women as slaves. Yes the taliban should be afraid of women being educated. They will kick the mens butts and they will feel what women are feeling today. If it was up to me I would castrate every one of those taliban men, bury them and have all the girls stone them, to show them how it feels.
@habibullah:
Go complain to Allah, it is HE who has given so much attention to Malala. It is HE who decides who gets fame and who gets zilat.
Allah has decided Taliban deserve Zilat. They just dont know it.
undoubtely we pray for her fast recovery but about other those innocent people who are being targeted everyday.Arent those who were killed in baluchistan university bus attack in pursuit of education, justice equality??????
@john: It is Afghans that are hosting Maulana Fazlullah in Kunar province, It is India that is supporting the Afghan government. It is Afghanistan and India that are helping these criminals.
@AGSA: you must be an Indian, our Military are our heros, dont you dare post rubbish on here again about our heros.
Those days of Mullah soldiers are gone with Zia Ul Haq.
May Allahbless her with long life and prove the shooters wrong because u say that nothing can happen against the wishes of Allah
M ay Allah bless her and prove the shooters wrong
How can any one shoot a child only heartless man we thinkbefore we kill any animal but she is not animal
@Dushmann: Like they say first they came for the blacks, then they came for the jews I didnt say anything because I was neither. Then they came for me. Thats exactly whats happening in pakistan. I am so glad that India was never declared a Hindu country and chose to be secular. I am a Hindu btw
Why do Jahilan cover thier faces like women? They should start wearing Burqa. They attack behind the back, they never fight face to face like men.
@Amanzeb Khan: I am sorry but Imran Has acted disgracefully in this episode, he has refused to denounce the Jahilan because he says he fears they will attack his workers, then he get rid of cowards in his party, this way any group can threaten to kill his workers, will he stop saying the truth about anyone. Instead of showing bravery that we will not be cowered by terrorists and we will speak the truth, this guy defends the Taliban.
Ironically it is the drones that are killing those whom he is afraid of killing his workers, so the drones are basically protecting his people.
I am sorry for the people dying in drone attacks but the drones are not targetting innocents like the Taliban are, the drones are eliminating these child killers, and I support it.
What about thousands of other malalas killed in Wazirstan everyday??? Are they not humanbeings????
MALALA You are really a brave girl. Those attackers are very coward who affraid from a 14 years old girl. Very very shame on you attackers. MALALA god will help you and recover you soon. May you live long. I always pray to god for your health,safety and bright future.
Malala is neither a victim nor an innocent bystander. She is a courageous fighter for her rights, a little warrior who fights against the forces of Evil. She is an emblem for the seeker of knowledge, for equality, truth, happiness, tolerance, compassion and justice against those who are Intolerant, suppressors of Truth, deniers of Equality, cruel twisted beings whose breasts fill with hate. Malala should be the war cry of those who would be loyal to Good and destroy Evil.
Malala is daughter of pakistan i hv so mny malala like students in my free education school from such area swat wazeeristan hazara . I hv same malala mission for free education students living under poverty Hajra bibi public school Itthad town karachi
@Zubair: Well said, I couldnt have said it better
Grown men with guns are scared of a little child.
they are the definition of COWARDS
No body know that who shot Malala nd her frnds but We r still praying for her nd her frnds health.v all r peace lover not war lover I think Pak army have to collect all the weapons from people nd they have to protect the lives of people.
Where is OIC ? What is human right?
These Taliban spend more time killing fellow Muslims than killing the so-called infidels.
I hope she can get back to what she's doing soon. The sooner she gets back, the sooner the Taliban gets crushed.
Now many Malalas will go forward with more strength
Back to the stone age.
SHAME ON RELIGIOUS PARTIES, speak clearly against these JAHILAN, Dont make excuses, dont say mixed things, say clearly this is an evil act and these criminals should be destroyed.
Shame on Saudis and the Saudi religious authorities for their SILENCE.
Thank you USA for speaking against these ZALIMAN, thank you UN and thank you thank you everyone who spoke up.
Shame on cowards, hyenas and sheep like Muslims who are silent.
I call on the Pakistan Army to attack these criminals with their FULL FORCE.
These criminals are being supported by Afghans in Kunar, Please get ready to expel all Afghanis because their backward mindset is spreading in our streets.
so 14 year old girls make the taliban tremble...
Talibanies are cowards first they are scared of a fourteen year old and now they hide behind their religion to hide their panic...run run and run but you can't run from your fears..
The brutal murders and violence by the Taliban show no signs of abating. Suddenly, they throw a bomb here or a grenade there in crowded places, killing and maiming people, or they resort to firearms to shoot as they like. But what is not disclosed to our Pakistani people is that these Taliban have not appeared suddenly from some unknown source; in fact they have been in the making for decades in the political anarchy that has prevailed in Pakistan. The major players in this game have been Pakistani politicians and religious leaders (or ringleaders ) of religious parties like the Jamaat-e-Islami, for instance, who have misused the name of Islam for their political ends and have misled the vast majority of Pakistani people that a pure Islam was being re-introduced.
Thus the field was open for such ‘mujahiddin of Islam’ and the custodians of mosques to brainwash common people into believing that the dawn of Islamic rejuvenation was just around the corner. The Islamisation programme by the sadistic dictator General Zia-ul-Haq was a natural growth of that process that had started long ago. That process had matured and has been showing its results in the shape of sectarian versions of Islam, violence against religious minorities (Ahmadis, Christians, Shias, Hindus, etc.), where the ‘pure’ Muslims, the mujahiddin and the Taliban, are doing Allah’s work and fiery clerics spouting their venom against fellow human beings.
Can these forces be stopped by an official decree or praying for peace? The answer is No. Much has gone wrong in Pakistan in the name of Islam. It will take much more than pious wishes and prayers to remove the evil forces that are terrorising the people of Pakistan.
Now beasts are afraid of 14 year old child
Condemnation by the politicians is one thing, where are the mass rallies and protests through out the Muslim world by the people, Mullahs and Imams condemning these atrocities on 14 year old children by unrepentant savages all in the name of religion? The only way the TTP will change their tune is if the people stand with their leaders, support them through demonstrations and recognize the TTP misogynist ways are no longer relevant in the 21st Century- even in Pakistan.
Get well soon my brave child....you are here to create history! It is indeed amazing that you have been doing excellent jobs though you are too young. I salute you for your unputdownable bravery and interest in education. Someday your nation will be able to bring back sunny days -" Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high Where knowledge is free Where the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls Where words come out from the depth of truth Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way Into the dreary desert sand of dead habi.(By Rabindranath Tagore). Lotsa love and blessings from India. Thanks to other Pakistani open minded persons also....keep the flag of optimism and humanity high.
find the real threat behind it .i dont think its the real TALIBAAN TALKING/DOING IT HERE
@rick: Its the other way around, pakistan supported taliban and destroyed a stable Afghanistan first.
More Pakistani people need to show the same courage, more importantly Pakistani Govt and army need to take charge and get rid of these Taliban until then there is no salvation for the pakistani people. Pakistan also needs to look at blasphamy crimes and stop killing each other just because people have differnet beliefs. There is no room for hatered or else it will tear the country apart as it is doing right now. In my opinion there is more of the same to come because I dont see an uprise or the desire to make a change.. I would also like to see the end of Mullahs they are the worst of creatures on the earth and I am sorry to say that pakistani people have not figured that out yet..Pakistani people please wake up, I pray for the country daily that may Allah save this country and its people from the evil people. But that will happen if people will wake up and do something also. May Allah be with you all and keep you safe from harm..
@Naeem Siddiqui:Imran Khan has completely lost it. He is a confused and weak man. Can't help himself nor others.

It's because of God she was injured in the first place. @CallinArmy-Khi:
A new page in the short history of Pakistan has to be written with the pure and pious blood oozing out from her injuries
This is so sad. A 14 year old girl trying to make her country a better place is gunned down. Where is the respect for human life? There is apparently none, anybody that disagrees with them must be killed. It's very telling that they are so threatened by a 14 yr old that they will not engage in dialogue with her, they just shoot. I hope she recovers fully and lives a long and healthy life despite this and is able to keep working to improve conditions in Pakistan for all people. Maybe one day in the future this type of thing will be relegated to the history books.
If TTP will not give a call to kill all these jallaad then it will be sure TTP is just an umbrella organizstion for these terrorists and deserve to be treated alike .
Dear Taliban,
I am a Muslim just like you, I am a Sunni just like you. I do not go to mazars or believe in practices which "we" call shirk. But that's where it stops. My beliefs are my own and i do not go around killing people to believe in what i believe in. I do not force others to do what i do. to think what i think.
I am an average Pakistani with a moderate salary and all i can say to you is keep trying. We (Pakistanis) will not let you win. We are much stronger than you as a nation, in terms of education, in terms of "dunya" and "huqooq-ul-ibad"
Ironically, the ideology you use to raise torches and burn our country, will be the cause of your own destruction. this is the first time ever ive written in a newspaper comment section and i hope someone from your pathetic group reads this... and what you have done to this poor girl has prompted me to make a decision.
I will start patrolling my neighborhood in the night and where ever i find any traces of you i will destroy them. Soon when i can show that if i can clean my neighborhood, so can everyone else.
I have no hope from my government, from my military, from my local imams.
I will find you, and i will kill you. Kill you all. ;)
We will not rest until your defaming of our religion will end and your existence obliterated.
(now i take back all what i said about killing you (for now) and other traceable reasons & deny my intentions publicly)... but this is the road you are traveling and where you will end.
we will not stand by and watch you slaughter our Shia, Barelvi, Ismaili, Bohri, qadiani, Hindu, Christian, and Parsi countrymen.
Our Islam is from Allah, yours is from Satan.
Peace be upon you, more importantly, peace be upon us all.
Funny how these people believe that there is an invisible man in the sky who loves his creations but orders to kill them when they dont follow him. So much for how merciful He is!
we pray for the quick recovery of malala.please pray for those thousands infants and children who had died in drone attacks and their bodies were torn into pieces.
If the Pakistan army really want to wipe them out they can do it in a days time about time for the army to step up and carpet bomb the place,and if they can't then you better start praying today it was Malala tomorrow it might be your child.
much strength and health for this brave girl from Havana - Cuba
@Desi: Sorry, but IK is doing the same. He take minutes to denounce Zardari, Shareefs, etc for any act ......yes, any act! (2 wrongs does not make 1 right) :)
can anybody tell me that how is it possible that Taliban have an office in the middle east and the Americans can negotiate with them and when imran khan tells the Pakistani people to do the same what the Americans are doing you start blaming him like it is his fault that this poor girl was attacked by some psychos
May ALLAH bless her with awesome health, Ameen.
Taliban you are the biggest enemy Pakistan has faced. InshaAllah there will be a day when the people of Pakistan will drive you and the US out of our beautiful country
Well this proves that the taliban are not muslims. And not pushtoons, either - real pushtoons would never target children or females.
I wonder why, inspite of overwhelming evidence, no cleric has come forward to declare the taliban non-muslims.
@ABC: What actions Kayani took when his soldiers were inhumanly tortured, beheaded and video was posted on internet by TTP for the whole world to watch ?? Not only Pakistan but the whole world is bewildered at the improper response of your military to many such atrocities committed by Taleban for the past two years.
This is sick and very sad that god fearing islamists can do this to children. We need to introduce the death penalty and execute such ppl without trial. What has this country become!?
Few of you people (commenting) are really sick..... Have Imran Khan done this attack.... crazy people bringing politics in every issue every time....
@Nadeem:
@Naeem Siddiqui: How did you know that it was an act of Taliban?
Are you literate enough to read the following unassisted? It is there right at the beginning of the story.
The Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) which attacked National Award Peace winner Malala Yousafzai on Tuesday have said that they will target her again if she survives because she was a “secular-minded lady”.
A TTP spokesperson told The Express Tribune that this was a warning for all youngsters who were involved in similar activites and added that they will be targeted if they do not stop.
God give her health and a long life !!! the attackers wont be caught as the situation is always but at least Government must do something to stop such activities in future...increase forces or whatever they think is the best solution...such children who are working hard to develop their nation should be commended and praised !!!
Such a barbaric and coward act, how can these people even call themselves muslims, Islam forbids killing children, women and elderly even in a battle field. May she be blessed with speedy recovery and may Allah grant her a long healthy and successful life.
Really, really sad. Really, really sad.
we need a Kamal Attaturk. This is absolutely un-acceptable
Enough is Enough.... COAS should make a decisive move to eliminate the enemies of Pakistan who are sitting on our heads...These are coward people. They are barbarians, coward and mentally sick people. PLEASE OUR JAWANS, SEND TALIBANS TO HELL.... or rot them in Afghanistan...Apprehend their supporters also. IT IS TIME TO MAKE A DECISION WHO ARE OUR ENEMIES....STOP DRONE ATTACKS ALSO..... ALLAH MAY SAVE MALALA.. Amin...
Talibans have no mother or sister or wife,who gave them birth.
@G. Din: Man for a person with such strong dislike for Pakistan you sure spend a lot of time reading a Pakistani newspaper. I welcome people from everywhere to contribute and post comments, but you have nothing but nastiness to contribute. Have you nothing else to do with your time? What is it you want? Why don't you spread your nastiness elsewhere or keep your comments for your fellow Indians since you have nothing of substance to contribute. Your education has done nothing for you as you are still a narrow minded spiteful human fueled by hate. Don't like Pakistanis? You have my permission to get lost. Cheers.
Talibanies are cowards...ruling with guns simply shows their fear of unknown and insecurities...and only thing they have been successful in is that they have alienated Muslims of the world ...no one wants to trust even the good Muslims, its ultimately their whole community that suffers
Imran Khan already condemned this cowardly act. He tried a different approach that might not practically work. Anyway give him credit for taking some action rather than sitting around and just complaining and doing nothing about it. This is the time for action. Now or never.
Sweet Angel, Wishing you a speedy recovery. God bless you.
Though they are not going to leave Afghanistan soon but just to validate their presence the people who are deploring the act of Jahilabans should come forward and demand more and more Drone attack even inside the Pakistan .
@rick: remove afghans? the main ethnic group of pkhtunkwa is afghan so how can you remove them from their homeland. Pakistan and every other Muslim country was created by the imperialists. Ignorant people like you are the reason there are division in the Islamic world and unfortunately there is a lot of you out there.
They are not Muslim. These killer have no religion and thinks that by killing one malala, they will silence her voice. Absolutely not, more malalas will come and these shaiteen (Devils) will never ever achieve their goals. Shame to you all those associated with action.
And Imran Khan wants to have peace dialogue with these barbarian...!!
She must get better soon. Wish you best of health Malala. These people who did this to you have rotten minds.
@True Muslim Paki: What are you going to negotiate with TTP? Your right to keep your head attached to your body?
anyone who thinks that barbarians will be not be barbarians if just the US leaves Afghanistan, they need to think again. If anything , once the US leaves , the barbarians will be fully focussed on Pakistan.
@Imran: Of course not! Like the saying goes in our country, "Denial is the best policy".
@ khurram awan First of all, you are advising your friend from manhattan to visit Afghan history before 15th century and then you mention ABDALI who was in 18th century. I think you need to visit history books first. Secondly Afghanistan at that time was huge ( not in it's present shape ) it did had a vast agricultural land in the north , in the south and the east ( Peshawar ), Third the afghans were known as BUTSHAKAN not as temple looters and only went to India `to convert your forefathers to Islam . Fourth if ABDALI was a looter than why name weapons with his name. Fifth you have mentioned Ranjit Singh defeat but you forgot the PANIPAT ( where the Sikhs were slaughtering you and you called ABDALI for help). There is a long list of answers for you but I cut it short by saying that why don't you call your forefathers cowards who could not defend their land before you calling ABDALI aggressor.
@Nadeem: Right, couldn't have be Taliban. I know, I know, it was the CIA, RAW, ABC, DEF, XYZ, ETC, KIA, and the notorious CBK. Right!!!
I support the Army - you are the saviors. But every Pak Army member from Jawan to General should hold his head in shame and do something about this atrocity!
What are our taxes useful for - if you cannot even protect our daughters from such gruesome atrocities!
I expect General Kiyani to issue a statement and demand blood of the TTP people who did this.
Blame PPP, PTI or N-leaguers... but Talibans are Gift of our truely beloved enlighted moderated Musharaf ! what was he doing when these barbarians were forming an alliance ? dancing to noor jahan's tunes ?
lets fight against these evils who want to disgrace Islam and Pakistan.
Death and eternal torture in Hell to all Taliban, everywhere!
@Bloom: Please recognize Talibansand their supporters
Sir, will you please explain who should recognize whom? Usually sovereign states are recognised or their legitimate governments. What state do Taliban represent, Pakistan or Afghanistan? and what is the territory controlled by Taliban and their supporters that you are asking to be recognized.
@Nadeem: How did you know that it was an act of Taliban?
Respected sir, AND how do you know that Malala has been attacked by some entity other than Taliban. So far, only a certain Ehsan ULLah Ehsan has claimed the gruesome act. and that very beast has been in touch with dozens of KP journalists over the years, proffering Taliban version of different events.
how many will these insane people kill? they will kill one, thousands more will rise up!
I think enough of talking. Time to hit these savages head-on. If army is not ready to do its job then time for sane people of Pakistan to pick up guns and go after these hooligans. This is the battle for survival and we should wipe out these savages from the land of pure. Wake up before it is too late.
@Alamgir: You say that "no Muslim could do an act like this"!!! PLEASE provide the "plenty of evidence that this is a RAW-CIA-Mossad Conspiracy" so we can all laugh at you ignorance!
the innocent girl just want peace and education..its awful incident...taliban who thinks they r everything..in fact they r most weak....they r just insane.they can't be muslims even humans.they representing islam in a wrong way.
People keep this in mind these cowards talibans are supported by saudis, Jamaat islami? and Imran khan. Army and people should stand up against these animals and finish them. Ban all parties who are directly or indirectly favor Taliban.
This is just barbaric... I was following this little girl's story since she won the award... Innocent, beautiful, talented little girl she is... Being an Indian I dont know if my word counts or not. But it really hurts seeing the condition of Pakistan society and the way the situation is going worse.. Please do something..I won;t say to to hold weapon but at least the political class, media houses and military should go after these terrorists..
I wish we could trace these so call 'Taliban spokesman' callers that inform news about their new sins drop a bomb on them and blow them into pieces.
God created some horrific monsters that look like human beings. Let the people who always thought Taliban were good for nation come forward and see these crimes against humanity. What if she was your child?
my God.........have some shame Talibans....you tried to murder an innocent young girl.....a person who was trying to spread peace amongst your people and promote education. For Gods sake...STOP attacking who ever you want to.....you COWARDS
God bless her.I don,t have words to describe my shock. May Allah Almighty will protect you.Ameen
May God bring her back to health.. It is definite that Malala's Life has writine script of Death for these Brutals Extremist , socalled TTP
Why cnat we get these savage TTP so called spokes persons.. start form some where.. our govt is too busy filling their pockets to do any thing about TTP
when taleban were suspected of assassinating the late former PM Benazir, their spokesman said that it was against their interpretation of Islam to ever attack a woman - so now with this how can we believe them ?
My heart is crying, I can,t stop my tears. Please pray for a brave Pakistani girl.
TTP just answer, how many girls or boys will you kill, who promote education and denounce your agenda of imposed Islam. God is great and so is his vision... You can't love humans more than the God.
forget his statement. either its the media who has got wrong information. it cant be ttp. its does not make sense. she was a child. im more to that its somebody else or foreigns power who have done it. ttp is not that stupid. they know that this is not the solution at all. actually what have they gain by doing this? nothing. its definitely the foreigners powers. by offering her help does not mean that americans are helping us. for them lives have no importance. May Allah give her shifa and her family sabr.
@Shab: You r rong
I pray to ALLAHto save her life .
There should be drone missiles, and each should have the name of a terrorist leader written on it. Prayers for Malala, the girl who defied her circumstances with her raw courage, while a leader, a grown man, capitulated to these thugs without a thought.
Allah bless our sister malala sham on those who shot our pakhtoon sister sham
@rick:
lol, these are Pakistani Nationals according to your government. They are also "strategic assets." Learn to take some responsibility. You have a culture that see's terrorism as a projection of influence. Remember, what goes around comes around. And so does that finger that you point.
my prayers are with you...whole nation is praying for malala ..don't give up...we were and we will never be afraid of these talibans..hold up..this is not islam for sure to kill a 14year kid..is this what Holy Prophet(S.A.W) taught us...c'mon think before you do
why cant we just nuke these basterds?
Please blame it on the drone attacks now.
@rick: I think it is other way around.
I hate Taliban..
@Umber: ehsanullah ehsan is just a mouth piece. By all means, kill the man. He'd certainly do the same deeds if ordered, but it won't stop what you see him doing. It'd just be another person carrying the same script. Another would fill his position immediately.
This might sound cliched but this inicident after Arfa Kaleem's death, they seem pre-planned by someone above Taliban.
This is pathetic! Taliban feel threatened by a 14 year old child! Yes, kill her.... kill everyone who comes in your way. But you CANNOT stop us. We are NOT pro-USA. We dont idolise Obama. We are pro-peace, pro- education, pro-progress and we will never achieve all these while you skunks are alive. I say youth get up! fear not these rascals for Allah will see to them!
@kaalchakra: "Sad to see the forces of Gandhi-Baccha Khan inspired religious extremism hurting the Great Quaid’s progressive and rationalist vision. :("
The murderous Taliban who attack teenage school going girls are inspired by the non-violent Gandhi? That's a new one. Honestly you are not trolling well kaal chakraji.
May Allah bless her with complete recovery, a long and healthy life - Ameen. Question for Mr. Imran Khan - the so called leader, what do you think about this, you have time and again been the spokesman in favour of talibans. Not even a politically correct statement?
Shame on Taliban. May ALLAH Bless awl
AstaghfarAllah! Shame on Taliban. Whereeee does it say attack children in OUR scriptures. You are a disgrace to Muslims and humanity worldwide. The government and our BELOVED Army should do something about them and find some sort of solution ASAP to the growing terrorism.... why does IK support the Taliban?
Taliban: Low than lowliest of creatures! Rabid dogs! Their apologist are no better.
My fellow Pakistanis, please calm down and try to see reality. No Muslim could do an act like this. Our sellout politicians won't tell you but there is plenty of evidence that this is a RAW-CIA-Mossad conspiracy to force our army to attack our ghazis who are our first and last line of defence against India. I was told this by both Gen. Gul and Dr. A.Q. Khan.
This is the wake up call that all Pakistanis needs. People from all walks of society should come out in peaceful demonstration in her name. We should rally her cause. Pressure the government /army / establishment. We need to send a clear message to the perpetrators that Pakistanis still have some morality left in them. All political parties should unite in this cause. The Media needs to do its part. I think this Facebook group should have vigil for her.
My eyes are filled with tears, and my heart with sorrow and anger. It is not just an attack on Malala. We are all victims here of this barbarism and brutality of the Taliban. We need to wipe out Taliban scum and their supporters and sympathazier. No mercy, no prisoners. If we don't act with courage now, there will not be a future for our country and nation.
Animals. Barbarians. I wonder why the Almighty is being so patient with certain people.
I don't understand. Are all the educated civilized people of Pakistan dead? A bunch of uneducated buggers are holding your country for ransom and you're all watching news at home?
They call us liberals fascists when we condemn Taliban. Well, this is what your taliban do.
Already I read comments from elsewhere that they are not Taliban and how others are destabilizing Pakistan.
Goood luck pakistan - if you have any left.
All my prayers with Malala. She is an asset for Pakistan. It saddens me deeply that filthy barbarians like Taliban are targeting innocent children in the name of religion. Don't they have even one ounce of humanity, they are not even humans!
This is condemnable act by the sinners.they are not only the taliban but actually the agencies (foreign as well as local) to get their own political and regional objectives. Such type of groups are actually penetrating violence and such low standard activities and the aim is to assist the international objectives and for this they are simply ruining the innocent Pakistani. May Allah show us right path.
Does anyone know why the bullet did not enter her brain ? Simple: her brain was clean and clear with pure thoughts and love and kindness for human beings, and thus deflected the crap put by Taliban , and ALLAH SWT protects those who fight against cruelty and hypocricy.
@Gerry:
"I hope we can develop nukes that can systematically take these coward.s to their 12 virgins as quickly as possible."
Dear Gerry your count is not correct, Taliban are after 72 virgins not 12
Malala who is a minor girl is braver than many Pakistanis who took on these barbarians by their horns. Shame on majority of Pakistanis who are so afraid of these cowards and refuse to come in open to protest against their barbarous acts. Time has come for a common Pakistani to raise their voice against these cowards who have killed thousands of innocents in cold blood, beheaded soldiers and now vowing to kill a small child because she wants to study further. Rallies and protests should be held all over Pakistan against TTP to condemn this incident. I am sure Imran Khan, Nawaz Sharif, PPP and religious party leaders will not lead the protests fearing their lives but common people should hold rallies in their own areas and give a strong message to TTP that enough is enough and any more killings and cowardly attacks will not be tolerated. These protests will also boost up the military morale to take action against the TTP who have so far not launched any decisive operation against them.
Sad to see the forces of Gandhi-Baccha Khan inspired religious extremism hurting the Great Quaid's progressive and rationalist vision. :(
Attention General Kiyani! It is The Kharijite Emirate of North Warizistan vs The Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Please act!
Oh GOD , add my remaining life to MALALA life + Her own life + GOD all of Yours Blessing Blessed the Child with long and healthy life.
thousands gather to donate blood to Malala. How many go to help taliban when they are hurt. This goes to show that people love Malala and hate Taliban as they should be. taliban are a menace and a personification of devil.
May Allah keep us in his hifz o aman from mullahism. Heart breaking news. They are worst form of living beings.
God willing, she will survive and defeat you!
Will Mr Imran Khan condemn this shameful act?? NO never
@naeem khan Manhattan,Ks: Brother you said Pukhtuns are not known for killing unarmed people Kindly revisit the history. Before the 15th century many Afghans were Nomads and since they do not farm or grow anything so they resorted to looting the people of other regions and of course when Afghan looted the Golden Temple for Gold Sikhs were all unarmed. When Abdali attacked regions of Punjab then he killed all the local kings and he did not spared the Muslims until Ranjit Singh defeated him in a bad manner.. Still there is a famous saying in Punjab that " Jeera wi labbay kha lao ajjay. Abdali avey ga, sub kuch lai jaiyega ga tai kakh wi nai chaddi ga " In English " Whatever bread you have eat it today and dont store it for tomorrow otherwise it is obvious that Abdali will loot you until the next day.and will not spare anyone.
@KM: I am an Indian in USA and am willing to adopt her and give her the very best in life.
this is so disturbing.
To those supporting dialog: how do you negotiate with animals and butchers? The only way to talk to them is after defeating them comprehensively, annihilating their leadership completely, obliterating there sanctuaries, sources of funding, and support networks. Once ascendancy has been achieved, talk to the dis-armed remnants to bow to the state's writ or be thrown into jail for the rest of their lives.
Pathetic… the only thought haunts me what if such madness spread in whole Pakistan. Now, being in Lahore, it’s horrible to think even for a single minute about Such Taliban Pro culture in Punjab.
All the working Ladies Engineer/Doctors/Bankers, must apply for Immigration before the Taliban get hold on Punjab other wise we would be the firestone liable to be killed
Sick people. Will IK come out and say something against those he says are actually taking revenge?
now time for Imran khan to make an excuse and stop suporting g these subhuman beings who have been doctored by israeil agents
Very Sad!! This country is nurturing evil and killing goodness.The whole country is praying for your quick and speedy recoveryMalala I hope you will be recover very soon. God BlessYou
Shame on those who inflicted this horrendous act, May ALLAH (SWT) save her life and give her long life to serve her nation for years to come.
Will tsunami Khan have some shame and condemn these barbarians. More drone attacks please USA.
Greetings from North America- yeah, the Great Satan. Hope you got your new iPhone 5s.
If you are a supporter of suicide bombings and would allow your children to die to support your cause, may I suggest you allow them to live; and then in turn take your own life. If you are a male and live in fear that the female will some day become your equal- take your life now, because that day is coming.
Oppression is a sign of weakness. The man who commands a woman to wear a scarf or burka against her will is weak. If the woman chooses to, that is her right.
Killing a child for any reason, an unarmed person, or an innocent person is a cowardly act. We have technology on our side. I hope we can develop nukes that can systematically take these cowards to their 12 virgins as quickly as possible.
Immi Bhai needs to make another long march--this time in the right direction, against the real culprits, and for the right cause!
Malala every prayer in the world is with YOU:) Stay Strong, We are ALL here to support you! WE Mothers Have Had It with the Traumatization of OUR Children !! ALL Children are to be Protected by ALL Adults. Period. This World Has Gone To A DARK Place. THIS STOPS NOW. ENOUGH!!!!
Dear peace-loving citizens of Pakistan, What more do you need to open your eyes and see the cancer that is quickly eating away the fabric of your nation? Are you not ashamed to stand helplessly and watch as your sons and daughters are being slaughtered by this barbarians? What more does it take for you to break away the chains of submission and fight against the taliban and everyone who supports them? Dont you understand that by being silent, you are actually aiding these cave men in taking you back to the stone age? Despite being an Indian, it pains when a brave young girl is shot at just for upholding her fundamental right as a human being. Prayers from India sister. Come back and light up this dark nation, that is Pakistan!
May Allah give her the strenght to fight her pain. and may Allah show no mercy to these Godforsaken talibans, Ameen
This Eid onwards, make sure your cow hide goes to Edhi or Sailani. It must not - I repeat must not - reach a madressah. Your true Jihad this month.
I guess, Jihad against the Talibanisation is now due. And this jihad needs extermination of any physical or non physical existence of talibanisation. To start, we will first have to shut the mullahs mouths.
I am against Drone Attacks! I am for Carpet Bombing.
Where is Bilour now?!
Let's make a petition and ask Obama and USA to offer her asylum...for protection and also so that she can have the best possible education. Anyone willing to help with this?
Fight fire with Fire....Use the nukes where they should be. These Mullahs need to be wiped out, along with the Hameed Guls and the Hafiz Saeeds. And then we need to educate our people -Teach them the virtues of tolerance and humility, of hard work and taking personal responsibility as citizens of a free state. Too much to ask for? Damn right. They call this the 'Islamic' Republic. Nothing could be further from the truth....the TRUTH is what we have a problem with....
send her to Indian hospitals ... we are your neighbors
May God have his curse on these monsters!
brave girl....
Only a day earlier, the whole of Pakistan was sympathizing against Drones attacks. Today talibans have proved that they are not worthy of any sympathy. They should be kept pounding by drones. Imran should also say sorry to the nation for misleading them. One drone a day, keep the dirty taliban away.

The bitter truth is Its close but no cigar. We need few more brutal attack like this to change the public opinion to rally against Taliban. Until than expect few more like this in the future because that is the nature of the beast.
It should be noted that most of the brutal attack by Taliban is usually against female.
@Sir King Kong Bunty: Oh don't talk like that or else the wrath of PTI trolls will descend upon you.
This is what the Taliban and its supporters, hijdon ka fauj, is good for....attacking women and school girls. What a disgusting lot.
Where is Imran Khan now? Will take a jalsa to Malala's house now?
@HolierThanThough: Its time for you to look up how India dealt with the Terrorist in the state of Punjab under the disguise of Khalistan movement. Also thing to learn is how quickly Punjab recovered, prospered and forgot about the whole thing.
What can one say about these Taliban cowards and scum that they are so ready to murder a 14 year old girl. It is disgusting and shows you just what kind of morals these kind of people possess. Where is the army operation we were promised? These need to be cleared out of their hideouts once and for all and all those who have supported them need to be prosecuted.
Let pray for this brave girl, shame on Talibans for this cowardly act.
@Juju: "They've attacked our mosques, they've attacked our homes, they've attacked our army, they've attack our schools, now they've declared war on our children. Speak for historic change or be a condemned part of history, the choice is yours."
Well said. If you make a choice now and continue on this new path, peace and prosperity awaits you.
I feel ashamed of these So called Protectors of Islam know as Taliban or Al Qaida. Why are they targeting people who are week n not dependable. They never target Forces in Afghanistan or Iraq, they always target people within Pakistan who have nothing to do with the drones or US troops in Aghan or Iraq. Why Dont You Target Them??
First and foremost, we are glad to read that she was able to survive this attack on her life. We send her well wishes and hope to see her make a quick and full recovery. This act of terror once again reminds us that we are dealing with barbaric minded terrorists who are willing to cross all lines for the sake of achieving their evil agenda. We hope to build on our improving relationship and work together to eliminate this threat that continues to haunt the region.
As Taliban said: 'malala is a seculer mindd lady'. Taliban should realise that a particular thoughts can't be eliminated by killing people. Such acts by taliban show their frustration and defeat against brave ppl of pakistan. God bless you Malala. We are standing by you.
MaaShaaAllah,
Mullah's Islam in action. Taliban "ZindaBad", Humanity "MurdaBad".
Something is going own fishy here!!! Imran Khan gone to area to stop drone strikes and won sympathies. Yet they attacked to infuriate masses and public and promote public condemnation. It shows this guy Ehsanullah is working for those who want to continue drone strikes. It can be concluded that TTP doesnt want to end drone strikes after all.
Sad News! I hope she fully recovers and becomes more courageous against the talibans.
I thought that IK/PTI's "peace" march to waziristan was supposed have these TTP put down their arms? What happened IK/PTI? Do we need to wait 90 days? Dramabazis.
God bless her.
Barbarians....???
We need drone attack to kill this killers. We need US and world to support us to get rid of Taliban and it supporter. We should have peace march against Taliban.
Go america go drone these med evil people finish them from this planet
What else you can expect from illiterate people who are scared of US and killing muslims in their own country. What a coward people taliban are who attack minors. Where is there so called "pushtoon gherat" when targeting children. May Allah curse them in life and after.
I support DRONE STRIKES!
We should get rid of this sickening menace from our country. Anyone who helps us in doing so is our friend not our enemy!
Imran Khan you are responsible for that also.You too don't like secular liberals.Otherwise denounce your stand on taliban now if not before.
Saddened by what had happened. May Allah bless her with a speedy recovery back to a bouncing health.
As a PTI supporter i strongly condemn the devil act of Taliban. She is a Pakistani and we are with Pakistan not with Taliban.
Terrorism is a cancer and Secularism is an infection ... the one which spreads human-to-human is far more dangerous
I don't even have words to describe how I feel. What is the point of arguing about politics, economy, the positives & the negatives if even our children aren't safe in this country?
This is high-time for us to decide our fate, we need to get rid of ALL of Zia-ul-Haq's political & ideological children otherwise they will get rid of us.
They've attacked our mosques, they've attacked our homes, they've attacked our army, they've attack our schools, now they've declared war on our children. Speak for historic change or be a condemned part of history, the choice is yours.
It should be duty of every Pakistani please wake up.. say no to MULLAH-ISM. May ALLAH give her long life. too sad to hear that. One can remember the Barbaric time before Hadhrat MUHAMMAD PBUH. He came and give shelter specially to Women, Kids and poors. But after seeing that i can say we r still on same age.
I am a Pukhtun from Mardan and It is simply the height of cowardice, Pukhtuns are not known for killing unarmed people let alone a little girl. In the name of Islam they have abandoned the centuries old traditions and even the Islam does not permit killing of innocent people. These people should read the holly book Quran and learn from it and follow it, it is beyond my understanding what kind of Islam they believe in. My heart goes out to Malala, she is one brave soul, please God help her, the nation needs people like that, let us pray around the world for her recovery. God bless her.
May the Wrath of Allah descend upon the beasts responsible for this cowardly attack on the brave child. May he destroy the evil creatures filled with hatred who did this to her and may He deal harshly with those who protect them and find words to condone the beasts criminal actions, and also those who add buts and however to their condemnation of the vile creatures. May Allah look after our beautiful, courageous girl and grant her parents sabr. Ameen!
Another `courageous' act from those who supposedly protects the most benevolent religion on earth. These goons are scum. Sorry, but where are the drones when they are needed?
I am sure there are going to be statements from leaders (think Rahman Malik) saying the perpetrators will be brought to justice. Nope. Even if they are identified, they will be free to roam freely, spreading violence. When will this end?
I love her boldness for being a true Muslima just like our Prophet wife Aisha.
@Imran: @THE: ok, if its not an act of Taliban, they should come forward and tell people the truth. its easier than releasing videos of shooting unarmed soldiers at point blank. when will we stop justifying taliban acts?
And there still are people categorizing as good and bad taliban... we cannot avoid the reality.
idol or ideal?
Im watching tv at the moment both zardari and nawaz have condemned this but still there is no word from ik yet another clear indicator of danger to this country his naviety poses.
When i saw news on ARY and GEO and started to cry. i duno what islam they follow since it against Islam rules. Womens were first to given rights in history by Islam. We were told to travel to China if u must to study ( that time it wasnt easy i guess to travel i guess ). War prisoners were punished to teach muslims with knowledge they had after that they were free to go.
But for me timing of this is every interessting. PTI peace march few days ago and all hip arround it has been gone away with this attack. So i am woundringer what was main reason for this attack ?? For me there is other agenda behind this.
After this coward and shamfull act I am convinced drone attack on taliban is justified and need to of this time.
Taliban = Pakistan's Frankenstein monster.
@Nadeem:
Taliban have already claim responsibility for this attack. DAAH
@Naeem Siddiqui:
I doubt that Imran Khan will condemn this atrocity by his benefactors.
Does this deserves a sou moto by supreme court?
What if it was my own daughter? ask yourself.
What a disgrace.
Where are the mobs today? Why aren't they burning down the Taliban Strongholds?
A precious child has been brutally shot and there is no outrage? This is unbelievable and total disgrace.
Where are your balls the people of Pakistan? Why is there no outrage on the streets???
LOVE 4 ALL HEATRED 4 NONE
@KM:
So, enlighten us. What do the true talibans" do and where do they exist and why are we yet to hear these angelic talibans denounce the attack by the "bad talibans"?
Talibans should not talk about Islamic values and Pashtun culture, because they donot stand to the morality enshrined by both. Most of these illitrate, savage third class pseudo Molvies are lenders and characterless thugs devoid of any morality., They are worse than Kafirs and non muslims. If they are right, I am not willing to share heavens with these dirty smelly pile of poo.
Come on Malala..you are a brave girl.......not only Pakistan, but the whole world needs youngsters like you with love and blessings from your eastern neighbourScared of a 14 year old? Girl? Taliban - you are real brave! Who did you say again you are descendants of - Arabs? Turks? Or somebody else? Well, you made your ancestors real proud today.
@Abdullah Khan: "I am so angry on these Jahilans (talibans), they are barbaric, coward, miserable subhumans that should be killed as soon as possible. We the people are against Jahilans and their supporting Mullahs. Please do not support any activity of them."
Please tell that to Imran Khan and Sheikh Rashid's supporters.
get well soon !!! our best wishes are for you MALALA get well soon!!!
This reminds me of Aṣmāʼ bint Marwān and Abu 'Afak incidents.
Some stupids are blaming the Army again for this mishap. It is the mindset of the people that have to be changed and I have met many Taliban supporters from Swat and Army cannot change the thinking of these people. Also less than 10,000 Soldiers are in the Whole region of Swat so how come they are covering every inch????. Also all of my Pukhtoon friends mock the women who are not in Hijab and in Burqa and make fun of these women and call these women as immoral and all type of bad names so tell me Army is responsible for this Mindset or there is something in the Pukhtoon culture that led to this type of behavior???. Dont blame someone else for your own shortcomings as you are not an Angel. Taliban are within the local population and they are not foreigners and unless local community will not fully cooperate nothing can change at all.
As great Khan suggested Pakistan need to talk with Taliban rather then killing by drones or use of any kind of force as they are our own and above all true muslims who want to implement sharia and it is sharia that teaches humans humanity. The blasting of schools, harsh punishments and barbaric behaviour is west and government propaganda. . Can any one tell great king khan and his fan club that peace talks and peace agreements made in 2004 at shakai, 2005 sararogha, 2006 miramsha and 2007 at swat failed miserably by violations from taliban side as their only objective is to impose their version of sharia and they have no respect of human life...Khan has alraedy lost all his respect in my view due to his Pro Mulla, Pro Taliban and Pro Alqaeda stance and he stands for pro regressive, intolerant and fanatic religiious right wing politics in which the brave girl like Malala has no chance to survive let alone express her self and live a life as a free decent human being.
Such a sad news. Very, very sad indeed. No words to express. So long as SS keeps appeasing Talibans and asking for their help, Sheikh Rasheed keeps calling Mulla Omar Amirul Moumin, CJ keeps releasing the terrorists, likes of Himid Guls keep praising Talibans for their valor, IK keeps praising Tribal culture and customs, Bilors keep offering bounties and Dastagir endorsing it.................... such barbaric acts shall continue. In the name of religion Pakistan has lost al humanity.
Surely, this should be a turning point now: where everyone says enough is enough. That the Taliban have decided to kill a CHILD, they have surely proved themselves to be nothing more than ANIMALS, the nation should rise up against them, and say ENOUGH. Furthermore Mala should be provided immediate and urgent protection, as the Taliban have already threatened to target her if she survives.
The attackers would no doubt have subsequently prostrated themselves before their maker with a feeling of immense satisfaction at having struck a blow in his name. The sicknes continues to spread and intensify.
This is a deplorable act but should not lead us to support drones which i saw some respondents doing. Two wrongs dont make a right. Ask the people who are losing their loved ones to these drone strikes. Ask them what "collateral damage" really means for them.
For all those who are uselessly dragging Imran Khan into this, he has already condemned the act and termed it an act of cowardice. Imran is standing up for the Tribal people not the Taliban. Learn to make the difference please. All tribals are not Taliban. Imran has never supported militancy in any shape or form. We must step out of our political bias and try to understand issues in their true perspective.
Wondering if the Afghan Taliban really understand the damage TTP is causing to the word Taliban? It feels that TTP was created to tarnish the image of true talibans.
This incident shows that the strength of the Taliban is weakening. They were threatened by a 14 year old girl. We are so proud of you Malala and wish you a speedy recovery.You were able to accomplish what years of war on terror couldnt! May this day mark the downfall of the people who were involved in this condemnable act!
@Saleem: "I hope that Nadeeem will now accept that this shameful act was perpetrated by Taliban, as the TTP has officially accepted its responsibility."
[Sarcasm] No, no what proof do you have it was done by Taliban ? Taliban are Imran's friends and he will take a peace march to SWAT and make them surrender their weapons. The TTP were forced to take responsibility by PML(N) and JUI(F). [Sarcasm]
Pakistans big army should go after them...........surround them and kill them...........This country now needs to choose either perpetual terrorism or revenge..............Stop blaming other agencies..........
Such a sad news, these morons attack these symbols of bravery to create fear. May Allah protect her and destroy these enemies of islam and Pakistan.
I am so angry on these Jahilans (talibans), they are barbaric, coward, miserable subhumans that should be killed as soon as possible. We the people are against Jahilans and their supporting Mullahs. Please do not support any activity of them.
@AGSA: That's insane. Your American fathers are the one to blame for what happens in KABUL and WE.
@THE: dude dont blame Imran, its the policy we are against. not just PTI even PML is against it https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=447223498649595&set=a.272545346117412.61816.272107646161182&type=1&theater
“There’s no difference between terrorism and drone attacks...both are spilling the blood of innocent people!!! Drone attacks are serving no purpose, rather are a source of increasing anti-American sentiments... Pakistan has paid a heavy price in the war against terrorism...More than 40,000 Pakistanis have laid down their lives besides incurring huge financial losses!! The world, particularly the West, must not forget our sacrifices and should help Pakistan in stopping the drone attacks.”
(CM Shahbaz Sharif talking to German media representatives in Berlin: Admin
and to all the other haters of Imran khan out there , try to understand his philosophy, plus i agree with @ummi Army has covered every inch of Swat specially Mingora, But still so called unknown gunmen fire at school bus & escape in daylight… Question should also be asked from government, there are two police on every corner of mingora city.. at 500 feet u can spot 2 community police , such a heavy presence of security force where the shooting happened.. where were they?
@G. Din
I agree, I also believe in two nation theory. So please make your people understand first.
"Thank You."
It was most distressing to know about this terrible incident. Malala Yousafzai is a ray of hope in our darkening world. May she recover quickly and continue to have the strength to carry on with her mission to promote an educated and tolerant society in Pakistan. She is so young and yet so full of high aspirations; may she never lose hope and may God Almighty protect her from the cowardly attacks of those who are making our country a dangerous and barbaric place.
OMG SO SICK!! How're these people even alive? How do they even walk around, with such horrific and gruesome ideas and plots in their minds? But as you see, God kept His soldier alive. And what happened to the terrorists? Were they caught or did they manage to flee?
I support Drone Strikes
May Allah swt bless our young sister and give her courage in defending the Sunnah of the Last Prophet pbuh that of seeking education to advance the Ummah and curse the violent Mullahs and so called men who dare not raise a voice against injustice.
Sad beyond belief...
I hope that Nadeeem will now accept that this shameful act was perpetrated by Taliban, as the TTP has officially accepted its responsibility.
i dont believe in these type of fake news. taliban are just freedom fighters. they cant attack this girl. usa, raw behind this attack.
This is really sad news, I hope and pray all the girls are safe and recover quickly. I can remember watching a documentary about Malala Yousufzai when the Taliban took over SWAT, I was so proud of her and she was such a brave girl. I really don't understand what's going on in Pakistan, it's becoming one of most dangerous places in the world. Pakistan has so much to offer to the rest of the world, please Pakistan wake up before it's too late, ending up like Libyia or Syria. I wish I could sponsor this young girl to come live with me or some other Pakistani's in Australia where she would live safe and in peace.
I condemn for cowardly act of Taliban's to injured brave girl. May God bless her and pray for quick recovery of health.
@Fundar: The courts should pro actively go against Talibans instead of Govt & Administration
I dont know what these BEAST have to do with this little Kid. This country is really under curse of somebody. Killing is the easiest and the most common thing in this country. There is no security and no justice for the comman man and woman. This whole nation is under curse. May you recover soon Malala.
Hats off to Taliban apologists. Here is your achievement.
She is victim of thug Taliban...Taliban are curse for our country...
She is not even Ahmedi or Shia!
She's my daughters age. I can't even imagine how she stood up against terrorists!! Have tears in my eyes as I write this...
Pakistani Friends: What have you let your country become? Please wake up, at least for the sake of future generation.
This only show how scared talaban and talaban types are from the 'day light' They just want to live in dark and also want others to come and live with them in the caves..where you do not needto develop brain/mind like other normal human being
Even being an Indian,I would like to appeal to Gen Kayani to take serious note of this shocking incident and many others happened in the past, to launch all out operations against these barbarians without any further delay. I am fully confident that a professional and competent army under your able command will achieve a decisive victory against Taleban soon who are bent on destroying Pakistan.
Shame on us, shame on us ! Pa Pukhtano Lanat sha, Sharam okai.
Get well soon Malala. Entire nation's prayers are with you.
M. RAFIQUE ZAKARIA Karachi
the innocent and flair malala has been inspiration to us .This is not an attack on a person but it shows our attitude that where do we stand.At least we should spare our children.
Shameful act .... Our society is burning and no one is there to help ... In fact we are helpless .. may ALLAH TA'ALA Help us.
@SaneVoice: "Seeing the pathetic situations in the whole subcontinent sometimes I feel we were not worthy enough for independence from British." Talk about yourself, not the subcontinent. We have nothing in common. Don't include us in your "we". Thank you!
@CallinArmy-Khi:
I'm not a political person and do not support any political parties due to the fact that NONE of them talk about our real problems and have a manifesto of its solution but THAT man calls himself a champion of breaking the status quo and thus he talks about removing army from tribal areas instead of increasing their numbers to safeguard the border which is unguarded and root cause of this menace. If you want to catch these criminals then close the escape route and that being the Western border. Remove all those people who travel back & forth illegally and every single day to stop the flow. If any of these so called leaders (be it in uniform or without) care one cent about this country they would do that right away.
@AGSA:
Then why is your government dragging its feet when there is talk of fencing that border and sending back the refugees. Is it not a fact that many northern areas in your country are one of the peaceful areas in the region from decades but yet their people are living here (e.g Tajiks & Hazara).. Take back your refugees, no where else would they find shelter for free and enjoy free healthcare, free education and tax free businesses. Most of this anarchy is due to the fact that millions of people are coming back & forth illegally to this country. You cannot hope to have peace in this region unless this border gets sealed as all the criminals can prop up and then hide on either side of uncontrolled parts.
This outpouring of grief is all very well. The question is: what are we all going to do to try to stop this happening again in the future? Are you going to pressure the government, especially the Swat government to confront these criminals (everyone in Swat will know who did this). All the PTI supporters: are you going to pressure Imran Khan to abolish the Taleban once and for all if or when he becomes Prime Minister?
i m really a big supporter of MR KHAN keep up the good work MR KHAN
Shame, shame and shame is your name. Anyone who fired at them is even below a vulture what to talk of a being a human. He should not target innocent girls who by nature are weaker than male so what credit if any he took firing on them. Secondly he should not have run away proved he is coward. If he is brave he should show his face before the public so that he can be taught life remembering lesson. Let us see what happens next. Is he arrested or still free? Test for our police and court. I pray for speedy recovery of the girls indeed, aameen. Iqbal Hadi Zaidi / Kuwait
Really, the people who attack are sick and deserved to be hunted and killed like crazy dogs. But what is more sickening is posters here who are taking this incident and turning it into point scoring against each other. You are no better then the people who commits these crimes. You have no sympathy with the girl or cause, you just find every news to make political point scoring. Shame on you all.
Let's see if Kaptaan would condemn this attacks.
GOD bless you and save you. we love and need you. Great curse to dirty terrorists
@Naeem Siddiqui: Has Asif Zardari, Raja Pervaiz , PPP, Nawaz Sharif, Shahbaz Shareef, PML-N, Deputy Prime Minister Pervaiz Elahi, Shujaat HUssain, PML-Q, Altaf Hussain, Farooq Sattar - MQM, Maulana Fazlur Rahman- JUI-F condemned this shameful act AT ALL!!!!
all of them are responsible for every citizen's safety in this country because they are either in govt or part of it...Imran Khan and PTI has no official and non official connection with incumbent govt. hence its pointless to hold them responsible. But for some narrow minded intellectuals the temptation seems too great to resist when it comes to bash and trash IK & PTI. How could you possibly hold someone responsible when you haven't even elected him as your representative as well as consistently FAIL to mention names you have elected to represent yourselves....I won't be surprised if you woke up one morning and found your other half has given up on you and you will hold Imran Khan & PTI responsible for that too ....
On a serious note....and putting all my differences aside...this is a wicked and a cold blooded act and I hope and pray Inshallah all victims get better soon and have a speedy recovery...Ameen
And then it is said, the country will progress and youth will take it forward. I remember watching her on television, saying that she aspire's to become a doctor and serve the country and now look how she has been served by her her own people... it is really a shame and disgust.. May Allah bless her with good health.
Malala, you represent the peaceful people of Pakistan and Pakistan is with you. May Allah keep you in His protection.
Please army and gov. Condemn this and hang the attackers. Everyone knows who they are
@THE: @CallinArmy-Khi:
Most painful, most shocking and most negative. Frankly, I do not have the words to describe my shock and awe. Get well soon Malala, the whole country is praying for your quick and speedy recovery. Allah Allmighty will protect you and give you strength to study further. Aameen
May God bless the injured with best of health AND give Hidayat to shooters
I have been a very strong supporter of Imran Khan but strongly disagree with the approach he has towards the scum of Taliban and other militants. I wish he protested against these killers before he did against drones. Drones have killed many high profile killers like baitulah mehsood. I hope the CIA does more drone strikes and takes out the people who are out to take over our beloved country.
Shame on that man. Malala whole pakistan is with you. May allah be with you.
We should loudly condemn this act of barbarianism. The security must provide security of life Malala Jana.
Whoever is enemy of such beautiful heart & mind is not a human. He deserves to be treated like a wild animal.
May Allah give her fast recovery & she goes back to doing what she was doing.
I wish imran khan comes out with a clear statement condmning taliban for their barbarity.
May Allah bless all three girls so that they can recover smoothly. Aameen
Need to eliminate Taliban's approach
By firing on an unarmed minor but brave girl from Pakistan who only wanted to continue her education, the Taleban have proved to the whole world that they are the biggest lunatics ever born and a living curse on this earth. This cowardly act of shooting a hapless girl will not help their agenda of enforcing sharia by force since people of Pakistan will now hate them more than ever. I sincerely hope that some international agency adopts this brave girl from Pakistan and gives her education in a foreign country.
@Nadeem You asked @Naeem Siddiqui how do you know that it was act of Taliban , FYI EhsanUllah Ehsan, the TTP spokeman threatened Malala yousaf Zai in March
may allah bless her...and hope that she recover quickly.. appalled from this dirty antics of terrorists.
@Nadeem: "How did you know that it was an act of Taliban?"
You think it was the martians ?
@Nadeem: For one, she was openly threatened Ahsanullah Ahsan of TTP ... also anyone else who is notorious in the area for being against girl education
@Naeem Siddiqui: Imran khan never condemn this act, because he want to protect Taliban, not innocent Pakistani people......
The BEASTS are at it again.Terrifying people of Swat once again. Nip the evil in the bud or else there will be no time left.
@Naeem Siddiqui: How did you know that it was an act of Taliban?
@ rick You don't need afghans to spoil your country , you have enough spoilers of your own. You are so self sufficient that you are even exporting them. So better talk some sense next time.
This is not our War , Give peace a Chance...
Malala, you worked for the people of Pakistan, you worked for peace, you worked to save the lives of people of swat, our well wishes are with you, You are the face of peace full Pakistan, I hope you will be recover very soon, INSHALLAH, A small and cheap character can't beat a Huge character. God Bless you and your family.
@ rick
Remove afghans later BUT first remove the jihadi policies out of your miltary minds, then there will be no one,who will try to kill angels like MALALA YOUSUFZAI. And because of this mindset AFGHAN malala yousufzais are being killed everyday in afghanistan.
A discaracefull and coward act by assailants...Malala is not a name, its an ideology that can never be killed
This gruesome act cannot be done by any one other than the curseful Talibans. These dirty unevolved beasts are the ones whose cases are pleaded by the Lawyers in the courts. The bigger shame is that when these dirty people are "honorably acquitted" by honorable courts.
"Taliban will disarm after my peace march " Imran Khan
thank you , Imran Khan . We are forever indebted to you
Please recognize Talibans and their supporters
@Naeem Siddiqui: Imran will lead a peace march to SWAT to talk to his Taliban friends. And this time he will take journalists from Italy, France and Japan.
Taliban's are cowards and sub-humans who attack unarmed young girls.
Will Imran Khan or PTI condemn this shamfull act !!???
Wishing this poor girl a speedy recovery. I will also pray that her attackers recieve justice for their misdeeds.
I feel sick!!!
psychopaths in devilish labyrinth of ignorance...........
She is a very brave girl and symbol of children especially girls rights in Pakistan. She is the first Pakistani girl nominated for International Children Peace Prize. Pakistani nation is proud of this 14 yrs courageous girl.
Total failure of governance; they should have known she would be targeted by the bigots.
First the Jirga-Vani news and now this. Am tired and so sad...
is this result of drone attacks, mullas and politicians should come out in the open and condemn theses animals.
Oh...lets Pray for her good health and sense to prevail in every quarter..
The political attempted murder of a fourteen year old girl. Just one of those typical everyday things in Pakistan.
we still have a lot of sick people amongst us, and we need to start cleaning our country by removing the Afghans first, they have spoiled our nation.
This has brought tears of my eyes and sank my heart. Please leave our children alone you thugs, you are the scum of the earth!!
Talibanism is a curse and is the fruit of our sins we harbored since the day of independence. Seeing the pathetic situations in the whole subcontinent sometimes I feel we were not worthy enough for independence from British.
God Bless her...may she recover from injury soon!
