THIS. What kind of grown-ass man is so threatened by a teenage girl that he feels the need to shoot her? Pathetic is the perfect word.

"He urged her, according to the letter, to return to Pakistan and "use your pen for Islam and the plight of the Muslim community."

What the hell did he think she was doing? This coward, it doesn't matter if she's a girl or and old lady, shooting her is justified by nothing.

to say he was shocked by the shooting, and to express his regret that he did not warn Malala ahead of time of the attack.

I like how he's all regret with not warning her instead of, y'know, the actual murder attempt.

EDIT: I can't goddamn read apparently. The source here did mention he didn't think it's right or wrong. Sounds like he's more upset that the Taliban is viewed as a villain here than Malala's murder attempt.

LMAO. i posted this article, but I didn't read the "to say he was shocked by the shooting, and to express his regret that he did not warn Malala ahead of time of the attack."

and MTE- that he is sad that he didn't warn her, not that he tried to kill her or denying girls an education or any type of existence.

I just read the article he posted, and i am so confused. He doesn't think its right or wrong, and ""Let's leave it to Allah almighty," he added. "He is the best judge." um...pretty sure its up to you whether or not to shoot some one.

unfortunately, this sentence that he said rings true though..... "Innocent women and children have been killed in drone attacks but who cares because attackers are highly educated, non-violent, peaceful Americans."

It irked me that malala was brought to the US to speak to the UN, but no one is focusing on Obama's gross drone policy. they dont even know where they are aiming the drones, just randomly and hoping they catch a terrorist.

I give her points for not responding immediately by telling him to go fuck himself.

God, this'd be funny if it wasn't so serious.

'We didn't shoot you because you wanted an education... we shot you because you spoke against the (extremist) Islamic system we want to implement, which would very likely deny you and other girls an education...'

I think Malala Yousafzai is fierce, and the fact that some Taliban dude is mansplaining to her just underscores that.
