I’m finding a lot of commentary and some (possible) news about Malala Yousafzai on Twitter (via #Malala).
The important item is a new update on her condition.
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.
The same item includes more evil shit from the Taliban.
SWAT: 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.
…
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.
One item claims that Imran Khan says it’s about the drones.
According to Imran Khan, Pakistani Taliban’s violence is a reaction to drone attacks. Was
#Malala a drone pilot?
God hates women and schoolgirls.
Peace for whom? Certainly not for Malala Yousafzai and millions of girls like her. Shame on you NYT!
Imran Khan must be suffering the long-term effects of being hit by cricket balls during his time as a player.
This is the same chap who had no qualms partying it up in the West. Anything to get elected, I suppose.
Some more amusement from our best friends in the Kingdom:
Why are these Men in an ad for Breast Cancer Awareness?

Charlie Fuqua, a Republican candidate for the Arkansas House of Representatives, would agree with the Taliban.

Where do the anti-imperialist types run off to in articles like this?
Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) sound like one of the noble victims of that war criminal Barack Obama’s drone war.
This is one of the saddest things I have ever read. What does one say?
