Mala Yousafzai :Very brave principled kid
Madonna : Vacuos airheaded self publicist desperate for attention

She even said this without any realisation of the richter scale induced blast from the irony-ometer exploding
Revealing the news of the attack on 14-year-old Malala Yousafzai had “made her cry” she asked the crowd: “Do you understand the sickness and absurdity of this?”
Oooh what i wouldnt have given to be in the crowd with a megaphone at that point

Brave little girl and I wish her all the best but surely Pakistan has hospitals that could have treated her, after all, most of the doctors were probably trained here anyway.

An amazing person. She is the embodiment of good. Her sheer will, strength and bravery shows that there is an antidote to the horror we see in this world.
God we need more like her.

We need education.
The kids follow what the so called elders tell them. Malala has shown that education and questioning opens other ways, those that don't lead into some feudal dark ages system.
For once, is NSR agreed on one thing?

Nothing against her per se, I'm fairly indifferent to her, she certainly doesn't say anything interesting or especially insightful, just bien pensant feel good platitudes.

She's just a kid who we have made made into a mascot, no worse than that, we've build a weird cult around her.

She's for better or worse a symbol of what is possible if education is available isn't she , that's about it
Her peers back home find it inspiring, and presumably taliban / isis hate the western message

There is no safer investment than in bricks and mortar and there are plenty of potential tenants where landlords can facilitate and provide a roof over their heads and will pay handsomely for it.
