I am amazed by the strength of the heroic girl named Malala
I just saw a news segment that Malala Yousafzai will return to Pakistan even though there are still death threats against her. I hope this is her choice. I just saw something on the news that said 'she' made the decision but news links attribute the comments to her father.
Either way... WoW. This is a powerful person. I remember when Pakistan had a female leader and America was fumbling around trying to get the E.R.A. passed. I am truly impressed with the strength of the Pakistani women. This young lady has shown incredible courage.
I hope she and her sisters can lead Pakistan out of the darkness that the Right Wing Religious Fanatics have forced upon their people.
This woman is amazing.
