Taliban letter to Malala Yousaf

I'll let you read it first, but I see key points in this letter which show flaws in the thinking of the taliban organization.

Dig, I saw this yesterday and couldn't believe how - I don't know whether to call it stupid, or irrational (motivation bias?) - the Taliban author was.

And now she's smearing them by telling the truth? We should give religious fundamentalists a platform to display the moral inconsistency of their puerile beliefs.

What the fuck? Ok, here is the translation in violent moron speak, "We don't care if you get an education as long as it starts with the Koran and nothing but the Koran."

Seriously Taliban assholes, who gives a fuck what she wants to learn, girls/women are not your fucking property. The only propaganda is the bullshit hate filled crap you spew. Go fuck yourselves Taliban.
