Summary

Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai condemned the Taliban’s treatment of women at a Pakistan summit on girls’ education in Muslim communities, stating, “The Taliban do not see women as human beings.”

She criticized their policies banning Afghan girls from education and work as “gender apartheid” and un-Islamic.

Afghanistan is the only country banning education for girls beyond grade six, affecting 1.5 million girls.

Malala urged Muslim leaders to challenge these practices and advocate for girls’ education globally.

The Taliban declined to attend or comment.

    The other guy is a propaganda-slurping American “atheist”. You can easily tell he’s not even talked to a Muslim, or probably even any immigrant who has a faith, in real life. He just assumes everyone is like his from-birth American neighbors. Like… he won’t even ask them why they believe he’ll just assume the worst in humans. It’s unfortunate.
