Malala Yousafzai urges Muslim leaders to challenge policies restricting girls and women's schooling.

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.

    I don’t actually associate Israel with Jewish sentiment mind you, never have never will.

    You’ve LITERALLY been doing that this entire time. For example-

    If it is Zionist, it would be a Jewish state.

    No it would not. It would be a Zionist state.

    This is the last time you get to be told Zionism and Judaism are in no way the same thing.

    I have been more than lenient with you and I am very tired of you expecting the JEW WHO IS NOT AN ISRAELI to explain what ISRAEL and HAMAS thinks as if I have some sort inside knowledge… AS IF I WERE A FUCKING ISRAELI.

      I’m so confused… I’m just trying to understand what Zionism is here… it’s a colonial project to bring about a Jewish state according to Wikipedia. I understand, could be lying. I have in Israeli friend and a Turkish friend I’ll get their opinion on, but from what I am getting is that you disagree with the claim of the wiki article?
