In her UN speech Malala Yousafzai said: “Thousands of people have been killed by the terrorists and millions have been injured. I am just one of them. So here I stand, one girl among many. I speak not for myself, but so those without a voice can be heard” If only she had said that the Taliban kill children, so do the Americans, Zionsists, Brits and French. If she could speak of child labour in India or about the Boko haram fanatics of Nigeria or child marriage and other social injustices, surely she could have also spoken of the hundreds of children who had been killed in Israeli bombing and US drone attacks in her own country and that too close to her home district, Swat. Perhaps, her speechwriters or those who are coachingthis teenage international celebrity apparently did not want her to tarnish the West. She was born at a time when hundreds of thousands of Palestinian children had died or were dying due to crippling economic sanctions which the UN Security Council had slapped on Gaza strip and west bank at the behest of countries which now want to take Malala to all the amusement parks in the world.
