The Two Most Important Things About Malala Yousafzai That Everyone Seems to Ignore… The Two Most Important Things About Malala Yousafzai That Everyone Seems to Ignore… Posted by PBSpot Admin <http://politicalblindspot.com/author/admin/> 19 October 2013 <http://politicalblindspot.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/SWAT_Marxist_school_Malala_Yousufzai.jpg> In the wake of Malala Yousafzai’s snubbing by the Nobel Committee some have raised important questions like* did Malala lose the award because the committed was afraid to confront radical Islam? * Perhaps, but an even more fundamental question is *why is no one talking about Malala Yousafzai’s religion or politics?* The Jewish *Forward* poignantly notes that “As touching as Stewart’s interview with her was, and it was touching, it did overlook a big part of what makes Malala Malala, and that is her religion. Yousafzai is a Muslim, and sees the potential for reform within the context of Islam, and not, like other prominent feminists from Muslim countries, outside of it.” In all the Western media craze over Malala, there is another key point ignored about her: she is not only a Muslim feminist, she is a socialist with Marxist tendencies. In her own words: “I am convinced Socialism is the only answer and I urge all comrades to take this struggle to a victorious conclusion. Only this will free us from the chains of bigotry and exploitation.” Malala has taken part in the national Marxist Summer School in Swat. In a message she sent while recovering from her injury, she wrote the follow, which the Western media has ignored in their attempt to appropriate her: “I’d like to thank The Struggle and the IMT for giving me a chance to speak last year at their Summer Marxist School in Swat and also for introducing me to Marxism and Socialism. I just want to say that in terms of education, as well as other problems in Pakistan, it is high time that we did something to tackle them ourselves. It’s important to take the initiative. We cannot wait around for any one else to come and do it. Why are we waiting for someone else to come and fix things? Why aren’t we doing it ourselves? -- Peace Is Doable -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Green Youth Movement" group.
