MALALA YOUSUFZAI CASE IS A CLEAR PICTURE OF GENDER BASED PERSECUTION OF WOMEN IN PAKISTAN!



I AM MALALA YOUSUFZAI......


SHOULD MALALA BE GRANTED GENDER-BASED ASYLUM IN THE UNITED STATES?

THE ANSWER IS YES:

Please click on the following links to learn about MALALA's severe persecution in the hands of pakistan  extremist militant group which the government of her country is unable or un willing to control or stop.....Malala spoke out for the basic human right to education for girls and was shot in the head at close range by the extremists in Pakistan. Amazingly she survived but we dont know her prognosis yet.
Please click on the following links to learn about this horrific event and what the supporters of Malala have to say...

If one Malala is so potent and strong to place the chief of the Taliban order her killed while he is still in HIDING then we can imagine what will happen if every girl and woman in pakistan becomes a MALALA!
The act of shooting in the head  the innocent, young and beautiful girl is to render her brain damaged and or paralized so she cannot speak out or write for her passion on girl education in islam.   It is an attempt to terrify other young girls to be submissive, obedient and not learn know or voice their basic human right to education.
Who has ever heard of killing a child because the child wants to go to school??????


IF ONE MALALA DIES A MILLION WILL BE BORN.

Malala and other similarly situated girls desrve political asylum protection and green card to permanently and safely live in the United states and continue their work freely.
