The Swat Valley

Posted by Sigismund on February 23, 2009, at 19:43:36

It is north west of Islamabad, and is the next casualty of the wretched battle between fundamentalisms.
136 schools destroyed, so girls do not go anymore.
The shia and sufi faiths replaced by Wahhabi petrodollar funded fundamentalism.
It has a long way to run.

The only positive in the whole mess that I can see is that the US has a president who understands something of the complexity of the world.
