Radicals Target Pakistani Girls’ Schools

…In what appears to be an escalating spree over the last year, extremists have bombed at least four girls’ schools and circulated violent threats warning girls to stay at home. While no girls or school staff have been killed, girls in some areas have stopped attending classes – marking a direct blow to Pakistan’s national enterprise of “enlightened moderation,” which posits female education as a central pillar.

…”A woman has been asked to remain behind the four walls of the house. Men have been given preference by God,” Fazlullah explains in an interview on the banks of the Swat River, where he is building a madrassah, or religious school. In a recent peace treaty signed with the government, Fazlullah agreed to stop preaching against girls’ education in return for keeping his illegal radio station.
