Whoops! Another honest mistake I guess. Funny how that keeps happening when the stories' perpetrators are muslim. Hmmm? Just as any peice of news about oh, say, an Israeli attack on a hamas enclave, would be kept up as long as it wasn't racist or defamatory, as this simple bit of reporting CLEARLY isn't, I'm sure it's fair to say that an honest mistake was made. So here it is again, presented as a fascinating sociological insight into the peace-loving and wholly humanistic fundamentalist muslim culture.
Taliban Beheads Teacher for Educating Girls
Wednesday, January 04, 2006
U.S. Envoy: Bin Laden May Not Be Controlling Al Qaeda KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Officials on Wednesday blamed Taliban militants for beheading a teacher in a central Afghan town, the latest in a string of attacks against educators at schools where girls study.
Armed men decapitated Malim Abdul Habib in his home in the town of Qalat late Tuesday and forced his wife and children to watch, said Ali Khail, a provincial government spokesman. The assailant did not harm the other relatives, he said.
The attackers then fled and the wife called the police, Khail said. Police are questioning three people who were guests in the victim's home at the time.
Habib was the headmaster of Shaikh Mathi Baba high school, which is attended by 1,300 boys and girls.
The insurgents claim that educating girls is against Islam and they even oppose government-funded boys' schools because they teach subjects other than religion.
Oh and the sources...there are plenty..
