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..

I believe that they do the necessary works that would encourage others to respect the intentions of their faith.\r\n\r\n\r\nI understand that their courage to request no ransom paid, leave their country behind, and face the desolation of a foreign nation at war, might not look good on some. Christians taking care of strangers whom certain Islamic spiritual leaders have not yet proselytized could be a poor reflection on the gospel of those who proselytize for majority voting power.\r\n\r\n\r\nLet the captors in Iraq prove the degree of their rationality, and the just deserts of their spiritual leadership before the world media, and release all non-fundamentalist Christians in a safe and timely fashion. We do not need the fundamentalists \u2013 let them see where fundamentalism and theocracy leads, or let them renounce their fundamentalist requirement to pit their faith against other faiths, and safely return home.\r\n\r\n\r\nI am not sure who is the biggest coward \u2013 a captor in Iraq, or the world media for not encouraging fundamentalist airtime in exchange for physical and spiritual hostages.\r\n\r\n\r\nBesides attention, does the terrorist want a democratic vote? No \u2013 he would rather proselytize before establishing democracy.\r\n\r\n\r\nWould the Council for National Policy want CNN to do a documentary about them and their tax-exempt \u2018educational\u2019 foundation and how their agenda might parallel the Shiite\u2019s and all other political religious machines? Would they sue for libel?\r\n\r\n\r\n[Imagine Pat Robertson or Ralph Reed playing their lawyer and Howard Stern playing the judge.]\r\n\r\n\r\nVote for those who uphold the wall of separation between church and state, and vote against those who think that their religion is trustworthy enough to remove that mighty wall and call forth the so-called \u201cthe marriage of the lamb\u201d. Those who call forth judgment remain humble, in that they judge not the lusts of fellow humanity, but the lusts of Inhumanity and the deceptive veils that She serves.\r\n\r\n\r\nYes, I would give Fundamentalism a swift kick in the butt \u2013 only because She is not a person whom the courts can serve justice, and because She killed Christ and many others who desired to purify established religions.\r\n\r\n\r\nLet us hope that the \u2018Bubblementalists\u2019 will wake up to the sound of jubilee and celebration, and not the sound of apocalyptic warfare on those who refuse to surrender. Let us make 2006 the year of popping 'the bubble'.\r\n\r\n\r\nI hope all the very best for Ariel Sharon\u2019s vision - Greetings from Canada\u2026\r\n\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/kcindymedia.org\/newswire\/display\/6630\/index.php\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/richmond.indymedia.org\/newswire\/display\/11462\/index.php\r\n\r\nhttp:\/\/dc.indymedia.org\/mod\/comments\/display\/133553\/index.php\r\n\r\nhttps:\/\/israel.indymedia.org\/newswire\/display\/4050\/index.php\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSometimes one must rely on trusting strangers to help transmit messages to the attention of those who reign over the dominant broadcast mediums.\r\n\r\n\r\nOne little letter of grievance might be discarded, but many of the same concern even Caesar. One single posting on an independent media message board might be overlooked, but if it has the power to draw many affirmations, appendages and links, it might concern even President Bush.\r\n\r\n\r\nWe have seen evidence of secret service snooping around Indy Media Centers before. They come in with little or no apparent reason but legal entitlement. We see this more as a calculated plan to instill fear in those who might otherwise instill fear in the powers that be. If the CIA were able to stamp out the inception of independent media, they would have done so in a New York second; nevertheless, they want us to believe that they have the manpower and key word sequences programmed to spy on all dissidents.\r\n\r\n\r\nIn the quest for justice, people seek technologies to collectively forward petitions and referenda, while battling those few people who have no desire to appease those who seek attention in the court that counts most \u2013 mainstream broadcast media.\r\n\r\n\r\nWhen we place our grievances in order of priority, we immediately recognize the one grievance we share in common \u2013 not getting attention where it counts most. Collectively, this one petition to the government for a redress of grievance will NOT fall prey to backroom sweet-talkers who would persuade our elected representatives to find a lid for it.\r\n\r\n\r\nElected officials will either be seen as evasive, dishonest and self-serving, or they will be commended for being open and honest and willing to address these issues head-on, but not only after they are cast into the realm of mainstream broadcast media.\r\n\r\n\r\nLet us choose leaders who will escort this grievance above all forces of adversity and suppression, and bring it clearly into the light of the mainstream media world, where all other grievances of majorities and minorities may be considered thereby.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCome let us reason together through our mediums, and let us not deny the anger, aggression, bloodshed and misery rendered to that ancient goddess of suppression and confusion which prophecy students call spiritual Babylon. Blame that bitch for spawning psychotic terrorism!\r\n\r\n\r\nThose in power, who truly care about security and justice for all, would not exercise the violence of suppression, but provide a safe place where fundamentalist attention-seekers can have all the attention they want. We have nothing to fear but the fear of letting would-be terrorists attempt to justify their \u2018divinely ordained\u2019 reasons for blowing up innocent people. When true diplomats start sharing the microphone with the disgruntled, the disgruntled will begin to diminish \u2013 and so will the need to build walls.\r\n\r\n\r\nThe only place to deal a deadly blow to fundamentalist tendencies before they ripen is in the media battlefield. Only here do we possess the collective intelligence to disrobe the sorcerers of fundamentalism and suicide-terrorism in the presence of those who are vulnerable to their deceptions. The only adversity we would face is the fear of those who realize that this measure would also bring judgment upon less obvious sorceries.\r\n \r\n\r\nIt seems inconceivable that a suicide bomber could fearlessly entrust his departure to a promised place that gives its blessings to those who enter in through bloodshed \u2013 he or she would have to be greatly deceived and confused. (Again, it is the collective responsibility of media to enlighten ensnared minds.) It is more likely that so-called zealots who are recruited to carry out suicide bombings are given only two diabolical choices; they can blow themselves up and earn money for the families they leave behind, or they can spare their own lives and witness the murder of their families.\r\n\r\n\r\nFundamental Concerns:\r\n\r\n\r\nIranian Shiites have infiltrated Iraq to exploit their democratic elections, in the same way that right wing American leaders and their Council for National Policy are trying to infiltrate Canada through the Conservative Party.\r\n\r\n\r\nWith their war on drugs, and their war on the LGBT community, and their war on women\u2019s rights and worker\u2019s rights and many other facets of liberty \u2013 not to mention their apocalyptic, waiting for God, forget about the environment attitude - it would be safe to call all theocratic activists fundamentalists. As the wise teachers know, it has always proven impossible to enforce theocracy without the blood of dissenters and scapegoats.\r\n\r\n\r\nAs Election Day nears, it is important for Canadians to know what they definitely DO NOT want. The mudslinging that transpires during the heated race for Ottawa will not divide the agenda of the many Canadians who are opposed to Harper\u2019s theocratic leanings.\r\n\r\n\r\nFrankly, I wish Mr. Martin would reach out to the NDP to help spare our democracy the threat of regressive Conservative theology. Furthermore, with Jack Layton\u2019s stance on accountability and his endorsement by the president of the BC Marijuana Party, a Liberal call to accountability seeks to encompass far more than a Conservative call.\r\n\r\n\r\nConservatives are inherently poised to enforce prohibition, through a vote of rich young craftspeople and stuffy old people with stuffy old flat-earth pseudo-scientific antisocial values. Also by their spoon-fed religious biases, they would determine what is not suitable for publication, circumvent the voices of so-called sinners and blasphemers, and push society back into dark times \u2013 definitely not the key to the golden age.\r\n\r\n\r\nWill we sacrifice our Canadian freedoms for the sake of joining the Conservatives in punishing Paul Martin for some incident that has much less bearing on our civil liberties than a Conservative leader who panders to the likes of the American religious conservative Council for National Policy? Because I give my fellow Canadians more credit than Harper does, I suspect the answer will be NO.\r\n\r\n\r\nA Message for Bigots:\r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cLast Halloween, I saw four boys in their late teens sitting in a restaurant with their faces painted dark and wearing badly designed turbans. Not to mention the tacky floral print towels they used, they were apparently oblivious to how foolish, ignorant and irresponsible they looked. Although I would have been amused if a gang of like-minded individuals jumped them, but mercifully, I would have been more impressed if a group of decent citizens confronted them with a dose of diplomatic sensitivity. \r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cThe only thing my children will do with bigotry is educating those who lack the intelligence and understanding to overcome it, and make sure that bigots who create scapegoats lose their influence on dividing and conquering society.\r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cGenuine spiritual liberators have long been aware that Authorized religious information often replaces socially progressive and liberating truths with empty prayers, useless customs, obligatory denouncements, and fear of eternal separation. Dormant idolatress religion even covers up what science and spiritual progress uncover, but Her priests use these discoveries to work scriptural sorcery against those who would proselytize Her adherents and undermine Her authoritative stronghold.\r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cThe bigotry of spiritual Babylon is that to Her any good prophet is a dead profit, because She must securely guard the profits of Her false prophets. Her false prophets are the preachers who have the luxury of airtime and the open support of politicians. As they said in ancient Rome, he who rules the religion rules the region.\r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cIt is pathetic when common people foolishly give in to bigotry, and allow it to consume them, thus quenching the divide and conquer strategy of the real enemies on top of this ailing world of uncivilized religious dogma. \r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cIs this message rational? Let us ask fellow human beings like Iran\u2019s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the Supreme Leader of the Iran\u2019s Shiites who want religious control of Iraq, and let us ask President Bush and other theocratic politicians who want to be in control of other countries.\u201d\r\n\r\n\r\nHow many nations have endeavored to ward off the evil spirits of theocratic infiltration? How many nations have shed blood for theocracy? How many more nations will endure this menace? When will this world have a spiritual rebirth, and find no place for the shelter of suppression and the sorceries that she allows to freely rein?\r\n\r\n\r\nEvil has nothing to fear but the loss of those who fear it.\r\n\r\n\r\nOh look. The beast is knocking on my country\u2019s door, asking the police to talk to me for going outside the \u2018legal\u2019 bounds of acquiring attention and seeing justice served. I invite the unjust national leaders who have by far out-sinned me, to invite me to court. If a threat is what you call it, argue it a threat, libel, argue libel, but my defense speaks for itself. You seek a public example, and so too does the witness of my testimony that a threat to theocracy shall no longer bring death but serve the liberty of interactively divine democracy.\r\n\r\n\r\nLet this help in the restoration of the testimony of Jesus Christ and other martyrs who stood up against religious fundamentalism \u2013 the beast that would not die.\r\n\r\n\r\n~ I am yezbok drahcir\r\n\r\n\r\nJanuary 5, 2006\r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cLucky for Caesar that in his day of judgment he can play his idiot card or insanity card, because his smart card will not fly with intellectual reasoning and justice, but look awfully conspicuous.\u201d\r\n","author":"yezbok drahcir","parent_id":143344,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2006-01-06 11:39:48","modified":"2013-11-11 00:37:22","fileurl":""}]}
