She was shot in the head
by the Taliban
who have announced that...
she is now in hospital in England
and it seems as though she is going to pull
through
Is that right?
Yes.
The Taliban have said that they are going
to go after her again
Her crime is to be a female
who wishes to have an education
thats what we are up against
these barbaric...
And I salute you for your efforts
Thank you
[applause]
Is there anything that our foundation can
do to help you?
Well, we are not directly in contact with
her
or the people taking care of her
but
If you would like to give a message
to Pakistani atheists and agnostics
who are really brave to be an atheist
in a country like Pakistan
I would really appreciate that
The are indeed very brave
and it's a terrible thing that
people can be endangered,
can be killed, can be threatened, can be burned
simply because they think for themselves.
And go against the indoctrination
that they [and]
most of their collegues have recieved
in Madrassas in that unfortunate country.
Do get in touch with us if you know anybody
in Pakistan.
Okay. Thank you.
[applause]
