So awful, and so admirable.

In Taliban-controlled areas, girls are fleeing for one thing: an education
By Adam Nossiter

“The girls there, they stay indoors all day. They can’t even visit relatives.” The Taliban have destroyed the cellphone towers; no chatting on phones.

Amini’s father, Nizamuddin, a farmer, sitting next to her in the shopping center, hinted at the consequences of the Taliban strictures against girls’ education: “I’m illiterate. It’s like I am blind. I have to be led by others. And so that is why I want my daughters to be educated.”

I should be compulsory reading for every teenager in the U.K.

Yes agree, we should all know the plight of these poor poor girls.
