Why the Taliban should kill me and several million other people

The Taliban is rightly described an Islamofascist group.

Fascist on the include/exclude principle. If you are part of us, you are superior (see Hitler and the master race), if not you are to be enslaved, tortured and/or killed.

Change Hitler's  master race for the Taliban's version of Islam - Islamofascist.

Easy enough to define, and historically accurate.

They have now claimed (as Fascists are wont to do) that they were perfectly at liberty to attempt to murder somebody. In my book attempted murder is attempted murder, and all parties involved in pursuing it (including encouraging someone to commit murder) should be prosecuted with all the force that the civil law should throw at them, so the Pakistani government in this instance should be rounding up all possible suspects.

Anyway their claimed justification of the attempted murder of Malala Yousufzai falls into three categories:

1.  Because she had spoken out against the group.
2.  She had praised U.S. President Barack Obama.
3.  She was propagating against Islam.

In the last case I believe that she is actually a Muslim, as are her family members, but she does not belong to this pre-medieval version of it which the Taliban propagates (a bit like the difference between being a Catholic conservative and a Fascist in Hitler's Germany).

Anyway on with the motley.

Take my case and compare where I stand.

1.  I think that the Taliban are a load of murderous, ignorant, barbaric, pre-medieval, good-for-nothing, mediocrities. You cannot compare them with slime, slime is far better than that. Wiping them off the face of the earth would be one of the best things that could happen to everything on the planet! Does that sound enough like speaking out against them?
2. Obama is not amazing, but he is better than Bush ever was, better than Romney can ever be, he had his priories right in Iraq, has not made the mistake of invading Iran, ordered the end of the Islamofascist leader Bin Laden, has the US economy in a stronger shape than it would ever have been if left to the US Republican Party (12-15% would be the rate of unemployment now, and the debt would not have been any lower with a GOP President, and the auto industry would have been considerably reduced in size with all the associated lost jobs), which in turn helps the world economy from sinking any further. He is a nice guy, a good father, and he has his head screwed on. Another term (which sadly he won't get) and he might get close to matching Clinton - the best US President of my adult life. Is that enough praise for you?
3. She was propagating against Islam. I do not think that she was, so let me start instead. Like all religious beliefs, Islam is a load of superstitious garbage with no scientific basis, and nothing to hold it together except fear. Allah, let us state quite clearly, does not exist and hence is incapable of revenge!  Only the brainless and the brainwashed could ever accept such a load of ridiculous codswallop as Islam, though the prospect of being killed if you dare to oppose or renounce it (as any sensible person with any brains normally would) tends to keep even the most talented of the proverbial of sheep in the proverbial pen. There is no need to believe in the proverbial (and non-existent) Hell. Two days living under a strictly Islamic state should be enough to ensure that you believe that Hell really exists on Earth. Something you could not say about a country like Germany or the Netherlands. And as for Shariah Law - if ever there was a load of antiquated junk upon which every textbook should be destroyed as an insult to humanity .... Enough propagation for you?

I think at this point that I have proved that I have done enough to merit the same punishment from the Taliban - if they have the right to carry out any such punishment. WHICH THEY DON'T!

And I suspect that on this issue millions will agree with everything that I have just said.
