Taliban threatens Nobel laureate Malala
A POWERFUL breakaway faction of the Pakistani Taliban threatened teenage education activist Malala Yousafzai with "sharp and shiny knives", hours after she was declared joint winner of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize.
JAMAAT ul Ahrar, which in August separated from Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) also known as the Pakistani Taliban - posted its response to the win on Twitter late Saturday.
"Characters like Malala should know that we are not deterred by propaganda of [non-believers]. We have prepared sharp and shiny knives for the enemy of Islam," tweeted spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan.
"Malala speaks so much against guns and armed conflicts. Does she not know that the founder of her recent Nobel award was the inventor of explosives," the spokesman said.
Malala, a 17-year-old education activist, survived a gunshot wound to the head by a Taliban gunman in 2012.
The mainstream TTP, an umbrella organisation of over a dozen groups, has not commented on Malala's accolade.
Malala has received praise in Pakistan for becoming the youngest-ever Nobel Peace laureate, with all major newspapers running front page stories on her achievement.

No one posting here has ever given any indication that they would ever consider supporting them. A huge insult from the OP to even hint/suggest that anyone here does.
What extremist Muslim groups do is not a reflection on all other Muslims. This thread puts them all in the same basket.

It's not that they support Isis Nero ,it's just that they can't bring the selfs to agree with anything you say.
At least that's the way I see it , as I'm not allowed to speak for them and if they do support for Isis then I shake my head in wonder
Kilroy it's not that we cant bring ourselves to agree with ANYTHING Nero says - just that we cant agree with a lot of the inferences she draws and conections she makes.
Most of us have already agreed with Nero, in this and other threads, that we DO NOT support ISIS and find their murderous rampage revolting and terrifying.
If you read the title of this thread you will see that it does not simply condemn ISIS (which we all do) but suggests that everyone who follows Islam is cast in the same mould as those who support ISIS (which is patently absurd)

Yes I did and I stand by that if any body does support Isis , I would shake my head in disbelief
Yes you did and I agree with you and hope that no one on here supports ISIS but time will tell and you never know and if they do I would shake my head as well.
I do honestly feel that no matter how left leaning some on here are that they wouldnt support ISIS in any way either....

You did say that kilroy. Not the OP's view though, see post before yours especially.
Posters are not required to agree with anything any other posters says.
I agree
I have never seen NW post anything that I would agree with.
Yep you wont as I am a conservative and right wing leaning and I dont pander to the bleeding heart or the welfare mentality or the socialist mantra and I cant stand the greens and their hypocritical thinking and socialist border line communist mantra
Usually spreads propaganda copied from other sites/blogs.
POT KETTLE etc
edit:
You did say this kilroy:
If they do support for Isis then I shake my head in wonder.

Kilroy - the above image that the OP posted at the end of is a good example of why no one can be bothered engaging with her.
An image slotted in with no explanation, no context. The image shows a coward of a man putting a dumb slogan. Why post it? What does it prove? Why post it without discussion?
It is completely irrational.

It's not even a genuine photo - it's been photoshopped from one saying "Behead those Who Insult Islam" that was carried during a protest in London in 2006.

I don't find it frightening, though I do sometimes find it a little depressing.
Mainly because I feel I am not making much of an impression with my arguments (not many people even give an indication they have read my posts . . . no or few replies, and the one who does reply often doesn't address the most important points i make, but who might take one of the least important points and niggle about that, and accuse me of not understanding, and of limited reading and knowledge, when I know that my reading and knowledge on this subject far surpasses anyone ele's here.
But, such is life, and I'll have to live with that.

anyone else's . . . thought I would clarify, wasn't having a go at she-ele 😉

Image as she ele pointed out from 2006 - protest by a group of radical Muslims in London.
However, recipients of the email should keep in mind that the violent slogans displayed by the group of protesters certainly do not reflect the views of all Muslims.
Stand by my comments - posts propaganda from other sites/blogs (never any references or links provided).

Most Muslims, like most people everywhere, are peaceable and law-abiding. So why are we continually inundated with images and hate speech perpetuating this harmful lie?
