Malala is courage personified. What inspiring strength from such a young person.
Although often conflicts are oversimplified by partisans to elevate the "us" and demonize or otherwise denigrate the "them", there are times when good is indeed confronting evil, and/or enlightenment confronting ignorance. Malala's fight for girls -- in particular, for their right to education -- against the Taliban is such a case. It is moving to see such a strong and articulate activist and spokesperson for the side of good and enlightenment.
Many happy returns, Malala.
