Op-Ed "The Price of Going to Class"

In this article, the actions of the Taliban show us that they wont stop until Afghanistan is under their control and that they are a completely Fascist. Fascists believe that violence is a natural part of survival, and that only the strong can and should survive by being healthy, vital, and agressive through conquering and eliminating the weak. From this we can clearly see the Taliban is promoting violence, conquering Afghanistan, and eliminating the weak by throwning acid on girls to stop their view of "weak" from getting any stonger through education. I also see that the girls see education as the Taliban do except the complete opposite because they feel that "Education is the way to improve our society". Mahmood Qadari clear sees what the Taliban sees that it is the only way to defeat them with out weapons or the military. Lastly, we can easily compare the motives of the Taliban with the Nazis in Maus with eliminating the "weak" and conquering.
