She was shot in the head by the Taliban for reading and teaching her fellow afghan teenage girls to do the same, she was shipped to the UK where she has recovered from her horrendous injury and plans to return to her country soon Tom, a very brave wee lass.

she is one afghani that i know about,and i am more proud of her than the people of her own country....it is the muslim culture that shot her,,it is the muslim culture that rapes the women,,and i dont see the free muslims around the world saying what a great kid she is...and if people from around the world have to go and kill muslims,,i prefer we kill the sort of muslims that shot her, she is a true peace loving muslim,,,

I assume that you are male so that is why you are proud to be an Afghan, but if you were a woman, and prevented from being educated, forced into a marriage to someone you don't know, possibly a near relative, not allowed to work, you might not feel so proud.

Malala Yousafzai, shot by the Taliban for supporting women's education. Strictly she was from Pakistan though fundamentalist crazies pass freely beween the two countries.

As an Australian the only answer I can give is that we have already lost 40 of our very finest young people to the conflict that is rife in your country. If you are proud,then good for you.Be proud of the foreign forces at work in your country trying to bring peace & eliminating terrorism.I am proud of these people I would be proud of all afghanis if they would get behind the effort they are making.

A pedant is a person who is excessively concerned with formalism and precision, or who makes an ostentatious and arrogant show of learning.

Pride expresses confidence in the traditions of a nation. When we go to another nation our differences are fully exposed and show us how our differences are accepted and this can be a happy or unhappy experience. Many cultural differences seem to be shocking at first. As an Afghan on the hunt for shocking differences you should go to a nude beach in California, Gay and Lesbian nightclubs, a different church every saturday and sunday . During the weekdays visit libraries, court rooms, businesses, schools and neighborhoods. Have fun and smile a lot.
