My thought comes from the story of the poor young girl shot by the Taliban because she was up front & wanting to better herself & her piers!
Shame on those who did this...Shame on them & their so called religion that allowed them to do it with a conscience! 
some religions become fanatical Slim and more so the middle east...sometimes you wonder if its just an excuse for war. That young girl will not be safe wherever she is, the only thing they can do for the whole family is new identities and relocate them, probably to a new country
