The thing is she was a victim waiting to happen as soon as she defied the taliban edict of no education for girls,they were burning and destroying schools at the time she was keeping her BBC blog,you cant protect a girl in a place like swat and her family already knew there were threats being made on her life,she probably wont go back to pakistan,her family neither as her dad isnt Mr Popular High profile cases like this do change things,this time hopefully for education for girls,had she been just another kid who wasnt keeping a BBC blog and been shot for it an act which captured world media attention,in that area she would have just been shot and forgotten about.
