I pretty much agree with The-Authority and I'm a westerner myself...
I don't doubt for a second that Malala is a very good hearted person, certainly better than most people really...
But you have to be blind to not see the whole hype, the whole business which surrounds her. She has become yet another Hollywood style marketing product.
Even her name "Malala"...Nobody calls her Malala Yousafzai or Miss Yousafzai.... No no, it's Malala™ kind of like Madonna™...
Malala™ to donate to Gaza, Malala™ to receive prize, Malala™ to hold another speech, Malala™ walks the red carpet with Lady Gaga and Barbara Streisand, Malala™ chats with Justin Bieber, Malala™ launches school fund with Angelina Jolie, Malala™ meets Bono, Malala™ meets Queen Elizabeth, Malala™ speaks at the UN general assembly etc
The examples are endless (and factual, google them).
I honestly wonder wether she herself realizes that she is being instrumentalized...Probably not as she is young and purehearted people are easily manipulated...
Again, I don't doubt she's a sincere and well meaning person but give me a break.
