Impressing this young Iranian girl, Hana Makhmalbaf, from a film-making family, who made her first film at the age of 8 (one which is still forbidden in Iran), and just filmed a movie about children in Afghanistan in the wake of the destruction of the Buddha statues.
At one moment she quotes her father, Mohsen Makhmalbaf ("Kandahar"): "If you had bombed Afghanistan with books instead of bombs, the country would not have had to suffer so much".
Hence through education you get a lot further with less sacrifice than through war. Quite self-evident I would say, but regretfully not everyone agrees.
