Kathy Kelly | To Counter Terror, Build Justice
: "Shortly after arriving in Pakistan, one week
ago, we met a weaver and his extended family, numbering 76 in all, who
had been forcibly displaced from their homes in Fathepur, a small
village in the Swat Valley. Fighting between the Pakistani military
and the Taliban had intensified. Terrified by aerial bombing and
anxious to leave before a curfew would make flight impossible, the
family packed all the belongings they could carry and fled on foot. It
was a harrowing four-day journey over snow-covered hills."
