Ultra-conservative extremists have been blamed for poisoning the drinking water at a high school in north Afghanistan - making more than 150 girls seriously ill.
Students in the northern province of Kunduz suffered nausea and vomiting; and some were left in a critical condition - a government education chief said. Radicals who are fiercely opposed to female education may have carried out the attack - the official added.
Some of girls were allowed home after hospital treatment, but many remain unwell.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
