Thirteen

Three 13-year-old girls in the news:

One was an Iraqi, a suicide bomber who killed four people as well as herself.

One is British, a leukemia patient who has been allowed to refuse a heart transplant which her hospital had planned to go into court to force on her against her will.

One was Somali, a rape victim who was buried up to her neck in a packed stadium and then stoned to death by fifty men for “adultery.”

Compare and contrast.
