"The problem is growing. When Pakistan became independent in 1947 it had only 137 madrassahs. Government sources put today's figure at 13,000, with enrolment close to 1.7 million."

Do we know (1) who financed these madrassahs, (2) what percentage is radical and (3) how many students have attended or are attending?

I suspect the CIA does. But either way, does that justify killing innocent women and children in cities thoughout the Middle East just because they have historical religious sites?
