After Johnny’s death, Ponyboy wanders alone for hours until a man offers him a ride. The man asks Ponyboy if he is okay and tells him that his head is bleeding. Ponyboy feels vaguely disoriented. At home, he finds the greasers gathered in the living room and tells them that Johnny is dead and that Dally has broken down. Dally calls and says he just robbed a grocery store and is running from the police. The gang rushes out and sees police officers chasing him. Dally pulls out the unloaded gun he carries, and the police shoot him. Dally collapses to the ground, dead. Ponyboy muses that Dally wanted to die. Feeling dizzy and overwhelmed, Ponyboy passes out.
When Ponyboy wakes, Darry is at his side. Ponyboy learns that he got a concussion when a Soc kicked him in the head during the rumble, and that he has been delirious in bed for three days.
Analysis: Chapters 9–10
Underlying the struggle between the Socs and the greasers is the struggle between the instinct to make peace and the social obligation to fight. Hinton turns the rumble into a moral lesson. The fight begins when Darry Curtis and Paul Holden face off; the fact that Darry and Paul were high school friends and football teammates suggests that their rivalry need not exist—that money makes enemies of natural friends. Ponyboy’s comment that they used to be friends but now dislike each other because one has to work for a living while the other comes from the leisurely West Side emphasizes the artificial and unnecessary nature of their animosity. While this animosity seems pointless, each gang member who fights still feels a responsibility to his gang to hate the other gang.
Ponyboy feels this tension within him before the fight. His instincts tell him to skip the rumble, as he knows in his heart that violence won’t solve anything. His hesitation after speaking with Randy and his decision to take five aspirin before the fight show that he is emotionally and physically unprepared for the ordeal. Nevertheless, Ponyboy ignores his instincts and goes through with the fight because he wants to please his social group. His participation in the rumble cements his place in the gang; he is no longer a tagalong little brother but rather a fighter in his own right.
Answer:
Because he wants to keep people under his rule and within the ideology he wants to impose.
Explanation:
Radio Mullah is an Islamic extremist, cited many times in the book "I am Malala" as one of the main harbingers of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. Malala claims that Radio Mullah had a radio show, where he presented highly conservative and extremist, unscientific, oppressive and incorrect concepts. He was strongly against education, especially for women, and was even capable of bombing schools and killing people who took a stand against him.
He knew that fighting education was the main weapon for him to be able to control the population and make everyone follow their will, because the lack of education made people believe in everything they heard and did not have the ability to question and opine against wrong things. As such, Radio Mullah knew that a population without eucation was easily manipulated and that was his goal.
"I am Malala" is the book that tells the story of Malala, the Muslim girl who fought the Taliban for the right to study.
