Submission + - Afghan School "Poison Attacks" Probably Mass Hysteria - WHO (telegraph.co.uk)
smugfunt writes: A number of incidents at schools in Afghanistan, especially girl's schools, have been attributed to poisoning by the Taliban. The World Health Organization has investigated 32 of them but found no poison. "Mass Psychological Illness is the most probable cause," they conclude, the Telegraph reports.
The Taliban has consistently denied poisoning schools and have even consented to allow the education of girls in a deal with the government which allows significant Taliban control over the curriculum.
