The correct answer is "All of the above." The Taliban targeted Malala Yousafzai because she spoke out against their regime and advocated for girls' education, which they opposed as part of their broader rejection of Western culture and influence. Additionally, they believed that attacking her would send a message to others and potentially silence her father, who was also a vocal critic of their policies. Their intentions included instilling fear to discourage other girls from pursuing education in the region.
