Lets not forget that she was killed by the Taliban and not the government of Afganistan. Thus she wasn't actually killed by government of a soveriegn country. So applying the "she broke the law" argument is on weak ground.
That may be so, but when the west and its allies are in a conflict with a group like this, it is good to show theocratic intolerance for what it is, most Afganistanis from what I read are still in favor of the intervention. So showing the people who are citizens of governments in conflict with the Taliban barbarism like this helps reinforce why we can't let these people regain control of Afganistan.
We're talking about a group that banned music, bombs girls schools and stones people for adultery. That should be shown. And it should be resisted.
