26. Nothing has changed for the women in Afghanistan, nothing!
Edited on Thu Nov-27-03 11:06 AM by IndianaGreen
Karzai named a religious wacko as head of the ministry on morals that still keep women in burqas and more recently viciously attacked and threatened the reigning Miss Afghanistan (now Miss World) for posing in a bikini.

You also miss the point that it is not for us to choose the government of Afghanistan. Karzai is not a democratic elected president, he was not the result of some election where women were allowed to vote. Karzai was chosen by a combined tribal and warlords council, women were kept out.

BTW, how many Afghans were among the 9/11 hijackers?

Nothing has changed for the women of Afghanistan, nothing!
