| Will charges be pressed against those who stole the Afghan elections? |
|
Edited on Tue Oct-20-09 09:07 PM by PinkOwl
By now we all know that the UN determined that a massive fraud took place in the elections in Afghanistan, almost entirely in favor of President Hamid Karzai.
An election doesn't steal itself.
Will the irregularities be investigated? Did Karzai have any involvement? Did we have any involvement? If others were responsible, will they go to jail? Around where I live, if you steal a bike, you go to jail. Is stealing an election less of a crime? What will the UN do? Will we pressure the UN to find the culprits and bringing them to justice?

And it is troubling that you had to make it at all. Seems it something most people would understand. That they don't is a bit scary.
