Fraudulent Afghan election, courtesy of Wash. D.C.

President Karzai didn't win the election in Afghanistan. There was widepread fraud. Who knew? How could we have known? Even though it was already widespread knowledge that war-lords, women-oppressors and other criminals possessed the reigns of power for years after the US invasion of 2001. Even though those same war-lords, woman-oppressors and various other criminals were often essentially appointed by US officials? Tolerated by Washington, anyway, at the very least. WHO COULD HAVE KNOWN? I did. I knew that the so-called "legitimate, democratically elected government," composed of US stooges, thugs and toadies was a criminal enterprise. I knew because I cared enough about the issue to investigate it at some length! And I also that Karzai & Co. were the scum of the earth because I knew quite well the sociopathic and criminal nature of the Afghan government's patrons in Washington D.C. So who still wants to send 40,000 more American soldiers over there, to die for the LIES? Anyone, besides General McChrystal and his ilk? Can you present a reasonable case for escalation? One based on FACTS, rather than emotion, jingoistic sword rattling, and vengeance for 9/11? Even though 15 of the 19 hijakers were SAUDI citizens, according to the seriously questionable and flawed conclusions of the "official 9/11 commission" report from 2004. Even though BUSH (or at least Condi Rice) WAS WARNED on Aug 4, 2001 that "Al Qaeda is planning to strike targets in United States?"
