"Afghanistan's Election Day: Don't Be Fooled By This Facade of Democracy
Democracy will never come to Afghanistan through the barrel of a gun, or from the cluster bombs dropped by foreign forces. The struggle will be long and difficult, but the values of real democracy, human rights and women's rights will only be won by the Afghan people themselves.
So do not be fooled by this façade of democracy. Your governments in the West that claim to be bringing democracy to Afghanistan ignore public opinion in their own countries, where growing numbers are against the war. President Obama in particular needs to understand that the change Afghans believe in does not include more troops and a ramped up war.
If the populations of Afghanistan and the NATO countries were able to vote on this military occupation it could not continue indefinitely, and peace would finally be within reach."
That LAST PART is UNDOUBTEDLY TRUE!

So the NEWSPAPER LIED, huh?
"Allegations of fraud in Afghan election mount; Opponent says turnout figures were padded" by Robert H. Reid, Associated Press | August 24, 2009
KABUL, Afghanistan - The controversy threatens to discredit an election that the Obama administration considers a key step in its strategy to turn back the Taliban insurgency. It could also delay formation of a new government and fuel growing doubts in the United States about whether its worth continuing to fight the war in Afghanistan.
Oh, CAN YOU EVER SMELL the FALSE FLAG "TERROR EVENT" coming!!!!!!!!
US and NATO officials, who were hoping for a successful Afghan election, have been quick to point out that it’s too early to determine if the fraud allegations were true....
Yeah, because THIS is NOT IRAN!!!!!
What DAMNABLE HYPOCRITES is my WAR-CRIMINAL GOVERNMENT!!!!
The Obama administration is anxious for a winner with a clear mandate to confront the Taliban, combat corruption, curb drug trafficking, and rebuild the economy.
Like they care about those last three!

And WHO BENEFITS from a RIGGED ELECTION there, readers?
Who was ANXIOUSLY HOPING for a clear winner?
