It's such a crime that the Afghan election didn't get the media "play" it deserved.
The whole event was miraculous...especially women voting!
The soldiers that have honorably served their country, and the Afghans that have worked hard to build a free government, are not worthy of attention from the MSM. They tried to make Afganistan political but it was too close to 9-11 to succeed. Now they choose to ignore it in attempts to make our memories dim about 9-11.
I will never forget their first elections, as I'll never forget these in Iraq.
I swear when I was a child I never believed this would happen. I was taught that was just the way it was. They lived in a different culture and we should respect it, it wasn't our concern anyway. I never envisioned a free middle east.
I suppose this is the same way people felt about countries consumed by communism. I remember the fall of the Berlin wall but didn't truly understand its global significance at the time. I was just happy it was gone so families could be reunited.
To see, what I never even thought in context of a dream take place, inspires awe.
Freedom is on the March.
