Did you see that? US favorite puppet, Hamid Karzai, was at the head of a Soviet-style military parade in Kabul today. Western mercenaries (who keep him alive) were present all around. The occasion was the 12th anniversary of the victory of the mujahedeen, the army of fanatical fundamentalists who fought (with the support of the US, Saudi Arabia, and Bin Laden) against the communist government which was oppressive but promoted secularism, women's rights, education for everybody, and weakening of the clerical powers in Afghanistan.
