Western hypocrisy - elections in Iran vs elections in Afghanistan

The "evidence" that Iranian election were stolen was the fact that the results were released too quickly.

This was enough for Western politicians and media to condemn the Iranian regime and cause rage and protests of the Western public.

On the other hand, the overwhelming evidence that Hamid Karzai, the Western puppet in Afghanistan, has clearly stolen the election is not causing any rage and protests.

Nearly 20 percent of the voters registered for the recent Afghan election were under age - in many cases as young as 12 years old.

This amounts to nearly 3.5 million cards issued to children.

Thousands of voting cards have been offered for sale and thousands of dollars offered in bribes to buy votes two days before the elections.

According to the most recent allegations, "up to 800 fake polling stations were set up by Hamid Karzai's supporters to give him thousands of fraudulent votes."

As the British Telegraph writes, the election rigging "was so profound that in some provinces the number of pro-Karzai votes could be ten times the actual turn-out."

In the case of Iran, no one waited to see if the allegations were true. The politicians and the media in the West attacked the Iranian regime without seeing any real proof of vote rigging.

In the Afghan case, we are told by the British ambassador to Afghanistan that any election, even the stolen election, is better than not having an election at all.

What a load of Western hypocrisy!
