Prophets of Doom face uncertain future..
The "anti everything American" lobby has had a major setback. Free and democratic elections have gone ahead successfully in Afghanistan. In fact voter turnout may be as high as in US presidential elections,a remarkable achievement in a country just emerging from the 'middle ages'.
A recent poll taken in Afghanistan reports 75% felt free to choose a candidate, 90% said women have the right to vote and 85% thought the elections will bring positive change to the country. Most surprisingly 67% gave US troops a favourable rating.
Opponents of everything American may now have to quietly leave Afghanistan and focus on other regions where the US is trying to bring a semblance of democracy and freedom to beleaguered nations.
The score so far......Uncle Sam 1....tree huggers ..nil.
