Before 9-11 the email was generously peppered with stories about how badly
women are treated in Afghanistan with ridiculous invitations to write the
Afghan consulate or Afghan government to protest - as if that were ever
going to do any good.

Now a woman is running for president of Afghanistan.  And for the first time
in 5000 years, women will be voting.

You people who forwarded all those "write to the Taliban" campaigns ...
speak right up.
