Instan...This some how does not surprise me at all. Instances like this are not uncommon because every political leader or public activist, good or bad, has proven to be corrupted in some way or another. Abraham Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus. Adolf Hitler lead was a catalyst for WWII and the Holocaust but he completely brought Germany out of the depression it was suffering. Martin Luther King Jr. was unfaithful to his wife. Julian Assange real eased thousands of secrets of the U.S. government and multiple corporations to the public while also endangering thousands of lives in the military and else where. Richard Nixon was very good in handling foreign relations with the Soviet Union and China but he was the key player in the water gate scandal. John F. Kennedy sent the U.S. to war with Vietnam. The organization The Invisible Children, advocated for the arrest and punishment of warlord Joseph Kony but also most of their proceeds went to advertising, employees, and so on, rather than the people they advocated for. In fact, now that I think of it I cannot find a single political leader or otherwise who has been completely free of sin. So yes it is truly tragic that the people we place in power do really shady things but it does not surprise me in the least bit.Kelceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01683563122254093066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1123593200657873076.post-68844813549073122242012-01-25T16:37:54.269-08:002012-01-25T16:37:54.269-08:00This story is very painful to read, it is shocking...This story is very painful to read, it is shocking to see how far people go to make money, lying about such tragedy and using the misery of millions of people is disgusting.<br />Afghanistan is a beautiful country with amazing people, unfortunately all we hear about is a picture of hell which is the result of decades of international interference and Afghans were hostages of the situation. Years later they still suffer from the result of other countries decisions and usage of the situation to serve their interests.<br />Today we hear that it's a cultural situation, this aberration is false and needs to be more often explained, talibans are not an afghan "creation"!!Sosofighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15713313774808728880noreply@blogger.com
