Elections in Afghanistan

Elections are going on today - read here and here and here.

More links to come. I certainly hope for an election performed well enough, under circumstances where those who wish can vote freely.

Update: more discussion in Sweden about our presence in Afghanistan here. This debate runs high these days, with massive media attention probably culminating with the election today - I do now profess to even try to mirror all sides and arguments.

On realities for Swedish troops: here and here and here and here

An Afghan on the Swedish presence (there has been more of similar both for and against, this specific article is by an Afghan, but lots of known and unknown Swedes have professed their opinions recently also).
