This Rethink Afghanistan video features footage obtained from a network of The Brave New Foundation’s contacts in Afghanistan. It clearly shows widespread vote fraud during the recent parliamentary elections. The Brave New Foundation is circulating a petition to prevent US money from being spent on Afghan military forces until the Kabul government addresses rampant election fraud.
Press freedom is under attack
As Trump cracks down on political speech, independent media is increasingly necessary.
Truthout produces reporting you won’t see in the mainstream: journalism from the frontlines of global conflict, interviews with grassroots movement leaders, high-quality legal analysis and more.
