September 3, 2010 - The Americans are trying again to pave the way for some demagogues faces in the coming days to reach the corridor of the parliament, in an effort to give legitimacy to the occupying forces and the puppet Kabul administration. However, the short-list of the would-be winners has already been finalized in the American embassy in Kabul. They have selected characters that passed the America criteria.
