Hi, all, I got a real good (but too long to post here) message from a friend at <http://www.womensedge.org> If you're concerned about the US administration's keeping the treatment of women in Afghanistan a priority in their negotiations with whoever the hell ends up in charge there, check out this site. They have info & recommendations for action, etc.
I don't usually "proselytize", but I thought this was important enough. warmly, walt
