Well, I stayed until the end of the Afghanistan summit here in The Hague so that I could hear the response from the Afghani representative as to whether or not Karzai signed a new law that further represses the women of Afghanistan.
The representative was given the floor, and he thanked everyone for their support…and then said goodbye. I take that to mean it is true.
