Hamid Maybe I'll join the TalibanKarzai
... A former Baltimore restaurateur, now 12th and current President of Afghanistan, displacing the legitimate president Rabanni in December 2004. He was installed as the dominant political figure after the removal of the Taliban regime in late 2001 in a vain attempt to put a
Pashtunface on the successor state to the Taliban. After the 2004 presidential election, he was declared president regardless of what the actual vote count was. He won a second, even more dubious, five-year-term after the 2009 presidential election. His grip on reality has been slipping steadily since around 2007, probably from heavy drug use...
has rejected a proposal by Afghan politicians to terminate the Special Electoral Tribunal that was established at his order to put an end to Afghan parliamentary poll disputes.
A number of politicians and the parliament speaker reportedly held a meeting with President Karzai asking him to dissolve the special tribunal, but President Karzai rejected their call.
President Karzai said he was urged by Head of Supreme Court to stop meddling in the work of judicial organisations, the politicians said.
Haji Mohammad Mohaqiq, an Afghan MP, who was leading the talks with President Karzai said Head of the Supreme Court suggested three options to the parliamentarians, but did not elaborare further.
Mr Mohaqiq sees any review by justice organisations into September votes unconstitutional.
The comments come as the special tribunal has started a vote re-count process in most provinces.
Afghan politicians had previously decided that if the president refuses to dissolve the tribunal, six members of the Supreme Court will be summoned to the house.
