| r Fra Tom Clark, Danish Media Forum Email tomc59@gmail.com Malalai Joya kommer til Dk i næste uge som gæst af SF og Danish Media Forum. (Hun er et kvindeligt parlamentsmedlem fra Afghanisitan, nu suspenderet pga. hendes utrættelige kritik af mange af sine kollegaer i parlamentet som værende korrupte krigsherrer, krigsforbrydere, narkohandlere etc.) Der er bl.a. planlagt et seminar på DIIS (se indbydelsen forneden) 13. maj og et foredrag på Borups Højskole 14. maj (Informations annonce indkopieret her nederst). Bemærk, at fristen for tilmeldingen til DIIS seminaret allerede er i morgen, fredag den 9. maj, så man skal skynde sig. Mindre kritisk er det med tilmeldingen til foredraget den 14. Et stort tak til 1. Maj Fonden og Fredsfonden, som har gjort Joyas besøg muligt ved at donere penge til vores projekt. Jeg sender mere information efterhånden som vi ved mere om planlægningen. The Danish Institute for International Studies (DIIS) has the pleasure of inviting you to a seminar with Malalai Joya on: Warlordism and Human Rights in Afghanistan Tuesday, 13 May 2008, 10.00-12.00 Danish Institute for International Studies Main Auditorium Strandgade 71, ground floor, 1401 Copenhagen K Background The causes for the low level of security in Afghanistan are numerous, but many scholars point to the inclusion of warlords in the post-conflict reconstruction process and the later Afghan government as one of the causes for instability. Others point to the resurgence of spoiler groups, the booming drug trade and rampant criminality. The Afghan government, while having made many important strides since its inception, has limited authority outside the capital, where militias and criminal gangs remain in control. Since one of the Taliban's most popular policies was to rid the country of warlordism, some Afghans even speak nostalgically of the security and stability during their reign. Malalai Joya is Member of the Afghan Parliament. She was elected to the Parliament, known as the Wolesi Jirga, in September 2005, winning the second highest number of votes in her home province of Farah. Joya has sparked controversy in Afghanistan with her distinction between the "real Mujahideen", who fought for the independence of Afghanistan, and those she considers warlords, drug dealers and war criminals hiding behind the mask of democracy in the parliament. She holds these warlords responsible for the killing of more than 60,000 Afghans as well as the destruction of Afghanistan and calls for them to be called to justice by national and international courts. Joya has also expressed deep disappointment with the international cooperation with warlords and war criminals and the failed quest to "donate liberation to another nation". On 21 May 2007, the Wolesi Jirga voted to suspend Malalai Joya for three years from the legislature, citing that she had broken Article 70 of the Parliament, which had banned Wolesi Jirga members from openly criticising each other.
