Under Hamid Karzai, Afghanistan is not safe place where bomb blast often kill US-NATO troops and Afghan civilian. He is also fail to build a local security and Afghanistan force and his administration is full from corruption. In Hamid Karzai era, the drug trafficking is sky rocketing. Hamid Karzai is not an ideal leader for Afghanistan and Washington. An Afghan business said that Karzai' administration is worst than Taliban. He complain about the approval of his business plan that must wait for it.
Unfortunately, US has no option for other candidates in the second run of Afghanistan election. The strongest rival Dr. Abdullah Abdullah has decided to run off from the election. He accused the election was not fair and he want the election committee is changed. Abdullah alleged Karzai rigged the voter by using government resources including the election committee.
There is no other way, United States should cooperate with Karzai for five years. Certainly, US is not strongest at five years ago because they should share the power with Iran and Russia. As Gulbuddin Hekmatyar told that Karzai's winning is also Russia and Iran winning. United States has made a fake election but they were also tricked by their alliance, according to Hekmatyar.
