In the Name of Allah Most Gracious Most Merciful

An American Mothers Letter to Karzai

October 25, 2010

To Mr. Karzai and Members of the Afghan Puppet Government:

Asalaam Aleikum. My name is Sheri Mohmand. I was born in the United States intoa highlyrespected family, which has been in the United States for hundreds of years; some of my ancestorsfought in the American Revolution and the Civil War. I am an attorney. Over twenty years ago, Ibecame a Muslim and married an Afghan man, Abdul Kadir Mohmand. I have been thinking aboutthese issues for the past nine years.

Mr. Karzai, arent you embarrassed to be a puppet of the US and foreigners? You ar

e worshippingUS dollars and foreigners instead of Allah.

What happened to your Afghan honor, desire for independency and dignity? Did itdie with thepassing of true Afghans like my father-in-law Khan Mohmand? My father-in-law once told me thattrue Afghans do not dance for others. What has happened to you? Why do you dance for USleaders and dollars to put in your large bank accounts?

Members of the Afghan Government, arent you embarrassed that your president is apuppet and

you are part of a corrupt puppet government? Here in the United States we do notallow members of

our executive (President, Vice President etc), judicial (judges), and legislative (Congress) branchesto be on the payrolls of foreign intelligence and controlled by foreign governments. We do notallow foreigners to draft our constitution or bodyguard our president. We do notallow foreign

armies to occupy our country. Why do you?

As an American Muslim woman married to a true Afghan man, I am embarrassed for you. Every

time I see you on television, I cringe with embarrassment and I am sad for the Afghan people. Afterthirty years of suffering, the Afghan people deserve stability, peace and true independence. They donot deserve occupation, war, a puppet government, and corruption. Are you not embarrassed thatAfghan children are starving, being raped and sold, and Afghan women are havingto resort toselling themselves in foreign countries to survive while you, your families andfriends arebenefitting from this war and occupation-you are building palaces in Dubai and around the worldand putting large sums of money in your bank accounts? Why do you allow occupyin

g forces toenter into and raid Afghan homes to question and seize the men and humiliate, harm and even rape

the Afghan women and children? Arent you ashamed about the killing of innocent Afghansespecially the escalation of war and the massacring of innocent Afghans in the Pashtun areas?

Are US dollars more important to you than your dignity, independency, honor andthe lives of

Afghans? Is money more important than the honor and well being of the Afghan women andchildren? Is money and so-called power more important to you than Islam?

How can I teach my Afghan children to be proud of their Afghan heritage when they are witness toyour shameful behavior? You, Karzai, do not need to be president and you membersof the puppet

government do not need to hold any kind of leadership positions. You are withoutdignity and

honor.

Sincerely,

Sheri R. Mohmand, Juris Doctor (JD)
