Women's Rights as a Bargaining Chip in Afghan Politics

 This must stop! Men voting by proxy for women ‪#‎Afghanistan‬ http://buff.ly/1r6kO85

 The two men vying to
be the next president of Afghanistan, Abdullah Abdullah and Ashraf Ghani, have
pledged to protect women's rights, which have in the past year become a
political bargaining chip in outgoing President Hamid Karzai's quest for a legacy.
Both men signed a petition organized by more than 100 women's rights organizations
calling for equality and an end to violence.
