The US and European allies plan to create a new chief executive role in Afghanistan to bypass President Hamid Karzai, a report says.
The Guardian reported on Monday that the creating of the role, possibly a prime ministerial role, will be followed by planting a high-profile figure in the heart of the Kabul government.
"There needs to be a deconcentration of power," said one senior European official in defending the US initiative for an alternative chief executive in Afghanistan. "
We need someone next to Karzai, a sort of chief executive, who can get things done, who will be reliable for us and accountable to the Afghan people."
Karzai was put in power as a puppet president by the US and now that he won't play ball any more and wants the occupation to end they smear him with corruption charges and then look to replace him.
You just mark my words, watch for the placement of arch neocon and former US ambassador to the UN Zalmay Khalizad into this position!!
