Afghan star sings away criticism - 13 Feb 08

Afghanistan's version of the American Idol TV talent quest is nearing its conclusion, amid soaring popularity, especially among the young. But some contestants on the show are facing criticism. Many fear the show threatens Afghan traditions. Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr met one of seven hopefuls still in the race to be this year's Afghan Star.

Every one had a hand in selling Afghanistan, I am sure you agree

Shame on you all Afghans here, we are all one nation, we are all called Afghans no matter what we are. Instead of spreading hate among your own Afghans, do this to Iran and Pakistan who are the reason behind our destroyed country.
