This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Malalai Joya is a heroine.

The post-invasion human catastrophe in Occupied Afghanistan involves the following: non-violent deaths from deprivation 3.2 million; violent deaths up to 4 million; 3-4 million refugees plus a further 2.5 million Pashtun refugees generated under Obama war policies in NW Pakistan - an Afghan Holocaust and an Afghan Genocide as defined by Article 2 of the UN Genocide Convention (see "Pro-Zionist Western genocide denial": Pro-Zionist Western genocide denial ).

UNICEF informs us that about 1,000 Occupied Afghan under-05 year old infants die EVERY DAY in Obama US-occupied Afghanistan, 90% avoidably and due to deliberate, remorseless US Alliance war crimes in gross violation of the Geneva Convention (see "Hey, hey, USA, how many kids did you kill today? Answer: 1,000
": Hey, hey, USA, how many kids did you kill today? Answer: 1,000 .

The bottom line in any comparative analysis of violent wrongdoing is consequential death. The current "annual death rate" for Occupied Afghan under-5 year old infants under the US Alliance is 7% - as compared to that of 4% (for Poles under the Nazis in WW2), 5% (French Jews under the Nazis and the Nazi-collaborator Vichy régime in WW2), 13% (Australian POWs of the Japanese in WW2) and 19% (Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe) (see "Polish Holocaust (1939-1945) & Afghan Holocaust (2001- )": Polish Holocaust (1939-1945) & Afghan Holocaust (2001- ) ).

The Afghan Genocide is dwarfed by the looming Climate Genocide due to unaddressed, man-made global warming - underscored by the looming Copenhagen failure - that is predicted to kill 10 billion non-Europeans this century including 6 billion infants, 3 billion Muslims, 2 billion Indians, 0.5 billion Bengalis, 0.3 billion Pakistanis and 0.3 billion Bangladeshis (see "G8 Failure Means Climate Genocide For Developing World": G8 Failure Means Climate Genocide For Developing World ).
