		<description>I think the people who are insulting Mozhdah are missing the point. Okay, so many songs on her first c.d. are covers of Ahmad Zahirs songs, do you not recall that he too did some covers of other artists music? It&#039;s her first c.d. and she is one of the first afghan women to push the boundaries that the taliban enforced on Afghans for 6 long, miserable years. That&#039;s what the main relevance of her significance is. Now when people think of Afghan women they will not automatically think of submissive abused women with no voice, instead they will think of a girl who broke the stereotypes and made her voice heard. It is a very difficult thing to be the one to push the limits and she has opened the door for many other girls to follow their dreams as well. She is brave, she cares about her background and her people which is something you haters don&#039;t do. Why don&#039;t you go write her some songs if you want her to sing something original? And to the person who said that the fact that 
Canadian Idol didn&#039;t choose her proves she is unskilled, well I just read that they were not looking for someone who had &quot;youtube success&quot; already. I am supportive of her because I am sick of the stereotypes everyone on planet earth has about Afghanistan.</description>

		<description>Well, well, how cold and ignorant can people be, why such a cold attitude towards a human being who is merely following her dreams? How many of us have the guts to do what she is doing... not many. In fact I challenge those critics to do something better. I know nothing I say will even change your mind, because I believe people that have that much hatred towards someone they don&#039;t even know is cold and sad. Perhaps even jealous... If you don&#039;t like it, don&#039;t put your precious energy into it. This world needs more people like Mozhda, who works probably harder then most people. Keep it up Mozhda. And Shame, Same on all the negative comments... go do some charity work if you want to make yourself useful.</description>

		<description>All i gotta say is this girl has made soo many afghans proud..
I give her so much credit, for stepping up and taking on this challange.  Her music is very good, she has abit of everthing in her song.  Her new song, dukhtare afghan is AMAZING.  I was blown away by that song of hers.  When i compare her to some other afghan girls who have tried to do the same, mozhdah is so much stronger than them, She is not one bit insecure and that fact that she has all the freedom she needs but yet she fighting for freedom for other afghan women makes her a great human being.  People need to stop hating on her, just cuz their jealouse of her doesnt mean they need to get all cocky.  I can go on about her, but my main point is she a great person:)</description>

		<description>Maryam jan i understand where you are coming from.. and trust me I am not one of those male who hold such views.. I don&#039;t even listen to Britiney spears or shabnam soraya or any other none afghan female singers..or none afghan music period..I don&#039;t support anyone who would think about killing an artist whether it is male or female..my only problem with what she said was that she hasn&#039;t proved herself yet.. she doesn&#039;t even have her own songs.. she doesn&#039;t even speak good dari let alone her being a singer.. You can&#039;t expect me to support and like crap simply because it is from afghan singer.. i support Hangama, wajia and even seeta qasimi who i think is the future of our music.. I am doing this because of their work . and they don&#039;t go in t.v or websites saying crap like this without proving their selves first..

I give her my two cents advise and that was to watch what she wears.. and if she wears decent clothes and have decent actions while imporving her singing.. she could gain alot of support not only for her music but also for her Cause..I have no problem with what she wears.. it is her life...</description>
