Afghan horse men carry a headless calf towards the goal during a traditional game of Buzkashi to celebrate the new Afghan parliament in Kabul, 20 December 2005. Afghans welcomed the opening of their first parliament in more than three decades but echoed rights groups' concerns about the number of warlords and alleged rights violators in the assembly. The inaugural session of the first parliament since 1973 marked the final step of a transition to democracy launched when the extremist Taliban regime was toppled in a US-led attack four years ago.
