Comparing IRSM and RAWA Sites

IRSM
When I first looked at the IRSM site, I didn’t think it was much. But as I followed the links I found good basic information about what they stand for. Some of the pages had links to other sites, but you had to make the effort to find these other links. It would better serve itself to have more links on the opening page to be able to access them easier. Overall, it seems like a very basic web site.

RAWA
This site hits you as soon as it loads. There are 24 links on the left side of the page, below that are links to RAWA supporters, and a scrolling RAWA in Media box. There are fifteen links to different speeches and articles with a link at the bottom to access more. Then as you scroll down there are numerous articles under the title Reality of Life in So-called "Liberated" Afghanistan and many photo links to the right side of the page that lead to a photomontage, some with videos, most of which are not for the faint of heart. As you scroll down more to the bottom of the page there are more links to different speeches and interviews with RAWA members. This is an extensive, well put together site.
