everyone is meddling in the affairs of afghans except afghans themselves ; what qatar and turkey have to do with afghanistan? this is not their business .

Because Afghans (some not all) wanted to do Jihad against the Soviets and got help from Arabs, US and Europeans (NATO). These people had no good intentions. They all wanted a piece of Afghanistan, while the Russians, in that period of 1980-88, built factories, roads, schools... Now all those who helped the jihadists think that Afghanistan is their business. You should have thought about that before.

No crazier than the others. Indeed, it was not the Soviets who did the most damage in Afghanistan. And I am not a fan of the Soviet Union, by any means.

The Soviets brought Hell into being by invading Afghanistan in the first place.

The normalisation of the Soviet period is trendy. And leftists are decomplexing. The left are idiots and the GAFA billionaires are using them and their control of the media, big business, schools, and government to turn us all into a type of slave that the world has never seen....on a scale never seen.

To everyone : It is late in Moscow. I am going to bed, but I will answer you another time.
