Disappointing.

Really a shame. My friend while stationed over there said it's like the stone age.

great -

interesting post

... AND THEN THE AMERICAN PIGS CAME AND DESTROYED IT. TOO BAD THEY WILL LOST THERE, JUST LIKE THEY LOST IN VIETNAM TO A BUNCH OF FARMERS WITH OLD SOVIET WEAPONS.

And then Taliban showed up.......

kingb,

No, soviets destroy it in 80's

News flash ass hole, it was destroyed long before the USA showed up. Afghanistan had a long history of internal strife dating back to the to the 1960's. The former Soviet Union spent 9 years there trying to bring it under control.

The problem was both the US and the Soviet Union wanted a government in place that would support their interests in the region.

The US and the SU would throw money, weapons and support to anyone who would attempt a coup. Add on top of that Muslim extremest who want to over throw the government and you have a powder keg.

Afghanistan's problems where created by their own government and people. The US and the former USSR just aggravated it.

So before you go running your mouth go learn something. Or go back to mamas basement and snort some more blow

Wish someone did a timeline of the decline. It was just another regular country and then just got out of control.

Who is it , that realy need to blame, need with responsibility for ruined this country fulled in this situation? CCCP? US? Alcoran?

kingb,


This is a good example of the world's mentality against the US. It is truly awesome to behold. No matter the situation, no matter how screwed a culture is or how ineffectual their country behaves, the US will ALWAYS be blamed for the worlds problems. Instead of these people examining their own issues its easier just to blame those "evil yanks". lol

It makes me sick to realize how many blind people there are in the world. Just pass the buck, I guess.

It's easier to blame everything on the Americans, that's why. Latin American countries do the same. "It's the capitalist pigs up north" they say. They don't look at their own faults.

zugzub,

i have no love for the USA but i have to agree with ya. The US didnt go there and fuck it up. it was fucked up since god knows when. even way back in the 19th century

they are too tribal.

PEOPLE in Afg should rise up to talibans those assholes need to be stopped. This country needs schools for education to get back to the present.

interesting article, though you could have made it less of a 'western' ego trip a little.

Sadly alot of countries which started to become Westernised lost out big time to their Dictators.
