Afghanistan - a betrayal or politics gone bad???

Yep. The Mujahideen was mentioned in a previous thread and one could could cast a more critical eye back historically to the 70s and 80s when the US started supporting and supplying arms to the Mujahideen because they were enemies of an Afghan government that was allied to the Soviet Union and working towards more democratic governance - the dreaded communist/socialist threat couldn't be tolerated AGAIN. The Russians eventually absconded from the region and the Afghan govt toppled. Remind you of other conflicts where they interfered with countries like this one? Vietnam? Cuba and the trade blockade? Libya? Note they originally financed and supported Saddam Hussein in Iraq!!!! Rolleyes I could go on - no need as the consistency of interfering in other countries affairs is glaring!!
