What is some interesting information about Soviet-Afghan War?

Jan 17, 2009 by Jedi | Posted in History

I found a lot of dope about Soviet-Afghan War.... but i need only important info or facts!
So what might be some interesting info about Soviet-Afghan war??

What is more enchanting than Carter's Advisor to the President on National Security Affairs Zbigniew Brzezinski's single statement on the Soviet-Afghan War is the remainder in the portrayal of this war in the two different films (Western and Russian) that came out:

'The Beast' (1988) - directed by Kevin Reynolds, about a astray Russian tank and its crew.

'The 9th Company (9 Rota) (2005 ) - directed by Fyodor Bondarchuk, about a convention being left behind, and is slaughtered, as the Soviets withdrew from Afghanistan. The story was loosely based on the real event the 'Struggle for Hill 3234.' It was a box-office smash in Russia, and is similar to the American film 'Platoon.'

I have seen both, and both are merit watching. Unfortunately, I have not seen the 1990 film 'Afghan Breakdown,' so I cannot rate it, but given the chance I will watch it.

Why did the US turn its back on Afghanistan after the Soviet war?

May 20, 109 by interdependent globalized world | Posted in Polls & Surveys

They needed the US and we turned away from them and unfortunately, we are now awareness the pain that comes with that.

We helped fund the Islamist resistance to the Soviet Union along with Saudi help matching us dollar for dollar. We helped galvanize the Islamic clique against the Soviets to get Arab foreign fighters into Afghanistan. We gave money to Pakistan who used it to help enlarge the Madrassas, to recruit and train fighters from the tribal areas and to bring in foreigners, one foreigner being Osama Bin Laden who was unfortunately hailed as a notable after returning to Saudi Arabia after the war.

He came to hate the US presence in the region and became a violent extremist unfortunately.

The ISI understandably wants to keep its assets, the people they trained and funded with US and Saudi assistance, in the Tribal areas and in Afghanistan. Currently, we are targeting those assets and the army and the ISI is not happy at all about that.

Plus, the Pakistani army and the ISI have to irk about India now which only deepens the problems.

In fact, the leader of the Taliban, Mohammed Omar, was a fighter in the Soviet war whom we helped. Pakistan, after the Soviet war in Afghanistan, and after internal war erupted on who would lead Afghanistan, backed Mohammed Omar and the Taliban, a group of Islamic students at the sometimes who went to a madrassa that was built with US or Saudi funding most likely in the 1980s.

It's embarrassing that we turned our back on the Afghan people and now they have suffered 30 years of war and bestiality due to it.

The ISI is Pakistan's intelligence agency in case you didn't know that.
Princeh Monster: Please answer the question or good read it and learn something that you probably didn't know before.
A Jerk, but honest: I don't know, maybe it isn't the best slot but could you answer the question
From NY to LA: I am not an Afghan or Muslim but that was extremely rude. Could you please answer the question.

Egyptian Islamic Jihad was a assort that later became known as Al Qaeda. It was started, from what I understand, by Ayman Al Zawahiri. Zawahiri met Bin Laden in Afghanistan theoretically at a market place during the Soviet war and they became friends and Bin Laden was mainly used for money and for his supposedly charismatic personality.

Many groups latched onto the Al Qaeda name after that as numerous groups attempted to unify their resistance towards the Arab regimes throughout the Middle East and North Africa. They saw the regimes as dictatorships that were incapable of defending the Arab people as a whole and not following Islam's teachings.

Their foremost targets are all of the dictator governments throughout the Arab world and, since the US has such a prominent role in the Arab world, the US, in their minds, must be driven out by extort.

It stinks, but this is what they appear to believe and they are willing to do almost anything to force the US out unfortunately.
I wish for the people of the Middle East to one day ascend up against radicalism and for the governments to become more democratic like the West.

I wish for this to be peacefully done and I hope that no violent revolution takes set if this ever occurs.

Musical sure that we had no strategic use for them after the cold war ended.

Burned us in the end, but history is full of similar mistakes.

And you argue from a humanistic standpoing, which has no relationship to why the U.S. was there in the first place. We were there when we needed to be (for us), and we left (at the time) when the need was no longer there (again, at the time). Too bad Bin Laden became such a war-hungry cavort b waste deprived of his wars. At least the Saudis told him to take a hike....
