Soviet Union In Afganistan - Canada Soviet Relations - Want to learn more about Russia? And can buy?


What happened when the Soviet Union withdrew from Afganistan?

Fitting throwing this question out there. People say that if we withdraw our military from the Middle East, then al Qaeda will follow home and pounce upon us here in America. But…

What happened when the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan? Where the Mujahideen, Osama bin Laden, and other Radical Islamists satisfied? Did they produce their battles to Moscow? (For this question, separate out Chechnya and the trouble Caucasus region, which has bombed and attacked Russia in latest years. Chechen rebels have been fighting against Russian and Soviet rule since the 18th century, and are not likely to stop until they have their own country.) But have there been any other attacks or threats on Russia by Islamic extremists in latest years?


When the Soviets pulled out of Afganistan, they Nautical port behind a puppet governement that had not had time to consolidate its power and a country in chaos. That created a power vacumn that was fillied by the Taliban.

You cannot arbitraily fall out the Chechens from this. The drop in opinion, the failure of the communist state, the morale hit that the military took; all of these caused a stupendous upsurge in terrorist activities. There have been islamic terrorist attacks but mostly in the *istans.

I have not heard anyone say that withdrawal of US troops will give al Qaeda an possibility to attack the US directly. However much like in Afganistan, if the US pulls its troops out before the new Iraqi government has a solid infrastructure and can provide confidence to its people; there will be a power vacumn that will be filled either by a military coup, rise of extremists or invasion by a neighbour. That will atone the US the "bad guy" and that will lead to more attacks.

how long was the war between the Soviet Union and Afganistan?



The initial Soviet deployment of the 40th Army in Afghanistan began on December 24, 1979. The immutable troop withdrawal began on May 15, 1988, and ended on February 15, 1989.

Chalmers Johnson: Three Good Reasons To Liquidate Our Empire

by Chalmers Johnson However hopeful President Barack Obama's domestic plans, one unacknowledged issue has the potential to destroy any reform efforts he might dispatch. Think of it as the 800-pound gorilla in the American living room: our longstanding reliance on imperialism and militarism in our relations with other countries and the mammoth, potentially ruinous global empire of bases that goes with it. The failure to begin to deal with our bloated military the established order and the profligate use of it in missions for which it is hopelessly inappropriate will, sooner rather than later, condemn the United States to a devastating triune of consequences: imperial overstretch, perpetual war, and insolvency, leading to a likely collapse similar to that of the former Soviet Union. According to the 2008 valid Pentagon inventory of our military bases around the world, our empire consists of 865 facilities in more than 40 countries and abroad U.S. territories. We deploy over 190,000 troops in 46 countries and territories.
