Til india supported the Soviet invasion of afghanistan
Mostly to make sure Afghanistan remains potentially hostile to Pakistan, so that Pakistan needs to split its army to defend against a potential soviet-afghan invasion and cant concentrate on India.
The invasion or occupation. There's a bit of a difference
man the west supporting the mujahideen did not age well
Part of them evolved into the Taliban and part remained okay with the West, not to mention that the Taliban didn’t do shit to us and the USA picked a the fight.
this India's only interest there was to inject an anti-Paki government. In the end, the Pakis succeeded in putting up a government that favors them, so they failed at their only task.
> soviet invasion
More like liberation.
Now look at afganistan now. A reactionary islamist regime, a country Destroyed by western powers, a population about to starve due to impetialist sanctions
India had a progressive government during the cold war and good relationships with the socialist democracies.
>Taliban didn’t do shit to us
True, 9/11 unironically had nothing to do with the Taliban or Osama even
Killing jihadi headchopping feudal parasites is good btw.
seething useful idiot.
Only useful idiots are the cannon fodder jihadis and NATO soldiers who got sent there in 2001.
I refuse to believe that Pakistan has better glowies than Russia and the USA.
They were trained by MI6 and the CIA.
they do and not only that their glowies get away with it while the world still seethes at muh CIA.
Soviets actually invited us to the invasion
Indian high command was informed about soviet invasion and Soviets assured us that they would even help us invade Pakistan from the east through afghanistan
They wanted us to launch a simultaneous invasion
Too bad that Indian high command didn't go through with the plan
Afghanistan was fine under the monarchy, it probably would be a half developed country if the USA and Soviets hadn’t ruined it.
Pakistan actually has surprisingly good glowies. Not better than CIA obviously, but considering they are a shit-tier country otherwise, their glowies are somehow top-tier. They've been a thorn in our side for fucking decades now. Only reason why Taliban became big in Afg and we had to move out. And the US gov't will still do nothing about Pakistan when they are such a problem for us.
>when they are such a problem for us.
Their jihadis did the USA's work in Democratic Afghanistan.
Cringe suckcialist
Afghanistan went to shit BECAUSE of the commies who killed the government before them.
