The country has gone nuts on 21:28 - Jul 23 by trampie | Afghans fought with the Soviet Union against the Mujahideen, I guess the Soviets weren't paying them but the Afghan state was, we was paying them, perhaps if the Taliban paid them more than us then perhaps they would have fought for the Taliban against us. I wouldnt fight for an invader against my country even if they offered me money, by the sound of it you would ? Lots of countries have the death penalty for treason, our country used to execute traitors and that was on the statute book until relatively recently. |
There may have been a few who fought for Russia but generally speaking the fought against them AND the Russian controlled puppet goverment. The Taliban can be traced to the Madrasas of Pakistan and took the country by force, they were not wanted which was why the people fought against them History shows us though, no foreign power has ever won in Afghanistan, the Taliban wouldn't win an open battle but as guerrilas they seem undefeatable. Now the last bit, where have I ever said I would fight against my country? If my country was taken over by a dictatorship I would fight against that to free my country and return it to democracy.. It's just you being a keyboard warrior tho, isn't it |  |
