Shouldn't the URSS be responsible for the creation of the Taliban? Al-Qaeda was financed by Saudi Arabia and the current Iranina regime is the result of a revolution against the American-supported previous regime. Still the US made all those problems worse, but can't hold the full blame for their creation.
- toomanybeersies 8y agoYou're right, it's not solely the fault of the USA. It's a very complicated situation. I was just alluding to the fact that the USA is fighting the Taliban in the 2010s, when in the 1980s they were funding them. Obviously if the USSR didn't invade Afghanistan, we might not be in this situation either.
