What about Russia's previous failure in Afghanistan, though? They weren't trying to install a democracy there.

- dillondoyle 5y agoThey were still trying to install a regime against the people's will. And the Soviet army at that time (which judging by ukraine was maybe better than Russia now despite worse tech?) doesn't even come close to the unimaginably grossly powerful weapons & military we have in the US (just using colorful language, my personal belief is on the whole beneficial even though causes plenty of pain and suffering).
