Yes, it would actually. I’d take socialism over religious extremism. I mean, look at how they responded, as you said. But I don’t blame them, it makes perfect sense why they did that. I blame the US officials who thought it was a good idea to back up those mujahideen. The US officials who sabotaged peace talks to keep the war going. The anti communist ideologues who damaged this country in ways we are still seeing play out today. And let’s not skirt the fact that the US was in it to secure natural resource rights. We weren’t saving their country as much as saving our access to it. The mujahideen knew this as well, so not sure why they’d be grateful.
