From what pictures I've seen and accounts I've read of the time, Afg was beautiful in the 60s and 70s.

This was before the US-instigated (according to Zbigniew Brzezinski, NSA under Carter) Russian invasion, and later hardline Taliban types funded entirely by Western govs and Saudis. So yeah, round of applause.

> another decade or two after another group of “folks” launch an attack on the west.

UH HUH.
:lol:


Somebody from the UK scolding against invasion, starting wars, and leaving a region in worse shape than when they arrived. Did somebody spike your tea?
oh we've definitely played our part in Afghanistan... going back 150 years... and also because of paranoia about the Russians.

But this is exactly my point... US AND UK (and SOVIET) interference is what lead to these douches in the first place.

That's a shit argument and you know it.

But if you really want to play that game, my ancestors stayed at home when others sailed off to start a new life on someone else's land.

Anything that happened in the last 100 years is a valid argument, 2,000 years if you are a Christian.

Fine, pick an arbitrary number of years of history I should feel guilty for.

Your argument sounds like the current dispute with Argentina. A bunch of Latin Americans complaining that the Falklands is a product of European colonialism. :lol:

But since you've picked 100 years, what have we done in the last century that we haven't done with the US? Apart from voluntarily dismantle the old empire, of course.

Where were you when I actually made that comment about a month ago? I no longer have the steam or interest in discussing it. :P

Oh, right. Wasn't following the dates. Thought this all popped up recently.

But what hot topics do we have now? One prolific poster has retired and another had his thread erased.

fixed for accuracy.



or am i off base?

i can't say i remember the last time i saw someone come to the interwebz aid of any of that group on this forum. prostitutes, sadomasochists, and hedonists of all backgrounds and persuasions will be feverishly defended first.
