zackster Afghanistan has been a mess of our own making since Jimmy fucking Carter was in office.
I’m no historian but I think it goes well before that. Those are some tough damn folk who don’t mess about. Took the full brunt of the Soviets and said Soviets were like, nah, fuck this…you win. Took on 20 years of American occupation, drone strikes, everything else, and won. Took both army’s weapons along the way.
All I know is if aliens invade the earth, I recommend sending Afghanis. Those people hard as hell. Solid Kebabs, too.
