What Russia could have learned from Afghanistan.
The West (and in particular the US) will come to the aid of anyone( be they thugs, fascists,religious zealots, megalomaniacs, psychotics of any stripe, etc.) who wishes to take up arms against Soviet Russian aggression. It's good for our economy. Plus, we haven't forgotten that those damned Rooskies tried to set up a Commynist Gubenment based on principles that are an anathema to the foundations of the Capitalist Tycoon Gubenments created in the West. We'll never forgive them for that, by God.
