I was just watching CSPAN with General Petraeus testifying and a congressman from Texas told him he was concerned about Afghanistan. According to his history, Alexandra the Great and the Soviet could not defeat the Afghans. He wanted to know if enough is being done to prove to the Afghans that we are there to help.
This is not the first time i have heard this LIE or Half-Truth on TV. The Afghans without the help of the United States would not and couldnt have chased the Soviets out of Afghanistan. If Charlie Wilson's movie is a proof, the US was fighting the Soviet Union indirectly and using the Afghans'. So why is this LIE that we can be defeated by the Afghans because they defeated the Soviet Union still being used everytime??? Tell me what you think
I dont know but this is a LIE and someone needs to call us OUT on this soon.
