Afghanistan had a democratically govt. 1978, which had allied with the Soviets. Your spineless buddy
Carter chose, in 1979, to begin training, arming and funding the mujahadeen in an effort to destabilize the democratically elected Afghan govt. CARTER'S ACTION DIRECTLY CAUSED THE SOVIET'S DECISION TO INVADE IN 1979 , precipitating the 9 year war. MANY COUNTRIES FUNDED THE MUJAHADEEN, NOT JUST THE U.S. But it was CARTER'S ACTIONS, not Reagans which led to the eventual Taliban regime and Bin Laden's evolution into terrorism.
