created then lost to
Then again, we destroyed USSR with (proto-)Taliban. So you win some, you lose some.
Yes, that turned out really well for everyone I’m loving the end of history
Yeah, it was good for a decade or so but the downhill was pretty steep and thorny.
they also made Libya slavery free. Serbia and Bosnia are doing super great now.
Every time i see anything to do with NATO i think about the fact that Libya had a higher standard of living than the Netherlands before NATO and open air slave markets after NATO.
Tbf they were heading there even without NATO intervention. The moment people started to go against Gaddafi, that Country was doomed.
Serbia committed genocide, they should be doing badly. Bosnia was the victim, their doing badly is not great though.
In fairness so did the Soviets
The Taliban formed after the fall of the Soviet Union post soviet-afgan war when the communist government collapsed after the withdrawal of Soviet troops.
The US spent decades in Afghanistan (even during the severe weakening of the Taliban in 2001) only to have it result in full Taliban control of the country in 2021. (20 fucking years)
The Soviets couldn’t “lose” to a group that hadn’t coherently formed yet, unless you count the Afghan mujahideen as the Taliban which is very historically disingenuous in the same war that had heavy foreign intervention from all sides of the geopolitical sphere.
So no: not “fairness.”
I did count the Mujahideen as the Taliban, I know they’re not necessarily the same group but I figured it was close enough for a comment on a meme. I see now that I was wrong.
They also created Vowsh 😔
wrong. vuash created nato after genociding a village of children and trying to come up with a more efficient method
I will have you know that Vuooash shot these people cause in his opinion they were mistreating their horses, which goes against the principles of Anarcho-Bidenism-NATOism…
In fact, we “Rule You”…stares in Gladio and Brabant killers.
