How did helping the Taliban defeat Russia during the Afghanistan War help the Taliban in their efforts to resist United Nations forces today?Helping the terrorists, the US ended up financing arms purchases, hatred of the West, training and ideological expansion. Today, US investment (which has already been deposited on bin Laden himself), contemplates on the terrorist resistance and the deaths of thousands of people.There are piles of reasons the Soviet Union lost their war in Afghanistan. By asking "how did the Taliban defeat Russia" you are trying to lead my answer, which I will not allow you to perform. The Taliban did not wholly defeat The the Soviet Union and their retirement and subsequent withdrawal were caused by multiple genes.This new transparency brought increased critical to the efforts in Afghanistan. Additionally, this "war by proxy" between the Soviets and Americans (thru the Mujahadeen) was regarded as an anachronism in the historic period of Glasnost and Perestroika. The Soviets merely admitted that they were in no attitude to win a war in that country (as the British had made out twice and the Americans will fare in the near future) and if they hanged on it would be at the disbursement of their more pressing domestic issues as easily as new international relationships (oh Gorby) and they also had a large group without any aid.




In your opinion, is helping the "lesser of two evils" a sound foreign policy decision, or should the United States allow warring nations to decide matters for themselves?Our forefathers supported France in its war against England, and then let's not turn them into something they were not. As Machiavelli advised, It is always beneficial for states to endorse the lesser of two evils, though the extent of involvement has to be carefully selected.

For representative, US support for Jihadists in Afghanistan in the 1980s seemed like a smart policy at the time because it helped bring down the Soviet Union. But there is no way we could have predicted the horrible results of this conclusion once the smoke cleared. One manner to avert these sorts of problems is to use international institutions like the UN to intervene so that no individual state can be blamed later if things get bad. It may sound cynical, but it's the creation we exist in.

My opinion would be if the US was allies with anybody else in the world then we should use it to our advantage. because the US is deeply in debt to some countries so maybe the more we help them in times like that... then just maybe we can keep them off our backs.

Who of the following was NOT a European religious reformer?
kodGreya [7K]
It would be "Robertson," who was not a European religious reformer, at least not on the same level as Luther and Calvin, since these two ushered in eras of massive reform.
