Springtime in a garden near Kabul. In the 1920s, Afghanistan was a newly independent country after breaking away from the British Empire. For most of the decade, it was ruled by Amanullah Khan, a secular reformist who sought to modernize the country along Western lines.

  1. The Albino Englishman
    was never in charge
    of
    Afghanistan- the rats were defeated just about every time !

    CHECK IT OUT; BOY !

  2. The rats were, indeed, controlling
    Pakistan and India- they were kicked out
    of
    India but still
    remained
    in
    charge of Pakistan army.

  3. The “crazy /lazy”
    Englishman dragged
    the “US megalomaniacs” into mobilizing their
    devoted international slave armies to møtack Afghanistan.
