    I don’t
    believe it- the
    Russian and Western
    strategists and their ground personals
    have had been, all along, working
    together as one supporting team
    in
    an
    order to
    check and undermine the rising
    of
    any serious liberating
    forces
    in and around
    Afghanistan.

      Sorry:
      ==========
      Meant to say;
      “ground personnel“.

    In
    an order
    to
    appease the Russian
    social and political elite, the Western military authorities were
    purchasing and deploying
    lots and lots
    of
    cheap but deadly
    weapons and equipments
    from
    Russia and its allies.
    .

    *Not to mention;
    Russian soldiers
    of
    fortune
    and
    smuggling
    rogue pilots.

    *sure thing;
    without the tacit
    support and approval
    of
    the
    Russian overlords,
    the
    military planners
    of
    the
    Western world would have had never been able
    to
    enjoy
    the
    advantageous positions
    to so
    rapidly and effectively
    harness, expand and exploit
    those
    critically-needed bases
    of
    the
    ex-republics.
    .
    It greatly facilitated deadly
    aerial missions
    and
    the
    launches and deployments
    of
    numerous
    military personnel; secret agents
    and
    the
    special multinational
    forces
    across vast swaths
    of
    rugged and inaccessible
    northern zones
    of
    *Afghanistan.

    *Now; it is
    your turn
    to
    make
    a sound
    judgement !
