Why is Europe/UK allowing/inviting itself to be flooded with Muslims?

When have the Russians ever not taken heavy casualties? They killed vast numbers of mudslimes tho. Not sure if that really qualifies as being btfo.

Because of jews.

But jews made communism right? "Ruskies" wanted to be all in there

Well the russians had advanced military equipment, the muslims were on horses and camels and what not

Yeah kinda. I mean most of the war was fought by light infantry over rough terrain. Maybe some of the hadjis were armed with old bolt actions but its not like the sovets were running around in power armor or something. The soviets had some decent air support which is why we gave the mudslimes stinger missiles.

Everyone gets btfo in Afghanistan.

Saw a movie about a senator pushing money for weapons. It starred Tom Hanks.
The general idea is that once afghans had anti air missiles and anti-tank weaponry the soviets got btfo.

Russia(USSR) was on a verge of political changes. Perestroika, disintegration of USSR, capitalism and westernization. Afghanistan would be last think russia will be thinking about.

You speak english very well for it not being your first language (assuming of course) Im impressed. Im trying to learn a language now

Afghanistan is just a word, a meme, there is no Afghanistan. It's a thousand different tribes with a thousand different chiefs, each with a thousand different Yak herders holding a well oiled Enfield. You can't defeat a country that doesn't exist. People only invade for the poppy fields anyway. Britain, Russia, US, all have, or will lose that fight.

They had no money. Hail communism.

Also, they made the most horrible mistake you can make when fighting an asymmetric war. They indiscriminately killed and took hostages from peaceful or indifferent villages in massive number. Thus ensuring that every single able bodied man would take up arms against them. Before they were fighting the Mujahidin, less than 1% of the population. Then they started killing everyone indiscriminately and were fighting everyone capable of picking up a rifle.

Oh, and we gave the mujahidin a bunch of man portable anti aircraft missile launchers and money and Intel. Surely that will never come back to bite us in the ass in 2001

Afghans have a lot of practice running insurgencies. Literally generations of knowledge handed down. Tactics, logistics, organisation, the while shebang.

>5.0 KDR is BTFO

Ruskies lost a lot to modern stingers and whatnot.
Hey you been there for 17 years now how's that going

They got involved in a land war in Asia.

Not well. A conventional military with rules, regulations, and oversight will ALWAYS lose to an insurgency. It's simply an impossibility.

Subversion is key. More flies with honey ect...

Pretty sure there are exceptions. Marawi comes to mind.

Pretty much this. Also we sold "moderate rebels" stinger missiles to shoot down their gunships.

We gave afghanistan surface to air shit missles to fuck russian air support....then afghan hillbillie snipers did the rest

Kek

Nah.. treat them all as enemy combatants. If they are in a hot village and are able bodied males. They are fighting.

watch the movie "charlie wilson's war'

the saudis paid for dirt poor goat herders to be armed and trained against communism cause they were atheists hah

osama bin laden was one of them, he led the mujahideen against the ruskies with the strategy of bleeding them out of cash slowly over time - the same strategy he's using on us.

17 years on, we're still there.

So the taliban are good guys? In a way?

The moderates wanted them there. Yankees fuck up the place.

At the time.

Well. In the end we actualy claim all kills need to call this a win.
Got tank helmet from my uncle he wear there. Purple item for sure.

>Hey pol, why did the russians get btfo in afganistan??

15,000 deaths in 10 years?

They didnt.

except the mongols

Alexander the Great
FTFY

It's a proven fact that our marines encountered a redheaded giant in the mountains in Afghanistan. They killed it of course, but this goes to show we have much bigger problems to worry about than Russia.

Middle East is abandoned place, better to not go fight there. If I remember correctly, there's always war there.

axeshoewally we control the opium opus so its like graveyard of empires is complete misnomer

Because rambo duh. Same reason we beat the viet cong. And those corrupt cops out in nowheresville.

You got dicked by the Viet Cong tho

It like what? around 1750 first state actualy occure in afganistan? a wild place.
whole story that lead USSR to there is also bizzare.

>why did the russians get btfo in afganistan??

a ton died in a tunnel from their own exhaust gas as they were moving in, without any enemy even being present

the rest of the campaign was executed in a similarly highly professional Russkie fashion

Because they tried to use a traditional land army against insurgents
Its almost impossible to defeat an insurgency because there is rarely a decisive battle

they were even selling all their weapons to muslims and then setting their weapons storages on fire

Why can most Americans only speak one language?

sweden showed up in finland. you did too. turns out that while moskali can keep kievan rus down for a while, reality will rear its ugly head eventually. moskali will return to their lands, but you know how the song goes; your lands are our lands, you've stolen our lands karelia is ours moskalia belongs way way beyond the urals.
even Vlad the god emperor is hardly anything other than a Rotenbergian / Ugric mongrel. check the family tree, son.

think they just don't learn it in school. while in russia even in small town i get choice between english and german. and it just mandatory - learn another language.

When is the last time white people beat muslims?

isis doesn't count because it's run by...nvm

>Soviet invasion in afganistan
Why are you calling it an invasion? Unlike the American invasion of Afghanistan, the Soviets were invited (actually begged to come!) by the Afghan government in 1980.

An invasion would be an uninvited inflow of troops for personal gain... in case of the Soviets, it was an assistance military operation. Initially, the whole thing the Soviets promised to do was to help in the major cities so that the Afghans could fight the Islamists in the hills and mountains. Only after a while were they drawn into the fighting in the rural areas as well.

Well if you ask the invader, they were invited by the legitimite ruler Kuusinen to Finland back in 1939.

>afganistan
I knew this country was never defeated
bet, US will last

*lose

>It’s their Vietnam.
It is not comparable. Vietnam was a US operation after the French had already operated there. Afghanistan was an assistance operation in favor of the Afghan government.

If anything, the Afghanistan situation was most similar to the current Syrian war. The Syrian government begged the Russians to help against the Islamists and they did.

your country as is stands a monument of defeat, lost to rurik, lost to mughal, lost to ashkenazi and their "tsar", lost to bolshevik, lost to a georgian pretender, lost the cold war... you gotta know the story then on.

>what is lingua franca
how's it feel being a bitch to the hegemony?

riiiight that's why they murdered the President and why the Afghan army was plagued with mass desertions, many of whom opted to join the insurgency.

>Well the russians had advanced military equipment, the muslims were on horses and camels and what not

Same thing applies to today's Afghanistan. You have all the advanced military hardware, yet you cannot win for the same reason the soviets couldn't win.

>many of whom opted to join the insurgency.
A few Islamists joined the Islamist insurgency paying better money than the Afghan forces (due to US funding) because the Soviets were oppressors... sure thing.

Dude, the Soviets were the guys who offered freedom in Afghanistan - freedom to go to school, university, start a business and walk around without having your hands or head cut off. The Islamists offered opium, money and Sharia law.

>a few islamists joined the islamist insurgency
it was't just islamists fighting the soviets and you have yet to explain the mass desertions, which is literally the reason the Ruskies were sucked further into the fighting because the Afghan government couldn't contain the situation themselves. Face it, nobody wanted the fucking Soviets there except the puppet government they set up. It was an invasion.

The way to win a war in Afghanistan is to do what the British did in India and Iraq. Pit one tribe against another and then get the minority tribe to be the ruling class. They'll be too busy trying to fuck each other over there will no one to launch a cohesive attack against the invaders.

Afghans didn't have food to begin with, so communism could not spread there

Because nomads can't be defeated if you aren't willing to be ruthless.

because of USA support for Mujahideen

The same way the vietnamese held off the USA

because the west sent in shitloads of stinger missiles and taught the muj how to fuck up HINDs and MIGs

In my highschool we had to take a language but most people just dont give a shit. You're either a beaner trying to learn english or you're one of the few non lazy americans trying to something on duolingo.
