The War in Afghanistan
Twenty eight years ago Russian army has entered Afghanistan. They stayed there for 9 years and more than 15,000 Russian soldiers were lost dead, much more were wounded or had psychological problems in their civil life later. The troops that were fighting against Russian army at that times were actively supported by Pakistan and Western World as an opposing effort of the Free World against the Evil Empire - USSR.
One of the most notable leaders supporting the rebels against the “Russian oppression” in Afghanistan was a Western supported Osama Bin-Laden. A few years later, when there were nobody to fight against in Afghanistan he found new victims for his fight. Now in the Free Western World that supported him before, with all the tactical skills his people were studied by Western instructors. In Russia there is a proverb, something like “Don’t dig a hole for someone else, as you will fall into it yourself”, some Russian soldiers found that it was true in this occasion, after learning that those guy they fought for years, took over the Afghanistan after they left and started to fight now against his supporters.
These are photos from that time when the Russian army was still there, mainly from private archives.

GO RUSSIAN SOVIET!!!
Shah rule was not very progressive, but it was much more peaceful. Soviet intervention ruined the peace and balance of power was lost. Shah hold not too Islamic rule, but still Islamic. Balanced rule. Soviet occupation forced Islam to grow because religious feelings gave to people overwhelmed by supreme Soviet army moral to fight for. Logic like that: “Why Soviet army invaded Afghanistan?” “Because people were not following Islam in right way anymore” “How to free country from Soviet occupation?” “To be more religious, to fight to death for Islam and Afghanistan” - Now younger generations have grown more religious because Soviet intervention and unfortunately are fighting against secular world order and growing opium to Western markets.
Its Fox news shit for sheeple!
Historian you’re brainwashed moron go to hell
Their salary makes them brainwashing themself and us.
If that is true than you must include the Great Game British attempts to colonise Afghanistan and Natos current campain in Afghanistan too.
Not only that but i beloeve you are wrong in that. Afghanistan and it’s islamic people have their very own traditions and religious beliefs that everyone of them has to follow so it doesn’t make that much difference, on the other hand America destabilizing and distansing away Ukraine from Russia has a big impact on Russia, not only does it prevent economic and political relations between Ukraine and Russia but eventually turn virtally same poeple against each other. Having said that ofcourse half of the Ukrainian population in the eastern areas will always feel more Russian while the western parts will become anti-Russian and this will and always have created opposition and political unsureness inside the country in a sence of a lost direction of movement, to the east or to the west.
LOL we weren’t the one that starved half the people of the Ukraine to feed Russia.
I know, you are right, I am sick of this conspiracy, even my anti-spam word was “Russian”, I don’t want to be Russian anymore. On the other hand those Ukrainians are really Russians, and therefore it was Russians starving Russians.
It was not Russian starving Russians or Ukrainians. It was Russian, Ukrainian and other soviet people dying of hunger, whiich is, agree, a bit different.
What a complete bullshit!
1) Half of the Ukrainian people would be 14 million dead. Only a mad man can believe in such figure.
2) Starvation was not in Ukrain only but in many other regions of USSR too.
3) There was a number of various reasons of this starvation, but one of them was to allow my and many other Russians’ and Ukrainians’ forefathers beating fucking nazis.
Dont forget that Stalin was a Georgian.
I really wished the soviets would have won, we wouldn’t had this Taliban shit then.
Thanks a lot CIA for again fuking up my country.
Bitches need to spend some time in Detroit so I can show you where your REAL focus should be.
The Soviets were only fighting to help the Afghan communist leader who was about to be overthrown. If Svoiet Union would win, it would win against the islamist extremist groups and replace the Afghan system back to communism.
You know, in a way the focus of the CIA WAS in Detroit and other big cities of the USA during the Afghan war. At least considering as how groups like the Mujahideen bought their american weapons mainly with opium money, and a lot of the opium found it’s way to the USA as heroin…
But yeah, seeing all the fucked up stuff that’s going on in Afghanistan these days, the USA (and maybe all of us) would probably have been better off if they had just let the USSR have the damn place. Though that might have meant that the USSR would never have broken up if they wouldn’t have had to spend all their money fighting in the Middle-East - which, incidentally, is what the USA is doing right now!
Still, I would have loved to have seen the ass-kicking that would have ensued if 9/11 had taken place in Moscow…
How about “I really wished the soviets would have not invade, we wouldn’t had this Taliban shit then.”?
What was the reasoning behind the original Russian invasion? Its a wasteland with nothing but mountains, rocks, and militia. There is almost no oil, their only exports are drugs, and the moon has a better climate. Who in their right mind would want to put any resources into this country?
Didn’t Tom Hanks just do a movie about this?
It is fairly simple. Soviet goverment was spreading the idea of communism, in same way Americans are spreading their idea of capitalism today. It was always about power…
You can say that this war was a mistake that has shown a weakness in the Soviet party system along with an economic downfall from inefficient management and burocratic communist party leaders who became so pathetic, they could shit their pants from being scared, not like Stalin indeed.
“What was the reasoning behind the original Russian invasion?”
Regime change. They believed the pro-Soviet fanatical communist leader Amin was a secret CIA agent.
“Its a wasteland with nothing but mountains, rocks, and militia.”
Strategic position between Russia, Iran, China and India (/Pakistan).
I’m reminded about a Bible verse that says, “I AM AGAINST THEE O GOG, CHIEF PRINCE OF MESHACK (MOSCOW) AND TUBAL (TOBOLSK). ” I specifically like when it says that all that will be left of your army will be BURIED in Israel. Oh, and that proverb that say something about digging a hole for us to fall into…the above verse mentions the hole your digging in Iran…enjoy
Wow. Another good soul victimized by an organized religion and brain washed by the US media.
Its funny and sad at the same time.
Do you know that almost no Americans realize that the West SUPPORTED this thug Osama originally?
This is why flag-waving idiots believe that this stupid war on terror is everyone else’s fault but our own.
It is Amerikka who dug the hole, and first Soviets fell in, and now we fall in, and now we are covering up the hole on top of us so that we never get out.
Just waiting for giant asshole to come and shit all over us first so that we have something to eat while we sit in this hole now.
This is a good portrayal of the scenario indeed. Osama must be caught and hanged on a cross!
No! He should be hanged by his balls!
Oooooouch, ma ballz!
Wow, no - I never knew that! Despite the fact of course, that it’s been on the History channel for the last 10 years and that unknown idiot John Edwards repeatedely told everyone about it - but who’s watching his stupid high rated show anyway? Not Americans of course. Americans are all dumb and they wives are fat - right?
like your anti-spam codes tovarich. Hehe.
I am an american and can affirm that americans are indeed dumb. Look at the shite they let George II get them in to. They didn’t want to go into Iraq, then let fat ass drum beating turn them into rooters for war.
Osama was not associated with the CIA program to arm the Muj. He was involved with a completely separate organization, raising funds from wealthy arabs.
deepfreezevideo:
The entire craptastic history of that shit-hole Afghanistan predates the involvement of “Amerikka” by a *LARGE* margin.
By the way, how would you characterize the Soviet involvement in the Vietnam conflict?
P.S. My anti-spam word was “kgb”. How’s that for serendipity?
Tell me about this “SUPPORT” please. Also, sources.
Hey deepfreezevideo, pull your head out of your ass and quit speaking for the rest of America. I knew that the initial ops in Afgan. were supported by the CIA and they supported Osama to push out the Russians. Plenty of Americans know that. Just like the rest of the world, we have dumbasses like you everywhere. Speaking out and doing things without any logical foundation for their actions.
You know, every country has made plenty of mistakes ehhh hem… Communism. Yeah so at least were making an active effort to stop the monster we, well we didn’t create it, just supported it for a bit. It was always there. America did not create terrorism.
Yes, but it seems like Amerca is using terrorism partly to it’s advantage in terms of international intervention and increase of economic and political influence.
Like I said, we dug the hole, they fell in and now we fell in after them.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with that statement.
Sorry if the truth hurts a little.
You know the phrase “my country right or wrong”??
Here is THE REST OF THAT PHRASE:
“My country, right or wrong; if right, to be kept right; and if wrong, to be set right.”
Go sell jingoism somewhere else, we’re all stocked up here.
“I knew that the initial ops in Afgan. were supported by the CIA and they supported Osama to push out the Russians. Plenty of Americans know that.”
“Plenty of Americans” must be wrong, then.
When was the election held and why did I not get the memo that I was chosen as the speaker for all America. Go suck a tailpipe and worry about your own mental deficiences which are legend.

Эммм… я чего-то не вкуриваю. Вы о чём?
Белоснежки, Блестящие — каким они здесь боком?
Snow White от 9 Рота. Not sure if I understood the question.
Just beginning to learn Russian. Liked the film though.
For crying out loud, anybody here know something called “History Books witouth ideology in it”.
USSR invasion of Afghanistan was their last try to set a foothold in the Middle East and control the oil flux from it.
They try it in the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s and failed every time.
No wonder that after this failure either, USSR collapsed (alright, there’s much more in this, but I wonder what will happend to the world if URSS effectively control a large portion of that area).
[ ]’s
I think if they were going after oil they probably would have invaded a country with actual oil! Take your own advice and read a history book. The war was an ideology war.
These are very interesting and historic photographs. Thanks for posting them.

This is the birth of the Taliban and al-Kaeda. The outcome of this conflict would have been much different if the USA stayed out of it, and by not financing or arming these ferocious beasts.
No, it would have not. Because it is insanely difficult to fight a partisan war in any time, place.
yes, it wouldve been. imagine the iraq ‘insurgency’ being fought with no iranian money or support, and none of the experience that the iraqi al qaeda presently have
My dear man, you need to study up more.
It was in fact JIMMY CARTER who provided the initial four hundred million in funding to Osama, and it was Reagan who, in a 1985 press conference, referred to Osama as a freedom fighter.
You cannot kill the messenger simply because you don’t like the message, unless of course you agree with old Soviet form of free expression. Maybe you should help rebuild old system.
“It was in fact JIMMY CARTER who provided the initial four hundred million in funding to Osama, and it was Reagan who, in a 1985 press conference, referred to Osama as a freedom fighter.”
Sources for this total bullshit?
(Apparently you think Hekmatyar and bin Laden are one person.)
http://www.slate.com/id/2102243/
http://www.conservative.org/pressroom/reagan/reagan1985.asp
Need some more links, asshole?
Oh yes.
Link 1. Nothing about the “fact JIMMY CARTER who provided the initial four hundred million in funding to Osama”.
Link 2. Contains no words “Osama” and “Laden”, and even “Arab” whatsoever (yes, I checked).
Read your links before posting, you idiot.
Little man, go split hairs somewhere else.
Osama’s relationship with radical Islamic organizations, including but not limited to The Mujihadeen, is established history. Reagan didn’t write a cashier’s check and make it out to UBL, he didn’t specifically name UBL at the CPAC speech.
This has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the Reagan administration had high level contacts with fanatical religious militant factions during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, we tried a gambit and now three decades later that gambit has BACKFIRED on us.
Not only has that gambit been played in Afghanistan, but the same gambit was played by the same administration with the Hussein regime at roughly the same time, and it too has backfired on us.
Furthermore, PREVIOUS administrations supported overthrows in Iran, in 1954 with the sacking of President Mossadegh as a favor to the British.
Mossadegh’s crime? He nationalized the oil companies after repeated abuses by the Brits.
He got fed up, he was democratically elected, and next thing you know he’s on his ass and The Shah is in, with full material and financial support of the United States.
These are facts. Don’t like em? Tough shit.
It doesn’t change the point that our meddling has now created an atmosphere that is highly dangerous for our country. We have over three hundred years of history with Muslim militants. The goddam Marines were created in RESPONSE to problems with radical Islamics.
You would THINK we finally LEARNED.
And one last thing.
In 1958 Admiral Hyman G. Rickover, regarded as the father of the nuclear Navy, gave a speech in which he warned the USA of the dangers of dependence on a sole source of energy particularly FOSSIL FUELS.
He warned of the impending geopolitical consequences due to our unstoppable appetite for oil.
He correctly predicted the events of the 1990’s and the millenium with regard to world politics and national security as a warning about what would happen if we didn’t take drastic steps to broaden our portfolio of energy sources.
We didn’t listen, choosing instead to go the route of cheap imported petroleum never accounting for the true costs in terms of economic instability and permanent war.
Now, go back, pick up your fiddle Nero, and play us a fucking tune.
“Little man, go split hairs somewhere else.”
Huge man, don’t invent and write bullshit like “It was in fact JIMMY CARTER who provided the initial four hundred million in funding to Osama, and it was Reagan who, in a 1985 press conference, referred to Osama as a freedom fighter.”
“Osama’s relationship with radical Islamic organizations, including but not limited to The Mujihadeen, is established history.”
Lol. No shit?
“Reagan didn’t write a cashier’s check and make it out to UBL, he didn’t specifically name UBL at the CPAC speech.”
You said he did, while he meant the Afghan hero Abdul Haq.
“This has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that the Reagan administration had high level contacts with fanatical religious militant factions during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, we tried a gambit and now three decades later that gambit has BACKFIRED on us.”
As I said, “Apparently you think Hekmatyar and bin Laden are one person.”
“These are facts. Don’t like em? Tough shit.”
I don’t like you bulshitting others with the “facts” taken from your ass. Who knows, some people may even believe you.
“We have over three hundred years of history with Muslim militants.”
USA has no three hundred years of history.
“The goddam Marines were created in RESPONSE to problems with radical Islamics.”
False.
Btw, Mr. Idiot, this is whom Reagan referred to as a “freedom fighter” in this speech:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdul_Haq_(Afghan_leader)
Abdul Haq (born Humayoun Arsala; April 23, 1958 - October 26, 2001) was an Afghan Pashtun mujahideen commander who fought against the Soviets and Afghan commmunists during the Soviet-Afghan War. He was executed by the Taliban in October 2001 while trying to create a popular uprising in Afghanistan in the wake of the September 11th attacks.
It’s quite similar to boy scouts going camping in my country!
What I heard when I was younger, one of the reasons was that Soviet needed a sea port in the southern region into the Indian ocean for strategic reasons. It is a very long way to travel with ships all away around.
Bullshit ! There was only political reasons
In Afghanistan there are no ports
pwn!!!
USSR had several ports on the black sea such as ODESSA and SEVASTOPOL
If there were seaports on the Black Sea, how did they get then to open ocean? There are no canals separating the Black and Med Seas.
Try the Bosphorus!!!!!
How can there be ports in Afghanistan? It is a land locked country.
Note: The outcome of USA involvement will be the same as USSR.Collapse of country………..

—Perfect for the globalist elites (not all of them American)
to set up their precious world government.
Remind me again, what is US troops doing in Afghanistan?
For all the great historians on this site: THROUGHOUT HISTORY OF MANKIND, NO ONE WAS EVER ABLE TO WIN OR CONQUER AFGHANISTAN.
“THROUGHOUT HISTORY OF MANKIND, NO ONE WAS EVER ABLE TO WIN OR CONQUER AFGHANISTAN.”
Except for the Persians in 500 BC., Alexander the Great in 300 BC., Arabs in the 7th century, the Turkish Ghaznavids in the 10th century, Tsingis Khan and his mongols in 1219, Timur Lenk the century after that, and then Persia again the 18th century…
The British and the Russians were the only ones who tried and DIDN’T manage to conquer Afghanistan.
You’re wrong, USSR come to Afghanistan not to conquer. Army entered for help the communist leader to take control of entire country
Yeah, it’s not “conquering” when we’re doing it - it’s “liberating”!
Exactly!
They killed 20 000 Polish Army officers in Katyn by shots in heads, in 1940 and they were saying “we are liberating Polish brothers” …
USSR = The Third Reich of German
Stalin = Hitler
F*ck them all.
“You’re wrong, USSR come to Afghanistan not to conquer. Army entered for help the communist leader to take control of entire country”
By killing him?
Funny help
zaebatie fotki!!!
ne Chechnia a Afgan!!!
Those soldiers are too sexy to die
They didnt die. But they were there to kill
Why the most powerful contry in the world is unable to find Osama, one person ?
The war for control of that part of the world has nothing to do with patriotism, religion or human rights.
Afghanistan produces over 90% of the world’s opium supply.
You’re wrong, USSR come to Afghanistan not to conquer. Army entered for help the communist leader to take control of entire county.
Soviet soldiers after serving in Afganistan after returning home used to tell how they were hanging Afgans at the barrels of their tanks.
The idea was that, reportedly, soul of a Muslim will not enter Paradise if he has died through hanging. So demonstration of hanging or threat of doing so were used to intimidate locals and to squeeze out information.
1. I believe they were trying to take over the Mid-East, and Pakistan or Iran could’ve been next…
2. Isn’t Afghanistan a paradox in history? So many nations have conquered it, but none have been able to hold onto it. A fierce, determined people, coupled with the forbidding terrain as shown in the pics, has made a headache for all occupiers. Not to mention that the invaders couldn’t give it their full attention. The Soviets were frustrated by US-backed forces. The US, now, probably had the best chance at domination, but we came to forget about it and turn our attention to Iraq. We’re still doing good there, but the Taliban comes back every Spring, and the US will probably just leave, eventually. Who blessed that country in ancient times to make them so independent?

Rent the movie:
“The man who would be King”

It show the real “KAFFIRISTHAN”

All countries are invaded by the rats of Allah.
We will all live in our own Afghanisthan NIGHTMARE.
Look at South America, all fucked up by their muslim invaders.
Europe, Russia, the United States, all have the rot of Allah.

KILL THEM ALL!!!
I was in CCCR in 1987 and visited Uzbekistan. Went to a disco in the park in Tashkent and young guys on leave from the front were dancing and drinking. Russian men dance with each other. Interesting. I felt so sorry for them, having to go back to battle the wolves that my country was supporting.
Now my countrymates are there, and even worse, in Iraq, ignorantly playing fat cats games with their blood.
Hey, the Coviets were trying to bring civilization to a backwards country just like we think we are doing. Do we build schools for girls only to see them blown up? So did the Coviets, same thing.
Wacked out anti-russian jingoists, do you think the world is better off with Jihad instead of Cold War?
lolz, you guyz sure lost that war! NATO r0x, warsawa sux!
During King Daoud, Afghanisthan was still liveable,
if already muss-slime.
But the Russian KGB where everywhere,
destroying and undermining everything.
Russians have the Midas touch, they steal everything

That’s what happen when you toss grenades shaped

Great pictures !!
Thanks
Ware is always Sad…
As I recall it it, someone ran off with the national treasury, be that what it was, destabilizing the whole country. I could imagine it happening elsewhere, again? Probably not, if the UN can stop it or intervene. I wonder did they catch the guy and the find the money? At first the 9/11 was thought a money exchange grab, $110 missing in hard currency run by a Russian businessman. But hay, look there was all the money, the press reported. Many Australians were worried, it supplied real currency to the financial world when needed, mostly not needed there, everything is done in electrons and photons these days. Damn the photon torpedoes…full speed ahead.
haahah they lose the fucking USSR fucking Russia
Zeev, go fuck a JEW in his ass and let him suck your filthy cock.
Israel will die pretty soon and then all the Zionist all over the world..
Given the hard lesson learnt by the Russians, it is hard to believe that the US would choose to ‘liberate’Iraq after 911. No one should know better than the US that once they got into Iraq, they will experience the same situation the Russians did in Afghanistan.
Interesting also that the USSR lost its might and slowly disintegrated after their unsuccessful invasion in Afghanistan. Will US follow the same footstep??
Actually it was over oil the plan was to build a pipeline threw Afghanistan to Russia from the Middle East. It was also over a war on Drugs. Opuim was being exported from the Afghanistans into Russia causing a huge rise in drug use.
Russia and America share alot of the same issues that are going on today. The war on extreme Islam, the building of nations. It is to bad we can not see eye to eye and work together to build a collation.
But our leaders want power and the uneducated still spew hate from their mouths. War is war no matter who is fighting and it all leads to the same thing usless blood shed.
I am an American and agree most of our people beleive in the stupid idiologies of George W Bush which is very sad. But Russians fall for the same Propganda that Americans do by your own country. I have a Russian freind who left Russia for the U.S. because He was an engineer at Chernboyl and came down with skin cancer and The Russian government said tough crap deal with it. And once he was here he noticed how many lies the russian government had filled his head with.
Without a doubt, correct.
A certain one or two people here think I speak for my country. I love my country but don’t presume to speak for it.
Every country has its faults.
It’s only when a society refuses to address their faults that a nation collapses.

thx
[...] speaking of . . . here’s photos of Soviet soldiers during their attempt to tame the place. Makes me think of the ending to The Living Daylights, when [...]
I like the photos but(!) to be correct, you should mention that a lot of ethnic Romanians from Bessarabia were sent to die in Afghanistan for a war that wasn’t theirs.
For both who doesn’t know, the Romanian region Bessarabia (Eastern Moldova) alongside with Bucovina were taken by USSR after the Nazi-USSR treaty signed by Ribentropp and Molotov on August 23rd 1939 and never returned.
Since then, many of the the inhabitants were displaced to Siberia and the area was forcefully re-populated with Russians.
Ridiculous!
1. Statistically there were no ethnic Romanian casualties during the Soviet-Afghan War.
2. Bucovina and Bessarabia was occupied by Romanians after 1918. Bucovina earlier belonged to the Austrian Hungarian Empire and the Bessarabia to the Russian Empire. Romania was the only miserable country which could lose the war on the Antntante’s side and sign a peace-treaty with its neighbours. And after this they received the largest territories from those neighbours always defeated it (Bessarabia, Dobrudja, Transsilvania, Banat, Bucovina etc.). Those territories have never belonged to Romania before 1918, and even their population was very mixed and in some cases with no romanians there.
