acts of violence from a illegitimate government is terrorism folks. I don’t care about America or Isis. A bad guy fighting a bad guy does not male one bad guy good.
I remember when Rambo 3 was about Rambo teaming up with basically the Taliban.
This is unfortunately just a really good edit.
The original being “This film is dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan.” See, for example, this review from 1988
Those were mujahideen, there’s a difference
The Taliban formed in the '90s when you fell off with a vengeance
I’m sure there’s a pretty big overlap of members of the Afghanistan Mujahideen and the Taliban that followed it
Yes, the Taliban were armed and financed by USA.
Not exactly, the Taliban was never a part of the Mujahedin. They don’t show up until after the soviets leave and the US looses interest. They did however grow out Madrassas that were jointly sponsored by the USA and KSA.
And the film was shot in contested territory in Israel
Edit: There is a documentary about it: Under a Blue Sun
