"Ignored? We financed and armed the Taliban, professor. How old are
you? Did
that historical detail happen when you were in 8th grade and busy with
video
games? "

The US never financed and armed the Taliban. We did finance and arm
the mujahidin when they were battling the Soviets. Apparently you
don't understand the difference. The period I was referring too when
The US ignored what was going on in Afghanistan was after the Russians
left and the country descended into chaos. Of course, had the US tried
to intervene and establish a pro-democracy govt, then guys like you
would have been bitching about that as an example of American
imperialism.
