The Soviet war in Afghanistan (also known as the Soviet-Afghan War or the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan) was a nine-year conflict involving Soviet Union forces supporting the Marxist People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) government against the mujahideen resistance. The latter group found support from a variety of sources including the United States, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and other Muslim nations in the context of the Cold War. This conflict was concurrent to the 1979 Iranian Revolution and the Iran–Iraq War.
Initially Soviet deployment of the 40th Army in Afghanistan began on August 7, 1978. The final troop withdrawal began on May 15, 1988, and ended on February 15, 1989. Due to the interminable nature of the war, the conflict in Afghanistan has often been referred to as the Soviet equivalent of the United States' Vietnam War.

Russia warns of Afghan Parallels

This sure was an interesting moment in history.

    It clearly says the bear fell off a mountain. It didn't survive the fall!

    In all seriousness, though, I sometimes fear we did not learn the lesson the Soviets paid so dearly for.

    Yes, but instead, we're dropping cluster munitions that have a fairly poor rate of combustion and little kids mistake the brightly-colored bomblets for food packets or toys and shit. D:

    On the other hand, if you grew up in Afghanistan, you'd think you'd have the good sense not to pick something random off the ground because it has a 90% chance of being chock full of anti-personnel explosives.

    White phosphorous is freaking scary. Especially after reading Bravo Two Zero.

    But its not like cluster bombs where it can stay unexploded in one spot for a decade before taking off some poor schmuck's leg at an inopportune moment.
