Well, 40th Army did much better in Afghanistan then all king's men do in Iraq.
We had 3 times less troops in Afghanistan then US has in Iraq, and Afghanistan is two times bigger and has population two times more then Iraq has. And it has mountains instead of desert.
I wonder how the US was able to be successful in Afghanistan, while you guys got your arse handed to you? I'm pretty sure we have less troops than you did.
We have lost just over 2000 people in Iraq since we invaded, so it's not like we are getting are arses handed to us like you guys did in Afghanistan. How many did you lose again?
I thought that military experts said that the USSR could take over Europe and the Middle east in a few weeks? I guess Afghanistan is stronger than Europe and the Middle East combined.......how else could you have lost?
You guys screwed up almost everything you touched.
