The invasion of Afghanistan was a landmark shift in Soviet military tactics. Departing from half a century of slow, plodding, "smother the enemy with raw power" tactics, the Soviet military leadership adopted the lightning strike. Overnight, the Soviets had captured the Kabul airfield and had surrounded the capital city with tanks.4
Tanks? In an overnight invasion? How did 30-ton Soviet tanks roll from the Soviet border to the interior city of Kabul in one day? What about the rugged Afghan terrain?
The answer is simple: there are two highways from the Soviet Union to Kabul, including one which is 647 miles long. Their bridges can support tanks. Do you think that Afghan peasants built these roads for yak-drawn carts? Do you think that Afghan peasants built these roads at all? No, you built them.
In 1966, reports on this huge construction project began to appear in obscure U.S. magainzes. The project was completed the following year. It was part of Lyndon Johnson's Great Society. Soviet and U.S.' engineers worked side by side, spending U.S. foreign aid money and Soviet money, to get the highways built. One strip of road, 67 miles long, north through the Salang Pass to the U.S.S.R., cost $42 million, or $643,000 per mile. John W. Millers, the leader of the United National survey team in Afghanistan, commented at the time that it was the most expensive bit of road he had ever seen. The Soviets trained and used 8,000 Afghans to build it.5
If there were any justice in this world of international foreign aid, the Soviet tanks should have rolled by signs that read: "U.S. Highway Tax Dollars at Work."

http://www.reformed-theology.org/html/books/best_enemy/foreword.htmAgain thank you for answering me kindly honestly and in a way I can get the answer I wanted, it's very gracious from you. I hope to be able to have interesting question to me to be able to ask, but apart when the west (aka the mob parasite) will definitively be eradicated from the Earth and Universe I don't have any more. Wish you a pleasant what ever.
best of all.
and about the "they said" remember that between the wolf howling and the whirle of the sound of the wind, all truth are said, so what "they said" is long gone, and forward in the sync of the transition to stay (how brutual unfriendly or irrpespectufl of the past moment, it isn't the moment, we are, they aren't.).
