Very. I learn more in FR in a week than I learned in four years of college lol.
Past two weeks:
China fought Russia once.
Israel almost lost the 1973 war and there was a ton of politics behind it.
Russia took Afghanistan because their real goal was Saudi Arabia.
Learned about state flags now.
Got a slew of responses regarding guns.
what a great site..
Russia didn’t “take” Afghanistan any more than we “took” South Vietnam; the Afghan government asked them for help. That same government, like that of South Vietnam, survived for a few years after the Soviets left.
We still call it an “invasion”, but that was just American propaganda.
