If Afghanistan caused the fall of the USSR why is it that the USSR's cum Russia's allies controlled Kabul until the mid 90s? and still held on until we turned on the Taliban? A creation of our ally Pakistan.
The USSR would have fallen regardless of Afghanistan.

So the Taliban came into being in the mid 90's and the Afghan communists were in power up to that time?
