Makedonia is another. Looking the other way on Cyprus? The slaughter of the Kurds in E. Turkey? Operation Storm. As a matter of fact, during the Bangledeshi war of independence, while US allie Pakistan was slaughtering millions and the Soviet allie India was moving to intervene, Nixon moved the 6th Fleet over to threaten India....to let the Pakistanies slaughter away. Interesting thing, history. Oh, well, there's the Indian Tribes, Mexico, 1812 in Canada, attacking the elected Confederacy and the Spanish American war to name a few. The "Soviet Empire" is on the ash-heap of history. Interesting thing history.

Ignore Stavka2 -- he is the moron who kept predicting on this site how Afghanistan was going to turn into a hellhole for the U.S. Practically everytime he posted during the leadup to October of 2001, he bragged about how the Slavic Russians were much better fighters than the Americans and how if the Slavic Russians couldn't beat the Afghanis then the silly Americans wouldn't be able to do it either.

Yes it is, and good ridence...does this excuse the US actions though? Never have I once defended the Soviets, and if you knew anything, you'd know not to obsficate the statements that I made with an off shot degression.
