Learn something about history before making moronic statements.

The US created the Taliban with its ridiculous interventionist policies.
I'm sure that they would have been fine citizens of the USSR.

Yeah, last I checked the country of Afghanistan is virtually impossible to take over. If you think differently, go spend a few weeks there and explore the terrain. It is an impossible country to take over, which the idiots in our government are about to find out. Our intelligence agencies have said for decades that Afghanistan is a dead end for anyone that tries to occupy it.

Do us a favor. You do it. Enjoy it and stay there.
