Afghanistan

A country like no other. It has many wildly diverse ethic groups often separated by the enormous mountains and a fascinating culture. Afghans are true warriors and has fought off the strongest empires throughout history from the Mongols to the British to the Soviets. Despite hardly ever loosing to a foreign power, Afghanistan hasn't exactly won either and the nation seems to always find its self in conflict with things such as religion, ideology, tribal ethnic tentions and outside influences. Afghanistan is a geographically beautiful nation with mountains and medows galore, but like the ocean it is beautiful but very dangerous.
Afghanistan would be a great place to visit but one most be extremely careful if they ever go.

Afghanistan

The country the United States was supposed to invade instead of Iraq.
Why in the hell did we wage war on Iraq, when it was Al Qaeda (Afghanistan) that attacked us on 9/11?

Afghanistan

Afghanistan is a landlocked country located in Central Asia.
Because of the Afghan's inability to curb their lust for sex with underage boys
and their need to beat their women mercilessly without consequence,
they are known as the dirty balloon knot tied by the sad clown of despair of Central Asia.
So Roy, you just got back from Afghanistan.......
What did you think of the place?

Kabul looked like a dirty balloon knot tied by the sad clown of despair.

afghanistan

A colonial algomation of Pashto-Persian, Turkic, and Mongol ethnic groups into one great buffer state durring the "Great Game" for influence between Britain (British India) and Imperial Russia durring the nineteenth century. Afghans are warriors if nothing else, they were the only actual resistance to the Mongol hordes, out-lasting Persian armies from the west and scaring off the British and Russians (later demolishing the Soviets).

Before the Soviet invasion, Afghanistan was a stop-over on the great Asian back-packing trails, from Istanbul to Katmandhu or Bangkok. It was known for fascinating music, awsome food, and even better hashish. How things change.

After the Soviet invasion, the great powers used Afghanistan as a much-larger version of Lebanon: to fight an international war using third party proxies. The Mujahhadddin were the fighting for America with Chinese-supplied weapons and based out of Pakistan, while the Soviets rained down hell from their jets flying out of Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. Every major power armed someone basically.

Today, Afghanistan is at the center of a corporate power-play to set up for a new century of Central Asian gas from the Caspian basin, evident in the selection of a former Unical employee (Mohammed Karzai) as "President". Taliban elements remain in the mountains, but Bin Laden's long gone.

Also a song by Farhad Darya.
Afghanistan's such a cool place, too bad the country fell to hell.
