People presented today.
The Effect of the Soviet Invasion.
In 1979 the USSR started wanting more control over Afghanistan and its people. They were trying to preserve their failing Communist Government. They wanted to further expand their control in Asia as well. 100,000 soldiers took part in the Invasion. Afghanistan got support from the Islamic world. The US supported the with money and weapons. Mujaheeds attacked quickly then disappeared into the mountains.
INVASION, A FAILURE. The rural people saw women's rights and land distribution as something foreign (AMEN)
Mujahid were muslim fighters. They also used guerilla warfare.
Reprecussions.The rural populartion was affected beause they fed and housed the mujaheeds. Refugee camps were made all over Afghanistan. The US sent more money and weapons to the Mujahidine.
The Strategic Defense was created by Reagan. It was about putting lasers in space. STAR WARS. It would be used to defend missiles shot at us.
