    Yeah that’s been pointed out. That’s why I crossed that bit out. I was trying to say that, after the US stopped funding the Mujahideen, their access to modern weaponry would have stopped, which wouldn’t make them comparable to modern “military aid”. But then I realized everyone was just assuming he was talking about the Soviet-Afghan War in the first place, so it wasn’t relevant.
