You been watching too much Hollywood propaganda, I suggest you talk about issues you are familiar with rather than regurgitate Western and Indian propaganda.
So Taliban outspent US/NATO in Afghanistan? I doubt it.
Money is only one factor of many.
You are comparing apples and oranges the two conflicts the Soviet-Afghan war and the American involvement in Afghanistan are like day and night, The Soviets intentions in 1979 was for a "friendly" regime on its former Southern Border, also China which was Pakistan's ally that time had long running conflict with the Soviets and in 1979 was when detente with US and China was complete when Deng Xiaoping finally assumed more power in the CCP. The Soviets wanted to leave rapidly but they got bogged down cause no 1 the PDPA their client was not trustworthy their own militia sided with the Muj caches of Soviet weapons went to the muj via the PDPA again you can buy a Afghan but not trust one thats why they lost the muj could have easily crushed lets get away from this thekadar mentality oh we broke the USSR because the holy muj again my opinions on the muj is mixed but the Soviets made the huge mistake in going into that sand pit s..thole and should have stayed out.The American dont want to leave stay cause they dont want the Russians,the Chinese or the Iranians to have footprint in the Eurasian region Pakistan is also not trusted by Washington as Pakistan has long sought to expand and gain allies in Eurasia as well why you think their paired up with the Indians, America is leaving not because they want to they are leaving because the "Afghans" they rented have been sold to the Iranians,to the Russians to the Chinese and Pakistanis I wont be suprised New Delhi is trying to curry up as well again Pakistanis and PDFERS need to be careful and not have rose tinted glasses of the Taliban tho I nominally support them for geo political reasons the Afghans can be rented and not be trusted @Old School
