One Decision=Bad Consequences Part 1

Back in the late 70's, a guy called Charlie Wilson was a wheeling dealing senator in the U.S. Imagine this world. Nixon's gone, Ronnie Regean's in. The Russians are still a direct threat, John Travolta's strutting down a boulevarde in tight, testicle separating jeans to a catchy Bee Gees song. The Russians were in Afghanistan and were kicking ass. Charlie Wilson almost singlehandley convinced the US congress to supply weapons and missiles to the embattled people. These people the Afghan mujahideen after many years of war kicked the Ruskies out of their country. Now, after the Russians left, the country was still ravaged with civil war because of the weapons left over from the US's "help". Amidst all of this one ambitious leader took charge of the country with guerilla warfare and evil tactics. After many years, many killings, and many many news stories, the world fears him now, gaining him international status as a cold hearted killer. Like a bearded Darth Vader. I think we all know who Im talking about. All because of Charlie Wilson. He had good intentions though. He's also dead but hey a mistake is a mistake. Oh well.
