What goes around, comes around...

The Russians invaded Afghanistan and Reagan helped the Taliban and Osama bin Laden fight back by giving them weapons. The Russians become mired in Afghanistan and left, defeated. Osama and the newly trained al-Qaeda proved that they could beat back a superpower and turned their angry eyes towards the west. Bush the first did not remove his bases from Saudi Arabia after the first Gulf War as promised, inflaming Islamic radicals. Bush the second attacks Afghanistan and before the country is really secured and functional, pulls off to attack Iraq. Now mired in two wars, unable to win either, Bush makes threatening noises towards Iran, claiming Iran is supplying weapons to the Iraqis and al-Qaeda. (Conveniently forgetting that Iran helped us fight in Afghanistan right after 9/11.)

But guess whose weapons are being used to attack Americans in Iraq? It's not Iran....

MAZAR-E-SHARIF - While United States officials accuse Iran of arming a resurgent Taliban, officials in this northern Afghan city say the weapons are actually part of vast caches left behind by the Soviet military that fought a nine-year war in Afghanistan before withdrawing in 1988.

The messes America makes will always come back to sink their pointy little teeth into our collective butts...
