Afghanistan: Where western powers are currently embroiled in a battle against terrorism. Flash back forty years and the Soviets had just invaded and were committing atrocities against these simple folks while the world impotently watched – until a little-know, little-respected US congressman was coerced into visiting a refuge camp.
The result was a covert operation to support the Afghans which resulted in them chasing the Red Army from their country.
Unfortunately, today's problems are the result of the “****ed-up end game” but the portrayal of the events centers on the roguish congressman and an equally outlandish CIA agent with unusually hilarious dialogue.
Well worth viewing!
