Rubbish

While it is clear that the Soviet Union did support Che, this had nothing to do with the US support of the Afghan resistance.

I am not going to go into detail, but instead I'm going to stop this before I get any angrier and write things which I later would regret having written.

All that I will say is that given your understanding of events, your support for Israel's continued expansion is understandable - or it may be that your understanding of events is formed by your support for Israel's continued expansion.

In either case, you are making several mistakes in the facts.
