    A dumbshit extremist religion funded and pushed by the Saudi’s broke their country.

    Look at how the country was in the 60s and tell me any decade since hasn’t been exponentially worse. That shit plunged them back into the dark ages.

      Funded, yes, but the CIA are the ones who got the ball rolling by financing fundamentalist madrasas in Pakistan where the ideology of the Taliban came to be.
