Edited on Sun Jan-02-05 12:14 PM by Gloria
via the BBC...Heard it today via shortwave...it lasts about 20 minutes.
And things sound a lot like what's going on in IRAQ today....

Assignment

In this edition the BBC marks the 25th anniversary of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

Pam O’Toole looks back at the bloody and destructive confrontation that ensued.

She also shows how this turning point in the history of the Cold War also led to the rise of Osama bin Laden and the international Islamic jihad.
