Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

You are making some assumptions that its pointed at something he doesn't want to shoot.

They are uncorrupted. Your opinion matters. You must like yourself my brother in christ. Think of it like this; one is just the new zero.

It was in Afghanistan with the Mujahideen. In 1988 they were the good guys, and they had Osama Bin Laden in their ranks.

[–] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Binladen was a bagman delivering Saudi money to the muj. He didn't fight. And the muj (mostly) weren't the same as later jihadis. More often, local warlords and their private armies, not primarily religious nutters.
