“While the Commons series about the war in Afghanistan has merit, there are obvious biases that give the western ruling class the benefit of the doubt while misrepresenting the pre soviet history of Afghanistan. There’s also a basic misunderstanding of what a state is and what a national army does in relation to its own nation state and others. Insinuating that the Canadian army had any good intentions is quite ignorant of the reality of what an army’s job is, contrary to whatever the Canadian state likes to portray itself as “peacekeepers”, this is a farce.
I would suggest reading Engels (Origin of the Family, private property and the state) and Lenin’s (State & Revolution) works on the state.”
