Well, I know where you are leading this.
I'd put it at 4 parts afghan will to 1 part US hardware. The reason we had an easier time is because the people themselves were sick of Taliban rule. But yes, that did strain the USSR a bit more. Still, anything we did, infitessimal compared to China and their own internal corruption. Reagan deserves little credit.
It's nice how you let me point out how Reagan created the habitat that spawned the Taliban and later al Qaeda.
There you go for another one of my points against Reagan in my book.
