National Geographic is a right-wing publication. I would not trust their
representation of the Soviets in Afghanistan.<br>

The Soviet war was brutal, but I'm not unsympathetic to the position.<br>

I remember reading a National Geographic article about this war as a kid
and it really put horror in perspective. The images were chilling: Russian
soldiers unwilling to leave personnel carriers, that sort of thing. <br>
<br>
I'm anxious to read Christian Parenti's next book already. Anyone on here
have insight as to when that might be published?<br>
