The Anglo-American-Imperial Axis? Afghanistan? Try the United Nations Security Council they after all set up both UNAMA and ISAF at the request of and with the complete agreement of the Afghan Government - So much for "Imperialism".

April 1978 to October 2001 - Approximately 2.5 million Afghans lost their lives and the country was totally destroyed, none of which would have happened had the Communist PDPA exercised patience and constraint - that equates to an average of 292 people killed every day for 23.5 years.

October 2001 to October 2011 - Approximately 37,000 Afghans have lost their lives, the majority of those killed have been killed directly or indirectly by the Taleban (Source UN), the country is now largely peaceful and is being rebuilt with a massive influx of foreign investment. Due to the presence of the ANSF, ISAF and US-OEF troops charged with the protection of the general population that previous average death toll of 292 Afghans per day has dropped to 10 - a reduction of 96.6%.
