If you look back at the history of the region, you're maybe not too far off. Constantly, the Afghani people have been fighting off foreign invaders.
It started with Alexander the Great, and then the Greeks tried, Arab Caliphates, Genghis Kahn, the British, the Soviets, and America.
Hell, if you've ever seen Rambo III (my favorite one) it's all about the Afghan people. They even go so far as to dedicate the movie "to the gallant people of Afghanistan" who would, soon after, become enemies of the US during another invasion.
I think there's a hell of a lot more to the story than we're told.
