Do these sound like the same fatuous reasons for invading Afghanistan that the USA gave?

At the time of the Soviet invasion & occupation in 1979, Pravda reported that "The aim is to prevent the establishment of... a terrorist regime and to protect the Afghan people from genocide", and also to provide "aid in stabilising the situation and the repulsion of possible external aggression". Is it any wonder the Afghans aren't buying any of the bullshite reasons NATO (ie, the USA) claim they are there?
