The Mujahedin forces that resisted the U.S.S.R during the Soviet Invasion were sponsored/advised by a covert branch of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). The withdrawal of Soviet troops served as a theological victory for the United States, who at the time was in a Cold War with the Soviets. It also served to reinforce the Afghan mystique, that no invader has succeeded in taking Afghanistan from the Afghans.
