Soviet era was better

[Exeggutor]

Atleast these Central Asians stayed quiet and embraced Soviet culture. Independence from USSR only made them more Islamicized. They were better off under Soviet rule.

Someone living 1000 miles away is bothered about Palestine, just because they are Muslim. They are Muslim 1st, Turk 2nd. That shows being educated doesn't change mindset. Without Russian invasion, they would have been at par with Afghans.
