Hmmm... The Soviet Union collapsed 2.5 years after the war in Afghanistan ended. The Russian economic crisis that followed bottomed in 1998 with an 80% fall of the ruble in 1 day. We may have ways to go, DOW/GOLD ratio should hit a secular bottom at around 1. We ARE in a very severe banking crisis right now, and it will likely deepen and lead to an economic crisis. Gold says so -ng- I hope there will be no new war, cause we really can't afford it. "The initial Soviet deployment of the 40th Army in Afghanistan began on December 25, 1979. The final troop withdrawal began on May 15, 1988, and ended on February 15, 1989. Due to the high cost and ultimate futility of this conflict, the war in Afghanistan has often been referred to as the Soviet equivalent of the United States' Vietnam War. The war had a profound impact in the Soviet Union, and has been cited as one of the key factors in the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.[6]" en.wikipedia.org
