We must demonstrate over and over again the nature and extent of Soviet crimes in Afghanistan. No element of Afghan society has been spared the effects of Soviet barbarism and ruthlessness. The Soviets use tanks. helicopters. rockets. bombs. and mines disguised as toys. They have employed chemical warfare on fighters and noncombatants alike. About onefifth of the Afghan population has been forced to flee from their homes and become refugees. forming the largest refugee group in the world. Tens of thousands of Afghans have been killed and entire villages destroyed. The Soviets and their Afghan puppets have attempted to seal off the country from the outside world.
