The reporters who covered that brutal invasion are off in Iran or Iraq. in Beirut or Chad. in El Salvador or Grenada. Afghanistan has. in a real sense. become another forgotten tragedy. But brave men and women still fight and die there. civilian homes still are bombed there. and refugees still seek safety from the 4 years of Soviet tyranny. Other recent examples of infamy also seem to have faded from the popular imagination. Last September 1. 269 men. women. and children died when their civilian airliner was attacked and destroyed by Soviet fighters when it strayed into Soviet air space.
