Mmm ... because back in the 80s we backed the rebels that forced Russia out of there in the first place ... then we left those rebels that we backed high n' dry to a basically foundationless, lawless government ruled by warlords and financed by locally grown drugs ... those would be the same rebels who we then promised help that we never gave ... and basically helped laid the groundwork for the retribution that later came to innocent U.S. citizens in the form of the 9/11 Trajedy... well, for starters I mean. :/
Stuff like that tends to get other countries pissed at the U.S. and gives us the reputation of "the ugly American". Like Chris Rock said (paraphrasing) "It's not that I agree with the shit ... but I understand."
