Your challenge, if you choose to accept it, is to create a scenario where the Soviet Union beats Afghanistan in a war. And when I say beat, I mean well and truley smashes any opposition from any rebels gaining total control of the country and giving the government in Kabul complete theoretical control of their country. The Government in Kabul also needs to be completely loyal to the Soviets. Perhaps most difficult is this next part. The Americans need to look like they have hopelessly failed there allies, so much so that the war is an embarrassment to the American people and government. Also follow up from the timeline with some consequences of this great victory, for Afghanistan, the Soviets and the World. Your POD can be as early as 1955, and the Soviet Union must be Communist (not modern China Communist)

Good Luck!
