some unfortunate "US and Soviets both bad" in this video (and I'd also disagree with the labeling of Cubans in Angola as mercs, a proxy war does not preclude the presence of actually ideologically-committed volunteers), but still pretty neat

Cubans? Mercs?

Everyone knows that they were there to help Angola from invasion from South Africa in full uniform, not as paid thugs!

But no one bats an eye when actual mercenaries from Britain and South Africa run around sowing shit, shooting civvies, political assassinations and other horrible crimes.
