If history is anything to go by, this will probably set off a wave of terrorist attacks from the disillusioned rabid dogs Europe and the US armed, trained, and whipped up into a frenzy in Azov, Right Sector, Bratstvo, Kraken, Third Assault...

Your parents or grandparents cheered on the Mujahideen as well, once.

The betrayal narrative is very much gaining ground in Ukraine right now. Also worth noting how huge amounts of weapons have gone to the black market. One investigation found that only 30-40% of the supplies coming across the border reached its final destination. The nazis in Ukraine have established lots of connections with far right cells across Europe, and that's likely where a lot of these weapons ended up now.

considering the amount of ukrainian refugees in Europe... oh boy they're in trouble

I don't know. Did the Mujahideen seemingly fought to the last man? Most of the Ukrainian refugees here are women.

Most of the refugees are women because Ukraine restricted travel of men of military age. Al Qaeda wasn't staging attacks with refugees, they mobilized the recruits which grew and grew during the war, and then they put their CIA training to practice with arms they got from the west.

Y'all better hope and pray that Russia is allowed to denazify Ukraine, otherwise you're probably gonna have to see the consequences of your government's warmongering and your populace's xenophobic complacency.
