The Russians didn't really do nation-building either. They just got called in to deliver some imperial shitkicking when their idiot client government tried to appropriate all the farmland in a subsistence-farming country without paying anyone and got their subjects predictably angry at them. The idea that anyone was actually interested in 'civilising the savage Afghans' is racist imperial propaganda.

Ahem do you not remember that part of the movie where they had to kill the child because he had a gun? That's why you have to kill civilians. They might have guns.

Do not trust in hope- it will betray you! Only faith and hatred sustain.

The British puppet king was notable for routinely taking chunks out of his servants when they displeased him; when they sent an ambassador to meet him the wind blew over the tent where they were having lunch and he had a servant castrated on the spot. The EIC guy was convinced this guy would be welcomed back with open arms by his people.
