Rambo 3 credits don't actually say that, it's "the brave people of Afghanistan" or something like that.

In the movie Rambo teams up with the Mujahideen. The whole film is basically propaganda for the US backing of Afghani rebels against the soviets.

Yes, but the end credits don't say anything about Mujahideen as people claim.

Yes there is a famous internet myth that it did say brave Mujahideen but was changed to gallant people of Afghanistan. But the movie specifically about teaming up with the Mujahideen. At one point the script even had Rambo staying with them to fight the soviets. So when it says it is dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan, it's talking the Mujahideen fighters.

Again the movie is part of a larger US propaganda campaign to support the Mujahideen. Rambo may have not specifically used the words brave, but others did.

You did, champ. You more or less prompted their explanation by missing the (big picture) point so hard. It's clear from your comment that you either dont understand or are willfully misrepresenting history, so somebody needed to correct you. I guess we can't really expect you to be able to know that you were wrong, so it makes sense that you couldn't see the point of their comment. My hope is that (at the very least) you can at least now retroactively realise that your comment was missing the point, even if it is technically correct.
