So far, you've said absolutely nothing that's contradicted anything i've said and your only source of information is you desperately searching google for information so you can formulate some sort of argument because at the end of the day, you have absolutely no clue what went on.
The only serious aid in terms of real western weapons and active overt involvement came from Ronald Reagan. Not Carter and the stingers themselves were the final blow to the Soviets. Not anything else.

The U.S. offered two packages of economic assistance and military sales to support Pakistan's role in the war against the Soviet troops in Afghanistan. The first six-year assistance package (1981?87) amounted to US$3.2 billion, equally divided between economic assistance and military sales. The U.S. also sold 40 F-16 aircraft to Pakistan during 1983?87 at a cost of $1.2 billion outside the assistance package.
