>>>>>>>>>Don’t talk about foolish policies until you know basic facts. The Taliban did not exist until 1991, 3 years after the Soviets left Afghanistan. The US did not ever fund or arm Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden took over Maktab al-Khidamat, which was an Arab organization funded by Gulf State Arabs like its former money man, OBL. The US funded native Afghans.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You can call them Taliban or not it won’t change.

They fought ‘Perchami’ and Russians not because of distinguished freedom loving but because they removed rags from womens’ faces and sent girls to colleges.
Nation, freedom, liberty weren’t behind resistance for 99% fighters.
If you don’t know what the different groups were, how can you possibly know what was in their hearts? We are talking about different ethnic groups and sects here: Pashtuns, Tajik, Hazara...
