There was NO Taliban ~ we sided with the Mujahadeen. When we went back in after 9/11 we allied ourselves with the former Mujahadeen called The Northern Alliance.

Yes, there was a “Taliban” during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.
That area of the world has always been tribal, it is very difficult to form lasting groups or bonds with all of the tribes, simultaneously.
However, there is absolutely no doubt that many who received U.S. Aid, against the Soviets, later turned against the United States.
