lol - that was a laugh - back in the good old days when the cia supported bin laden - that was when the Taliban were the good guys -( ok they were called the mujahedeen back then) - they were the good guys because they were fighting the Russians.
ronald Reagan even dedicated a space launch to these freedom fighters
....Just as the Columbia, we think, represents man's finest aspirations in the field of science and technology, so too does the struggle of the Afghan people represent man's highest aspirations for freedom. I am dedicating, on behalf of the American people, the March 22nd launch of the Columbia to the people of Afghanistan.
ahhh the struggle of the afghan people - well with plenty of american help over about the last 20 years, the afghan people are still struggling - as are the iraqi and syrian peoples
