The Taliban are not bad. The Taliban was a bunch of self contained traditional muslim people leading a small nation that never heart nobody. They decided that heroin was anti islam and they burned down their poppie fields, so in 2001 they went down from 80k hectars roughly, down to 6k. At this point they were responsible for a massive percentage of the heroin trade, and mostly responsible for Europe's and Iran's heroin supply. Then 16 dudes that had fought in Kosovo against Nato, managed not only to hijack big ass planes, with minimal training on small 4 seater Cessna planes, but also to land them accuretly in the twin towers. To see how challenging this is, see footage of flights above New York and try to locate a specific building. Now do the same thing while travelling at 500km per hour. Regardless, these people had nothing to do with Afghanistan. They were Saudis and so was Agent Bin Laden, who was world's top wanted for 8 years, chased by Mossad, CIA, FBI, MI6 and a younger version of yourself that dreamed of getting their hands on Bin Laden. Agent Bin Laden who was found in his home in Pakistan, but you are not allowed to view the footage. You can however see Hillary's and OBama's reaction.
