Am I the only one that's had enough of the blanket Afghanistan coverage?

*The Taliban, or "students" in the Pashto language, emerged in the early 1990s in northern Pakistan* following the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan. It is believed that the predominantly Pashtun movement first appeared in religious seminaries - mostly paid for by money from Saudi Arabia - which preached a hardline form of Sunni Islam.
The promise made by the Taliban - in Pashtun areas straddling Pakistan and Afghanistan - was to restore peace and security and enforce their own austere version of Sharia, or Islamic law, once in power.
Makes you proud to be British! Cowardly traitors!

Thats not true. At all. Look deeper into this.
The Mujahideen name itself refers to "Islamic Fighters/Soldiers of Allah/Those Engaged in military Jihad". The Afghan mujahideen were made up of fighters from around the world, including many from Arab countries during the soviet war, many from Pakistan, some from India etc.
Once the war ended most of these Mujahideen went back home. Sone of the Afghan mujahideen then fought a civil war for power. When the taliban first emerged in 1994 in Kandahar, under Mullah Omar, from AFGHAN madrassas, a number of Afghan Mujahideen units joined forces with them. Then a lot of Pakistani Taliban joined them. By 1996 they swept to power through popular support from the Afghan masses. The rest is history.
He's going to have to face justice before he shuffles off this mortal coil.If there was ever a time for Trump to take his rightful place it is now.
The irony
The big cheese in the taliban that
All will have to deal with is
Khalil Haqqani
black listed by the UN and with a 5 million bounty on his head
his Hawqani network were responsible for some of the most brutal terrorist acts
suicide bombings and horrific attacks on Shia Muslim communities
bombing of the Indian embassy
I doubt it - he isnt really part of the Taliban, more a security subcontractor. Their version of Blackwater.The irony

Imagine both being shouted. The first brings an image of a racist arsehole about to beat someone up. I've never head the second being shouted at someone, but the best I can imagine is an elderly person explaining what sort of rug they want.If Pakistan gets shortened it's considered racist.
