@lizstl13 yeah they left out the actual details of how the taliban were founded and their name, Talib, means student. Habibullah Jan, a US backed warlord kidnapped 2 women near the home of former mujahadeen fighter Mullah Omar. Omar gathered his students to march on the warlord's camp where they found the women had been killed. Enraged, they took up arms
After the US invasion drove out the Taliban, Habibullah Jan returned and claimed a seat in the US backed parliament with a private army
