How did the Northern Alliance differ from the Taliban?
The Northern Alliance consisted primarily of Uzbek and Tajik tribesman from Northern Afghanistan (areas bordering Uzbekistan and Tajikistan). The Taliban, in contrast, are primarily Pashtun tribesman from central and southern Afghanistan. It is important to remember that in this region of the world TRIBAL identity is far more important than National identity. This difference from Western ideas of National identity puts a different perspective on conflicts in this region (as well as similar conflicts in Africa and Asia). When examined from a tribal perspective the conflict in Afghanistan becomes less about the Taliban vs. the nation of Afghanistan, and more about a Pashtun civil war.

Why do the taliban kill Americans?
The Taliban only invaded because Al Qaeda was based in Afghanistan. In fact, the Taliban never wanted war with the U.S., but Al Qaeda did, so they provoked us into invading with 9/11. So when we invaded, the Taliban had no choice but to fight us. In order to get the upper hand, we allied with the Northern Alliance (they're the current govt. in Afghanistan. Then the Taliban made themselves disappear for a few years (don't ask me how) and now they fight so they can gain control of Afghanistan.
