There was friction with neighboring Pakistan, which is a nuclear power. There are supporters of the Taliban throughout the region and many took up arms to fight the US forces and their tribal coalition. Eventually these tribal groups formed a new government. Al Qaeda was essentially stripped of their base of power. Although Osama bin Laden was pursued into the border mountains, he escaped to Pakistan where he was killed 10 years later in 2011.
