What Muslim group did the US give firearms to?
The Mujahadeen were pretty much anyone in Afghanistan who fought against the Soviet occupation. Many people assume they are the same as the Taliban - this is not true. The Taliban were formed after the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan, with the intent of overthrowing the mujahadeen warlords who had come into power after the Soviets left.
Where did the mujahadeen fight a Soviet invasion?
This is likely referring to AFGHANISTAN, where Soviet soldiers and Afghan Mujahedin fought from 1979 until 1989.
Did the US invaded Afghanistan in 1979?
No. The Soviet Union, or USSR, invaded Afghanistan in 1979. The US covertly supported the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan who were fighting against the Soviets. After ten years of fighting the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan.
Did Afghanistan request the help of the US or was the US interest to compete with or defeat the Russians involvement in Afghanistan?
The Afghanistan government was allied with the Soviet Union at the time. The US supported the Mujahadeen, which was the group opposing the Soviet activity in Afghanistan (as well as the Afghan government).
Why did people initially like the talibans?
If anyone liked the Taliban, it was probably because they stood with the Mujahadeen in opposition to the Soviet invasion. The Taliban was supplied with weapons by the US and took over Afghanistan by force of these arms as soon as the Soviets withdrew. They did not ask anyone if they were wanted, and they made no attempt to be liked.
