What side did US support in Afghanistan?
At the start of the war, the U.S. supported the Northern Alliance, who were a group of rebels opposed to the Taliban government. Once the Taliban were overthrown, the Northern Alliance became Afghanistan's new government and so now the U.S. is backing it against Taliban rebels trying to take over again.
Is the Taliban a communist group?
No. The Taliban is a Fundamentalist Islamist Group. They actually fought against the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan in the 1980s and the puppet Communist Government of Afghanistan. In terms of politics, they are much close to European fascists of the middle of the 20th century without the corporatist aspect of the fascists' policies.
Are the Al-Qaeda and the Taliban working together?
Maybe yes and maybe no. Al-Qaeda started military resistance to the Russian occupation to Afghanistan (by support of US and other Middle Eastern countries). Taliban is fighting against US and other allies occupation of Afghanistan. In this sense, it could be cooperation between them.

What caused the US to go to war with Afghanistan?
This was triggered following the terrorist attacks against the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon on 11th September 2001. The government of George W. Bush claimed that it had firm evidence that the then Taliban government of Afghanistan had actively supported the terrorists, with funding, training and logistics support, and was turning their country into a haven for the training, instruction and equipping of Islamic terrorists. A military offensive was begun later the same year to remove the Taliban from power, allegedly to neutralise the terrorist threat that it posed to America. Whilst there was indeed some truth in the claim that the Taliban regime was engaged in supporting terrorism, it was not doing so to anything like the degree that the Bush administration alleged, and was not able to afford to fund large terror campaigns in the way Bush claimed. Many people thus felt that the assault on Aghanistan was mainly a knee-jerk revenge attack against a fundamentalist Islamic country, in revenge for the attacks on New York.The USA went to war with Afghanistan not because we hate Afghanistan. We actually went to war with the Taliban that was (and still is) inside of Afghanistan. Taliban is a political party; USA wants to stop them now before they could possibly become the rulers and completely ruin Afghanistan. The USA is in Afghanistan so we can stabilize Afghanistan.
