Why can't a soldier in Afghanistan kill the taliban?

Because the Taliban are funded by the US and British. All the Taliban in Afghanistan are pakistanies. They are there to destroy Afghanistan not to bring peace. Everything that you see on tv about the Taliban are fake. There is no such thing as the Taliban, they are all pakistanies killing innocent Pashtun people. I am not even an afghan but I know what the truth is regarding Afghanistan.

Who are the taliban people from Pakistan?

The Taliban are not a 'people' in the meaning of ethnic group like e.g. the Pashtun. "Taliban" means "students" (of the Quran) and is the plural of the word 'talib', student. Taliban are fundamentalist Muslims who may come from any ethnic group in Pakistan and Afghanistan - or even from outside that area - and who decide to join that organization and pledge allegiance to its leaders.


Why does the Taliban hate women?

You can't claim that Taliban hate women. It is the practice and tradition in Afghanistan for woman not to work and not to go for high level education. These local traditions were the same in many countries, even in Europe, some centuries ago. The Afghan people should be allowed enough time to go through the natural cycle of development rather than causing country long suffering of extensive wars.

How is the afghan war effecting the people?

if you are referring to the afghan population, Afghanistan is a largely undeveloped, poor country consisting mostly of farmers. most people don't want anything to do with the war, they just want to get on with thier lives. however the taliban main source of income is opium , Afghanistan is by far the largest producer in the world. (opium is use in the production of many procucts including narcotics) the taliban doesn't want to lose it's trade so forces the local population to fight against the coalition forces. and demand a large portion of their income, they are against the education of young girls.. and the taliban is against the western world and this is a big risk for tourists (afghanistan was a very popular destenastion for tourists) this makes it very difficult for the afghan economy to develop. also. the afghan war is reinstalling a proper government and security forces in the country what helps to guard safety.


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.


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.

Who helped free Afghanistan?

From the Soviet Union, it was the United States and Pakistan through the good (or not so good offices of the Taliban) aid of such people as Osama Bin Laden who were not concerned with the welfare of the people of Afghanistan as they were with their own evil and malignant agenda. The US got what it paid for and the hidden costs were beyond their imagination, The Soviet may have killed a million Afghan civilians during their incursion, but the Taliban sent five times as many of their best and brightest into exile. Perhaps 5% will someday return to their Homeland.To repair the damage done to Afghanistan by the Soviets and the Taliban will require decades if not centuries and billions of dollars in investment. There is an education gap of almost 20 years that must be replaced. The poor stayed behind because they could not afford the Exodus. The uneducated stayed behind because they had no prospects for employment elsewhere,
