What are the beliefs of the Taliban?
The Taliban was a Fundamentalist Islamic Regime.
The Taliban is a specific political Islamist Party/Militant Organization. The Taliban has certain political aims: the control of Afghanistan and parts of Pakistan. The Taliban also were able to hold national control in Afghanistan and ruled it according to some of the most barbaric interpretations of Shari'a Law. This includes repression of minorities such as the Shiite Persians and Hazaras, the banning of all but Islamic banking, the use of physical mutilations and amputations as punishment, the banning of "blasphemy" towards Islam, the execution of homosexuals and apostates, and the destruction of non-Islamic cultural icons like the Bamyan Buddhas.
As a result of their national bent, the Taliban spread out through national channels such as police and justice departments. The Taliban, consequently, has very limited aims that came in direct contravention of American interests only in 2001 when the United States invaded Afghanistan. The Taliban, while supporting Al-Qaeda, were not (prior to 2001) interested in the latter's goal of attacking and Islamicizing the West. They are still opposed to exerting resources to achieve these goals, but do focus their efforts on removing the Northern Alliance government of Afghanistan and leading that country again.
Why are the Taliban and Al-Qaeda hiding in the tribal areas of Pakistan?
There are three main reasons why Al-Qaeda and the Taliban are hiding in Pakistan:
1) Local Support: In numerous areas where Al-Qaeda and the Taliban operate, they are seen as rightly-guided individuals. Their ideologies and views, while separate to the mainstream have legitimacy since they advocate religious views that many Pakistanis in the Waziristan region agree with. They also are fighting the Americans, which is something that gains them some support as well. No local leader has ever repudiated the Taliban or Al-Qaeda.
2) Protection by Pakistani Politics: Pakistan has number of internal concerns which "take precedence" over reclaiming territory from the militants. Its army, while powerful, is not equipped to maintain a long term guerrilla warfare against the Taliban. However, they have no interest in allowing foreign armies invade to solve the problem since that would be a violation of Pakistani sovereignty. In this way, without actually supporting them, the Pakistani government has allowed these Islamist Terrorist/Paramilitary organizations to remain in Waziristan.
3) Difficulty of the Terrain: The terrain in the Waziristan region is very mountainous and difficult to travel, this makes hiding and resisting much easier than it would be on an open plain.

Why do terrorists attack mosques?
The same thing happened in northern Ireland (which is ocuppied by Britain) during the 70's, 80's and 90's by the british to divide communities and criminalize the IRA who fought against them. They called the IRA terrorrists yet the british killed far more civilians than the IRA. The IRA NEVER target civilians, they only consider soldier's and the so called police as legitimite targets. The exact same happens in the middle east today. it is plan against Islam. to stop Muslims going to mosques (everybody loves life) plus to form a notorious image of Islam and Muslims.
OpinionThere are numerous Islamic sects. Violent conflict between Islamic sects occurs.The Ahmadi sect considers itself Muslim but isn't recognized as such by other members of the religion's mainstream sects. Pakistan's constitution doesn't consider Ahmadis to be Muslims, and adherents have experienced years of discrimination, some of it state-sponsored. Radicals from the dominant Sunni branch of Islam in Pakistan have targeted Ahmadis before.
But even in violence-racked Pakistan, where Taliban and allied militants frequently target minority religious groups, especially Shiite Muslims, the Ahmadis have been spared large-scale attacks, making Friday's assault notable for its sweep.
At an Ahmadi mosque in Lahore's Model Town neighborhood, police and witnesses said five to six gunmen, some of them wearing suicide vests, broke through the light security cordon surrounding the place of worship and opened fire.
OpinionIslamic sects has never been a problem big enough to cause this much bloodshed.ITS POLITICS!
