It's the Afghanistan Taliban, brought to you, in part, by the makers
of manifest destiny, the good ol' U.S.
of A. So far in fiscal year 2001, the
U.S. Government has given Afghanistan $132,000,000.
I'm sure the money gets to people that need it. In fact, the Taliban
has just banned the Internet, so they'll never know what they're
missing!
And how has the U.S. helped create the Taliban in the first place?
$3 billion
to arm and train the young refugees during the Soviet occupation
in the 80s. The 90s saw the rise of the Taliban; the American-made
weapons proving their worth in overpowering all other post-war rebel
factions. It's Islam to the extreme, baby!
