Maybe this is a dumb question, but I’ve been thinking about it recently. With the Taliban taking back over Afghanistan, I’m trying to see things from a non-American perspective.

Is the Taliban actually a bad organization or do they have a warped image of being evil thanks to America? Are they more comparable to say, Hamas, rather than ISIS?

    Trained by the people who were trained by the CIA? I don't know, there's a lot of reporting out there that points to the CIA being directly involved in operations in Afghanistan back in the day. There are younger generations of guys who didn't have direct contact with the US for sure, but the wheels were set in motion by American hands.
