there's a few Taliban splinter groups in there
They are indeed terrorist groups under the current definition:
'the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.'
They wouldn't be labeled a terrorist group if they only opposed democracy though.
Does what
Source? The invasions were targeting terrorist groups, not civilians if I recall correctly.
'the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.'
Many civilians were killed in US drone strikes and political instability caused by US funding of counter soviet organizations later labeled as terrorist
And in the end USA lost to a bunch of cave dwelling illiterate farmers
The US government did not purposely instill fear in the civilian population, they did the opposite on many occasions. Public opinion-wise, we were actually a highly favored country to many Afghan citizens according to this 05-06 poll: https://web.archive.org/web/20070118054125/http://www.globescan.com/news_archives/bbc06-3/index.html
Yes, I do not deny the accidental, and sometimes purposeful war crimes, but as a whole, the US did not purposefully set out to harm Afghan citizens to establish a political agenda.
Elab more on this?
The government they established was extremely corrupt, local war lords abused power same as the Taliban would d
There’s always a political agenda look what the British did to India. There are breeding parties now for white man to cuck Indian men so they can raise a light skin baby this is all because Great Britain ram BWC game in India for so long, same with the Philippines Vietnam Korea Beijing even Mexico and Japan
Taking down a Hussein led to ISIS trying to take control and Shia militant forces kicking them out
American funding of counter Soviet forces led to Taliban creation
Bin laden was the son of a Saudi Oil Sheik, Saudis have been caught countless times funding terrorist organizations why do you think the Taliban fly their flag now, and America continues to do business with Saudis while labeling countries like Iran and Iraq as terrorists for fighting off ISIS and trying to create an independent government
Are you referring to TISA or the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan? Do you have proof?
In this context, at first, there was no clear one but the original goal was the extradition of Osama, Taliban denied the extradition, the goal that followed was indeed a democratic political agenda that was not achieved by harming civilians, so, by that purpose, the coalition was not a terrorist one.
That is true.
Yes, the US supported the Sunni mujahideen, how did that lead to the creation of the Taliban though?
His father founded the Saudi Bin Ladin Group, how do you know of his funding?
What Saudis exactly?
