@Captain1

Did you not see all those character assassinating videos about how “cruel” Taliban were, how “cruel” their laws were, how bad sharia is etc when they were condemning Taliban to hell in summer of 2001 and getting ready to invade to liberate Afghans?

Those articles were used to justify the war by certain parts of the media. Simple propaganda. NATOS’s main objective was to destroy the training grounds of Al-Qaeda and remove their base of operations. It is a matter of opinion whether they have succeeded or not. The original objective was not to defeat the taliban or change the countries legal system.
