^ Pakistan may have given them the name "Taliban" but they were all there, all trained and funded by US.
not really...since they were 10 year old during the soviet war in the 1980's....and were studying in Islamabad....
only in 1992 were they send to Afghanistan....
what USA did help fund were the Haqqani, Hekmetyar, and Shah Masood Warlords who fought the Soviets
The Taliban were a Pakistani creation and then went completely psycho in 1997 with the arrival of Al Qaeda since Taliban worship Arabs and all the things they say are gospel to them
