Re: Taliban are Kharijites?
^Thats why the comaprison does not hold, Taliban are not pious nor comitted to an ideology, there way of work is typical mafia style. They extort locals, hold innocent for ransom regardless of ideology of their captors. They will do anything to get money and control. The murders and ransom of foreign nationals like Polish engineer. Khawarij did not do such acts. They did not bother people who were non-muslims or who were not part of the conflict. From whatever i read in media Taliban are not pious by any means, some don't even pray, others order locals to give their girls for marriage to Talibs. Many criminals have joined ranks of Talibs.
