most of the Afghanies hate the Taliban.
What support do you have for that proposition?
Still waiting for an answer to that one, Steve.
You must have missed my reply. Read _Kite Runner_. Plus there are many
other sources of information about how the Taliban treated the citizens
and how hated they were. Or you can just scroll through this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taliban

The rest should be obvious.

You are aware, of course, that "The Kite Runner" is a work of fiction?
Similarly, one could read "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" and come to the
conclusion that most Indians hate the Federal Government.

It's historical fiction, written by someone who was there.

Stephen

Ahh then that makes it all ok. the author would never overstate any
thing to sell a book.
like news paper and television reporters would never manipulate a
story to propagate there view point.
