ohh, I guess those innately savage afghans would have been better off under nutjobs like hafizullah amin or najibullah who murdered secular professors, doctors, writers, etc. the only viable alternative to a soviet-puppet regime was a deobandi theocracy! thanks for murdering those talibs, phillip.
most of the aid was funneled through pakistan and went to gulbuddin hekmatyaar's hezb-e-islami, who was admittedly a nutcase but not really affiliated with deobandi islam.
probably an A-
those weren't "Taliban" members, idiot. the taliban didn't exist back then. none of the major mujahideen groups in the 80s subscribed to deobandi islam.
