"The Afghans were also impressed by the fact that initially the Taliban did not demand power for themselves. Instead they insisted that they were restoring law and order, only to hand over power to a government which was made up of good "Muslims" However, between 1994 and the capture of Kabul in 1996, the Taliban's decision-making process was to change and become
highly centralized, secretive, dictatorial and inaccessible."
Excerpt from Taliban , Militant Islam, Oil and Fundamentalism in

Hold on to your seats folks! Look forward to the next installment of the story : Bush, America's Wannabe Dictator and Ashcroft, The Head of America's Gestapo Justice Department.
