Boy, you sure avoided answering the question he asked. I wonder how come.
>>what did/does your brother think of the forceful removal of the Taleban?<< My brother, who taught architecture in Afghanistan in the 70's, was very sorry to learn that the CIA supported the Taliban on the theory that this was the best defense against communism.

OK, I think we gave support to everyone who was anti-Communist, including those who later formed the Taliban and those who were overthrown by the Taliban. What was the best defense against communism then?
