re: What is interesting to me is that in other Moslem countries the Taliban are heroes. In Afghanistan where the people actually lived under their rule, they do not seem to be so popular.

From what I've been reading over the past week, it seems very clear their allegiance goes to whomever is pointing the gun at their heads..... They swap sides and are accepted with open arms.... I think the phenomenom is called "survival".
