Waziristan and Dera Ismail Khan in Pakistan. Several family members in the cabinet of Gen Ziaul Haq who worked with the Reagan administration with a ton of intel and support for the mujahadeen. Also family members in the Musharraf admin.
This will be fun. Let's see how deep your knowledge on the full history is (you have already been wrong a bunch of times)
Any been killed by Obamas drones? What is worse Obama killing them with drones or the Pakistani government not doing much about it in order to receive foreign bribe money?
This will be fun. Let's see how deep your love is for your fellow countrymen.

That's all very interesting information. The problem with liars on the internet is that they often provide their own rope for which me to hang them.
You claimed you have family members who worked for the Reagan administration, you posted a picture at the beginning and claimed the people there were "Taliban". That picture includes a woman. Why do you think a woman came with the "Taliban" or even the proto-"Taliban" (as you claim)? But let me ask you something more interesting, since you have insider information: what happened to that woman when the actual "Taliban" took over?
PS
DI Khan is the gateway to Waziristan. I don't know of anyone to describe his tribal affiliation this way. Why separate the two? Do you have family deeper in that tiny region?

The Taliban did not exist during the Reagan era. It was formed after the Soviets left that the Taliban was formed.
From this information, I believe they did.
Quote:
The Taliban movement traces its origin to the Pakistani-trained mujahideen in northern Pakistan, during the Soviet war in Afghanistan. When Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq became President of Pakistan he feared that the Soviets were planning to invade Balochistan, Pakistan so he Akhtar Abdur Rahman. In the meantime, the United States and Saudi Arabia joined the struggle against Communism by providing all the funds. Zia-ul-Haq has been labelled the "grandfather of global Islamic jihad". He aligned himself with Pakistan's Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam and later picked General Akhtar Abdur Rahman to lead the war against Communism inside Afghanistan. About 90,000 Afghans, including Mohammad Omar, were trained by Pakistan's ISI during the 1980s.
Well it was formed in the Madrassas in Pakistan by refugees from Afganistan yet during the 1980s they were not the main resistance group. This changed in 1994 when Pakistan especially supplied military goods and aid to the group in order to protect the roads in Afganistan. History of the Taliban
The Taliban are the conservatives of Afghanistan, essentially 3rd world equivalent of the Republicans/TeaPartiers.
Ronald Reagan was a big fan of the Taliban:
They have been a massive headache ever since.
Let's see: you have mentioned Prince Harry, the Taliban, Afghanistan, Republicans/Tea Partiers, and Reagan in your post? I think you left someone out. Hint: His initials are G.W.B.
Did you know:
Quote:
A year-long investigation by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT) has found that scores of known radical Islamists made hundreds of visits to the Obama White House, meeting with top administration officials.
Did you also know that Obama finances entertains and supports the President of Egypt, the former head of the Muslim Brotherhood. He left that position to become President. Did you also know that Obama's "friend" Morsi demanded that the US (Obama) release the Blind Sheikh and return him to Egypt. Do you know who the Blind Sheikh is?
On 10 March 2011, it was revealed that Prince Harry had passed his Apache flying test and he was awarded his Apache Flying Badge on 14 April 2011. There was speculation that he would return to Afghanistan once again, before the withdrawal in 2015. On 16 April 2011, it was announced that Prince Harry had been promoted to the Army rank of captain after having held the rank of lieutenant since 2008.
In June 2011, Clarence House announced that Prince Harry, on completion of his training conversion course to use Apache helicopters in the war arena, would be available for deployment, including in current operations in Afghanistan, in his role as an Apache helicopter pilot. The final decision will ultimately rest with the Ministry of Defence's senior commanders, including principally the Chief of the Defence Staff in consultation with the wishes of Harry, his father the Prince of Wales and the Queen.
In October, Prince Harry was transferred to a US military base in California to complete his helicopter gunship training. This final phase will include live-fire training as well as "environmental and judgment training" at naval and air force facilities in California and Arizona.
The majority of those completing the two-month Apache training are deployed to the front lines in Afghanistan. In the same month, it was reported that Prince Harry was said to be a natural pilot who was reportedly top of his class in the extensive training he had undertaken at the Naval Air Facility, El Centro, California.
On November 2011, Prince Harry returned to England from military training in the United States. Next, he went to Wattisham Flying Station in Suffolk, southeast England, to complete his training to fly Apache helicopters.
On 7 September 2012, Captain Wales as he is known in the military, arrived at Camp Bastion in southern Afghanistan as part of the 100-strong 662 Squadron, 3 Regiment, Army Air Corps,[48] to begin a four-month combat tour as a co-pilot and gunner for an Apache helicopter
Umm would have no problem with Princ harry providing NATO/ISAF troops with some close Air support since he is freaking taking out the Taliban insurgents shooting at our troops and he puts his life on the line to serve and he actually fights on the front line he has my Respect and if he is saving our troops lifes then what is the issue?

Correct, from your link:
Quote:
Following the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, the Taliban emerged as a resistance movement aiming to eject the Soviet troops from Afghanistan
Some people have differing opinions as to when the Taliban came into the picture, and I think we can say they were in it from 1979 to present.
