Yeah I'm sorry i didn't read this first, but this is exactly right. The Taliban didn't even have a credible existance when they started. Even the Afghans, who might be one of the more impovershed people on earth, still knew these guys were a bulb short of a candelabra.

If we had made Isreal on the border of North/South Dakota, only the Protestants would care.
