    My humanities professor visited Afghanistan in 2007, He was fortunate enough to interview members of the Taliban, he was welcomed and treated with respect in the small village he settled in for 3 days, he was vetted before he conducted his interview, he was not allowed to record/film anything, for obvious reasons, but he said it was by far one of the most educational experience he’s ever had about the Muslim world. He didn’t feel threatened at all but he was also very open minded about what they had to say and their beliefs.

      A lot about their ideology he didn’t really go into detail, he generally summarized his experience very neutrally, it was a big class and he didn’t want to risk offending anyone. It’s a sensitive topic bud, you’ll find hard to believe this, but he legit had 2 Muslim students drop the class for the fact he went to interview them, idk why, I don’t care why. He did say he learned a lot about the soviet intervention in the 70s and how all that rooted in place to what the taliban is now.

      @Ballah 666 I'm not claiming, or at least not trying to claim, that every person in the region has no desires beyond "living their life in peace" - what I'm saying, and what the original comment is saying, is that there most certainly are a fair few people in that region who desire just that: To no longer live their lives in a warzone where they're at constant risk of getting shot, bombed or otherwise murdered, be it by the US and its allies or by these radical, far-right Islamist groups that the US helped kickstart in order to thwart the USSR during the cold war.
      A fair few of them also carry a grudge. I'd argue that given how hard they got screwed over, that's quite reasonable too. I don't think its particularly productive, but I can definitely understand it.
      And I also suspect that for most of them, the desire to not get killed in a warzone again outweighs the grudge they've got. I sure as hell hope so at least. Otherwise this mess is only going to get worse still.
      And its already more than bad enough as is.

      And as for the questions I asked, you should answer all of them and you'll get what I mean, as for the one question you answered, I accept that and I agree, unfortunately that doesn't mean much when 95% of Muslims believe otherwise and would happily go chop chop, same criticism.

      I am from Afghanistan and this is simply untrue. the taliban had no interest in al qaeda, it defined itself as an Afghan/regional power not interested in foreign issues. Adding to that Pashtun women do not marry outside due to tribal allegiances.

    The Taleban are a nationalistic movement and does not care much for what happens outside the borders of Afghanistan. Ideologically speaking they are different too. The Taleban are hanafi and have Sufi tendencies much like the rest of the people of Afghanistan, although they are more strict in their understanding of the shariah. As for isis they are salafis and they have virtually no support amongst the people of Afghanistan.
    Also, Fata is a territory inside Pakistan, but whose people are tribal Afghans.

      When the name of the Prophet is mentioned and they don't say these simple words :"Sallallahu alaihi wasallam" Jibreels curse is on that man and I affirm it.

    There are differences of ideologies between ISIS and Taliban. These ideologies that makes majority of Muslim supports Taliban but not ISIS.
    ISIS kills anyone that is not professing Islam and those who do not support their causes. If you are a Muslim (meaning someone that professes Islam), but you do not support their cause, you can be ruled out by them as non-muslim, meaning that your blood is 'halal' to be spilled by them. This of course contradicted with the teaching of Quran and hadis of prophet Muhammad S.A.W.
    Isis took pieces of quranic recitation and hadis that seems to legalised their causes and brainwash the youth for radicalism while at the same time abandoning the rest of the quranic recitation that forbid forcing other people to accept Islam.
    Meanwhile, Taliban fights for the freedom of Afghanistan, but at the same time following Quran and hadis very strictly. You wont be killed just because you are a non-muslim. When ISIS rose to power, the controlled area of Taliban in Afghanistan were further reduced and obliterated because people started to have separate ideologies. Hence, they fought against each other.

      Daesh will never prosper in Afghanistan. Most of its members in Afghanistan are from Sialkot, Bajur in Pakistan, and other foreign militants. Their sort of thinking will never take root in Afghanistan, Afghans are very experienced in the Jhadi field. TB are in every single Mosque and Madrasa in Afghanistan. The reason why Russia hosted the TB is because they knew the US was supporting them and they made a Russo-TB deal to fight Daesh in Afghanistan. The Former President of Afghanistan called Daesh a "tool of the US". The US was bombing TB not Daesh.

      It's for this reason that we see the nation building efforts of the United States in Korea, Germany and Japan were successful, but a disastrous failure in Afghanistan.

    While most of what is said in this video is true it none the less mischaracterized a few things. ISIS and ISIL was simply a rebranding of AL Qaeda in Iraq or AQI. That organization was it self a rebranding as described in this video of a group that was in fact a rebranding of Jama'at-al-Tawhid-wal-jihad formed by Abu Musab-al Zarkawi in 1996-1999. Zarkawi fought in the last few battles against the Soviets in Afghanistan but had for the most part had arrived there after they were already leaving. He spent some time there as a reporter for a local news letter. Then he returned to Jordan and West Bank where he was from and founded the organization I just mentioned. He turned up in Afghanistan in 1999-2000 and with help from Bin Laden established his own training camps out near Herat in Western Afghanistan near Iran border. He spent alot of time back and forth between the two countries. After the US Invasion of Iraq Zarkawi moved his organization there and would eventually rebrand as AQI. Bin Laden and Zarkawi had a parting of the ways because Zarkawi was killing way to many innocent Muslims and not obeying Islam's rules for waging war. This is when AL Qaeda and that organization became enemies. Zarkawi was originally of Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood. Dr Abdullah Azzam Bin Ladens original mentor during the Soviet Jihad before Zawahiri and the Blind Sheikh also was from Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood. Both he and Zarkawi wished to wage a miltary campaign like the one fought against the Soviets back in Jordan and each country run by secular governments in the Middle East. Bin Laden felt such a campaign could never achieve success and was therefore a waist of time and resources unless they first drove the US and the West from the region first. To that end he preferred grand Terror attacks against the West on their home turf like 9/11. Bin Laden believed heavily in limiting the killing of fellow Muslims and by putting the war in the US he believed he could do so. After Zarkawi was killed by a Drone strike in 2006 AL Bagdadi took over and by 2013 began calling itself ISIS

Trump also wanted that traitor president gone bcuz he suspected he was a coward pro talibum fool, n he was right.. But he did nothing as it was close to election year n ppl actually liked that guy bcuz they'd elected him democratically n suspected nothing bad of him.. Also, Afghans wanted the invaders gone after so much time, war n death, they had a strong military that coulda wiped the floor with any terrorists invaders but the gov was so corrupt n abandoned the military.. Also Biden is completely at fault for refusing to help the Afghan military n provide airstrikes against the terrorists when they were easy targets to kill..

    A very simplified way that you might be able to explain the difference to a Westerner is to say ISIS and affiliate groups are international Islamists and the Taliban are Afghani national Islamists.
    ISIS wants to reestablish the historic Caliphate; a unified Islamic state run by a single Caliph as the religious and temporal head.
    The Taliban seek to 'regain' control of the Afghan government.
    Both groups organize in opposition to Western influence. ISIS believes the best way to so is with a unified Islamic world, whereas the Taliban subscribe to wider position that stable Islamic governments are a better way to safeguard Islam and oppose the West.
    As far as how 'extreme' they are, ISIS is typically more brutal in taking control of and governing an area though this may be due to how relatively young and adhoc the group was when it took land after the Iraq war. The Taliban is typically more moderate in its application of Sharia, though this may be a pragmatic consideration.
    Another thing to keep in mind is the frequent infusions of cash, arms, and support ISIS received from Western governments even while ostensibly those government were fighting them; especially from the US. While ISIS has relatively high support among Western Muslims, this connection to Western governments has lead to widespread distrust of ISIS from Middle Eastern Muslims.

      " more moderate in it's application of Shari'a" 🤡🤡 you really have no idea what you're talking about do you? Shari'ah isn't a scale from 0 to killing everything and everyone. That's just a caricature you have in your tiny brain . If that were the case there wouldn't have been so many historic functional states which applied Shari'a . It just means referring to Islam for all legal issues and punishments on any issue where Islam isn't silent .

      @@hmmm3210 Yes yes, every Muslim thinks their application of Sharia is the most accurate. But what you will see is that every Muslim civilization has applied Sharia differently. When someone says moderate Sharia they mean that enforcement and punishment is moderate, that where ever discretion and a light touch is allowed it is taken. Whereas strict or harsh Sharia will exact the fullest punishment all of the time.
      Your statement is ignorant even from a religious lens.

      Although what you said is true about the difference between taliban and ISIS but the last thing you said is just not true. The US didn't arm ISIS. The US armed the Syrian National Coalition ( Opposition Forces ) which was fighting against Assad. Although they were not the only ones who were fighting Assad such as the An-Nusra Front but The ISIS came right in 2013 when Opposition Forces were almost taking over Damascus. The ISIS was mostly made of former An-Nusra Front fighters and other neutral islamist groups ( and do not forget that most of their members were in prison and Assad freed them in order to divide the rebellion which was fighting against him ). Also what you said that the ,,ostensibly those government were fighting them'' also not true at all. There were tons of drone and airstrikes against ISIS. Not just the US but also Russia and other countries: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_against_the_Islamic_State#Russia-led_coalition

      @@emperornemesis1423 It is well known and not controversial that the US and Western governments funded and armed ISIS. The only thing controversial is to what degree and what form it took. It is well known that much of the arms and funding the US sent to opposition forces made its way into the hands of ISIS. It is well known that members of ISIS were often also members of other opposition forces. It is well known that members of opposition forces often switched sides.
      It is controversial that the US and Western countries intentionally armed and funded ISIS. It is controversial that the US trained ISIS members. The frequency of what is known and uncontroversial as well as abundant reporting on the ground at the time suggests that it was intentional. Western governments supporting forces attacking a mutual enemy is something that's a matter of course. Al-Qaeda is stark example of this.

    7:48 That's freaking crazy AF. First the US is fighting the Taliban, then ISIS-K comes along, and the USAF turns around and starts helping the Taliban. One has to wonder if this was what made the US government say, "wait a minute, why are we fighting against the Taliban again???" and then meet with them in Doha to discuss a complete realignment.
    Hey Mr. Talibans, please don't let these ISIS guys fly jet planes into our cities please and then all is forgiven and we are cool, oh BTW here have some free drone strikes on these IS-K guys and take all those humvees and M4's and other hardware, you might need them. PEACE ✌️ ☮️!

    This still shocks me. I thought they would work together, but then again they have different motivations. Now that the Taliban have American equipment they can fight more stronger (maybe).
