Most historic accounts indicate they came about in the early 80's as part of the resistance to Soviet occupation!. US government documents show that we supported them militarily in the the Soviet-Afghan conflict through the late 80's!. The officially ruled Afghanistan from the mid-90's (1995 or 1996 i think) until about 2001 when NATO removed them from power!. And current reports do indicate they are still there fighting the US and NATO forces!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
