I agree. I don't think the Taliban even came into existence until the early to mid 90's. Reagan was long gone from the White House and in full Alzehmeirs by then.

Carter, Reagan, and Bush #1 supplied arms and aid to the mujahideen, but they weren't our enemy and we didn't pull out of their country after a war leaving billions of arms behind.

Didn't the Taliban also fight against and replace the mujahideen so arming the mujahideen would be almost the opposite of arming the Taliban?

I would guess that more of them became the Northern Alliance then Talban.
Baldy is correct, Reagan did not arm the Taliban.

That's correct, my mistake. Those mujahedeens then went to form the Taliban. That's the relationship I was thinking of.

Well, you end up doing a lot of weird things when you make ESG the driving force in your economic outlook (other than the idea that there's no negative impact to easy money policy) and you don't make sure you actually have the means and the technology in line to support and manage the markets denuded of their prior source of exchange. It's like announcing and moon shot and then forgetting to make sure we have the means to make a rocket.
