      No, that’s on Afghans themselves. US armed the mujahideen fighters and a faction of that diverse group later on formed Taliban (and their opposition)

          I suggest you read the article on Taliban for a start. Mujahideen fighters were a diverse group. What afterwards became Taliban was one part, but so were what became some of their enemies.

          Claiming CIA created Taliban takes agency away from the Afghans themselves.
