Concept note-2: -How did the Taliban gain power? Following the withdrawal of the Soviet Union from Afghanistan in 1989 and the subsequent collapse of Afghanistan’s government, the country descended into civil war. The Taliban drew support with promises to restore order and justice.

Concept note-3: -The United States went to Afghanistan in 2001 to wage a necessary war of self-defense. On September 11, 2001, al-Qaeda terrorists attacked our country. They were able to plan and execute such a horrific attack because their Taliban hosts had given them safe haven in Afghanistan.
