This is Reagan with the founders of the TALIBAN in the White House. Of course we created al qaeda and the taliban. They didnt come out of no where. With the help of republican joe wilsons secret funding, the taliban became a terrorist group during the reagan administration.

NOBODY to blame but ourselves for 911.

Its funny how the C9 , the right wing kooks, foxed spews and every ex military calls the taliban terrorists, but REAGAN called them the equals to the FOUNDING FATHERS of America! WHen Joe Biden makes a comment about the Taliban, hes a nut, but REAGAN compares them to the founding fathers and hes a hero?

what a joke everything that is REAGAN.

Peace.

No surprise with me TOS, I'm just throwing bombs as all anarchists do. In fact, wanna see how it works?

Yep, Reagan put his spin on it but in truth his personal touch was more Central America but that said, Reagan didn't start the creation of the radical elements but in fact inherited it. From who did he inherit it from? Why the real war party of the 20th century and the first so-called Peace President.

Distorting History
These "human rights" and "peace" buzzwords serve to distort the history of US foreign policy. Here again, the US media has failed to mention a crucial "missing link" -- a factual piece of information on Carter’s presidency which has a direct bearing on our understanding of the ongoing post-9/11 crisis.
Amply documented, but rarely mentioned in 9/11 news reports, the "Islamic Militant Network" (the forerunner of Osama bin Laden’s Al Qaeda), was actually created during Jimmy Carter’s presidency (1976-1981). In July 1979, Carter signed a presidential directive to launch a secret plan in support of the Mujahideen in Afghanistan. Confirmed by former CIA director, Robert Gates, in his book, From the Shadows, this "secret plan" was instrumental in triggering the Soviet-Afghan war. (Robert Gates, From the Shadows: The Ultimate Insider's Story of Five Presidents and How They Won the Cold War, Maintenance Mode ).
Most American high school history books describe how the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, "without provocation and with overwhelming force". America then "came to the rescue" of the Afghan "resistance". This happened under president Jimmy Carter.
Yet Carter’s National Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski confirms that it was the US and not the Soviet Union which started the war:
"According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day, I wrote a note to the president in which I explained to him that in my opinion this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention…." (Interview with Zbigniew Brzezinski, Le Nouvel Observateur, 15-21 November 1998)
In other words, the Soviet-Afghan war was triggered on the orders of President Carter, the latest recipient of the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize.
Jimmy Carter was not only instrumental in unleashing the war (which has been ongoing for the last 23 years), he was also the architect of the CIA’s covert support to Islamic terrorism. In fact, it turns out that prime 9/11 suspect, Saudi born Osama bin Laden, was recruited during that period "ironically under the auspices of the CIA, to fight the Soviet invaders". (See Michel Chossudovsky, War and Globalisation, The Truth behind September 11 , Global Outlook, Shanty Bay, 2002, Chapter 2)
Confirmed by the Afghan Project which has collected hundreds of CIA and State Department documents, cables and memoranda: the CIA "had developed contacts" [meaning support] in the course of 1979 with a number of Islamic terrorist organisations. The objective was to not only unseat the pro-Soviet People's Democratic Party of Afghanistan (PDPA) government but also to unleash a war with the Soviet Union.
Meanwhile, in April 1979, elected Pakistan prime minister Zulfilcar Ali Bhutto, had been overthrown in a military coup and sentenced to death on the orders of General Zia al-Haq. The Carter administration not only supported Pakistan’s new military rulers, they used them in waging the CIA’s covert war in Afghanistan:
[starting during the Carter administration] relations between the CIA and the ISI [Pakistan's military intelligence] had grown increasingly warm following [General] Zia's ouster of Bhutto and the advent of the military regime,'... During most of the Afghan war, Pakistan was more aggressively anti-Soviet than even the United States. Soon after the Soviet military invaded Afghanistan in 1980, Zia sent his ISI chief to destabilize the Soviet Central Asian states. The CIA only agreed to this plan in October 1984.... `the CIA was more cautious than the Pakistanis.' Both Pakistan and the United States took the line of deception on Afghanistan with a public posture of negotiating a settlement while privately agreeing that military escalation was the best course. (Diego Cordovez and Selig Harrison, Out of Afghanistan: The Inside Story of the Soviet Withdrawal, Oxford University Press, New York, 1995. See also the review of Cordovez and Harrison in International Press Services (IPS), 22 August 1995).
In turn, the CIA-sponsored guerrilla training was integrated with the teachings of Islam. The madrasas were set up by Wahabi fundamentalists financed out of Saudi Arabia:
"t was the government of the United States who supported Pakistani dictator General Zia-ul Haq in creating thousands of religious schools from which the germs of Taliban emerged." (Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA), RAWA Statement on the Terrorist Attacks In the US, Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG), CRG -- RAWA statement on the terrorist attacks in the US , 16 September 2001)
US support to the Mujahideen initiated during the Carter administration led to the pumping of "billions of dollars into the Afghan cause and thousands of Islamic zealots were given specialist training in the US and Britain." (Review of John Cooley’s Unholy Wars - Afghanistan, America and International Terrorism, Unholy Wars ):
"In the United States they experienced tough courses in endurance, weapons use, sabotage, and killing techniques, communications and other skills. They were required to impart these skills to the scores of thousands of fighters who formed the centre and the base of the pyramid of holy war." (John K. Cooley, Unholy Wars - Afghanistan, America and International Terrorism, London Pluto Press, 1999, p. 81.)
General Zia ul-Haq was a protégé of both the Carter and Reagan administrations. His government played a key role in the recruitment and training of the Mujahideen:
The CIA became the grand coordinator: purchasing or arranging the manufacture of Soviet-style weapons from Egypt, China, Poland, Israel and elsewhere, or supplying their own; arranging for military training by Americans, Egyptians, Chinese and Iranians; hitting up Middle-Eastern countries for donations, notably Saudi Arabia which gave many hundreds of millions of dollars in aid each year, totaling probably more than a billion; pressuring and bribing Pakistan -- with whom recent American relations had been very poor -- to rent out its country as a military staging area and sanctuary; putting the Pakistani Director of Military Operations, Brigadier Mian Mohammad Afzal, onto the CIA payroll to ensure Pakistani cooperation. (Phil Gasper, Afghanistan, the CIA, bin Laden, and the Taliban International Socialist Review, November-December 2001, Afghanistan, the CIA, bin Laden, and the Taliban )
The basic framework of CIA covert support set up under the Carter administration was continued during the Reagan presidency. There was no fundamental disagreement between Democrats and Republican regarding the conduct of the Soviet-Afghan war:
When Ronald Reagan became president in 1981, he found the Democratic-controlled Congress eager to increase spending on the Afghan war. A congressional staffer told a reporter, "It was a windfall [for the new administration]. They'd faced so much opposition to covert action in Central America and here comes the Congress helping and throwing money at them, putting money their way and they say, 'Who are we to say no?"(Ibid)
From Global Research: The Noble War Prize

So you see TOS, the real culprit and root cause of Al Qaeda and the radical jihadist blowback against America was Jimmy Carter and a democrat controlled congress. Thanks for the memories!

WOLAKOTA!

And one other thing and pay very close attention because you will learn this the hard way one day.

When the Russians were fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan, we (the USA) were supporting the Taliban with weapons and money. We also helped support Saddam Hussein. Ronald Reagan, working with the enemy...delicious.

Don't forget how Eisenhower at the request of the British and MI6 had the CIA in 1953' create a coup in Iran to remove the democratically elected Mossadeq because his leadership was effecting British Petroleum profits. In that coup lay the very roots of the radical islamic revolution that came to the surface in 1979' to overthrow the US puppet in the Shah.

Let's see, the US gov't was the root cause of Saddam Hussein (google Hussein CIA asset and follow the trail) radical islam in Iran, radical terrorism out of Afghanistan/Pakistan, numerous conflicts in Central/South America and yet we question Ron Paul's call to reel in the global american footprint and mischief making? Who's the real looney here?

This was my first thought when I saw this thread along with supplying the Mujaheddin with technology and knowledge. And you can take it further back to the ill-advised creation of the modern Middle East countries in the Ottoman Empire breakup and, in particular, the Balfour Declaration.

Absolutely. The current mess in the Middle East is as much caused by forced geographic boundaries benefiting the European colonial powers as is anything else.
