Afghanistan was never a safe harbor for terrorists.
The country's disaster began when the USSR invaded it. The U.S then decided to unleash an anti-proxy war against the soviets as part of its "cold war offensive". Since the natives of Afghanistan were Muslims, the U.S requested "Muslim militias" from its Muslim allies (Saudi Arabia-Pakistan), and thus the soviet union got defeated.
Then Afghanistan turned into a shithole. It was the making of the U.S's proxy war against the soviets !.
The result was the advent of Al-Qaeda.
The Taliban on the other hand were the natives of Afghanistan. Unlike the foreign "Muslim" proxies that came from Saudi Arabia loaded with "Wahhabism" and led by "Osama bin Laden".
