Perhaps not, but many of the mujahiddeen trained using CIA funds are now Taleban or Al Qaeda fighters.

Well, then if you don't require facts to believe in your own assertions, I'd say you just go on believin'.

Originally posted by normbenignno presumptions here. these are the ones either directly installed by the us, or who came to power in coups backed by the cia. there are others who came to power and remained there thanks to us funding, but i left those out because "installed" was kinda the operative phrase here.
A lot of presumptions going on as far as being "installed by the US."
To be sure, we engaged and assisted many of those listed, including Saddam Hussein.
