The 1989 to 1992 phase of the Afghan Civil War began after the Soviet Union withdrew from Afghanistan, leaving the Afghan communist government to fend for itself against the Mujahideen. After several years of fighting, the government fell in 1992. However, the civil war continued with insurgents such as the Taliban attempting to bring down the new government

I knew Ms. Nevine very well. She was very nice, but she always looked sort of worried and grumpy while I saw her.

Seeing that the Soviets left Afghanistan on February 15, 1989 and the the CIA armed the North Alliance and not the Taliban. The entire post from original intent is not factually correct and does not make sense.

Daniel Boyd worked in construction before moving to Peshawar, Pakistan, in October 1989. He was sponsored by a Muslim relief group to help refugees from the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan by working as a mechanic.[2] He trained with the mujahideen and fought against the Soviet-backed forces in Afghanistan.[3] He took the Muslim name Saifullah ("Sword of God").

SOOO if he was "trained with/by the Mujahdeen in the 1980's then he is a CIA trained operative!! Whether direct or "dotted-line"...

Don't act so smug when you clearly have no idea what any of this is about.
