There's supposed to be different varieties of Taliban. Some are more partial to Al Quaeda than others but the majority seem to be very, very, very conservative Muslim followers of Wahabi.

To me, this Taliban - Al Quaeda connection is a foreign policy unknown in 2009. I wish we did know more about it. The little that I've read indicates that the majority of the Taliban do not necessarily support the tactics of Al Quaeda. On the other hand, there's a minority that seems to support them.
