Is the Taliban Jewish?

When I was very young, my friend and I set up a "committee against the war in Afghanistan." The war in question was the Soviet intervention in this country, if anybody remembers. I also had fantasies about going to fight the Soviets there. Being against war while fantasizing about participating in one is a normal leftist thing. Ask me more about it. The friend disappeared long ago in Me'ah She'arim. Maybe I should find him.
