Hmm. Good. Where has the map gone?--TheFEARgod 23:51, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
Nice article... But what about the idea that the CIA covertly supported the Taliban in the Russian killings? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.27.196.40 (talk) 02:56, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, but this sounds like a fairytale and has very few sources. The war was fought to liberate women from unjust and sadistic oppression? That is the full story of its causes? It has narrative structure more consistent with a work of fiction (i.e. orientation, complication, resolution, coda, clearly predetermined heroes and villains) than an actual historic account. Either the average mental age of adults in the West has deteriorated to that of a seven year old, or this was written by a complete idiot who needs to be sent to back to primary school, or perhaps be committed to a mental asylum. Please look at other articles for a better template and rewrite this whole article based on their precedent. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.192.205.58 (talk) 18:57, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
Pakistan Army was heavily involved in the conflict where many of the army's soldier had fought in the battle. The rest can be read in the page. Would it be appropriate to move/or redirect this article as "Pakistan War in Afghanistan"?

The source provided (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpQI6HKV-ZY&feature=related) does not contain any information on this allegation. Also, it is from National Geographic, which itself does not provide citations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.99.79.126 (talk) 22:34, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
Is there any direct confirmation from Musharraf on this or is this some individual's claim made in a national geographic article?69.165.246.181 (talk) 03:45, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
there are several sources claiming this. Russia even had a northern alliance embassy in moscow. As for Turkey, Uzbekistan and tajikistan they too supported the northern alliance. Turkey was allied to the Uzbek members of the northern allaince whom are also turkic speaking — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.165.246.181 (talk) 03:52, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

Civil war in Afghanistan (1996–2001) → Afghan Civil War (1996–2001) – Must be consistent with other Civil War pages. George Ho (talk) 16:28, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

There are no sources provided to support the assertion that Russia, India, United States, Iran, Tajikistan supported Islamic State. You can put them back to sidebar but only after including reliable sources. Capitals00 (talk) 17:15, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

why there is two Uzbekistan in Afghan Civil War(1996–2001) main article here
If the scope of this article is to be limited to the period before the U.S.-led intervention of 7 October 2001, then we cannot claim this conflict was 'won' by the Northern Alliance. Before the intervention, they had their backs against the wall, being forced into guerrilla warfare from the sparsely populated mountains in the northeast. After the fall of Kabul in September 1996, which this article takes as its starting position, the Alliance lost huge swaths of terrain (mainly those controlled by Junbish and Hezbe Wahdat) until October 2001, with some temporary recoverings here and there and only some small gains to the north of Kabul. At best, the conflict should be described as a stalemate on the eve of the intervention. Although the Northern Alliance successfully petitioned the U.S. and allies to intervene in its favour in the weeks leading up to the invasion, which one may consider a significant diplomatic victory, "Fall of the Taliban government", "Northern Alliance enter Kabul" and "Destruction of al-Qaeda training camps" are all events that happened after 7 October. I propose we more strictly separate the two. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 22:57, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Afghan Civil War (1996–2001)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "afghanistan":
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 21:15, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
I think all the afghan conflict from 1979 to 2001 lack critical information on the Baluch/Baloch Involement in Afghanistan as they formed a sizeable community in the country having some 600,000-2 Million people. Some baluch were involed in the herat uprising such as Rasul Baloch and sardar jagran as baluchs formed like 40,000-60,000 people in Herat in 70s or 80s which were displaced in the afghan conflict and forced to migrate.
Other Key thing I would add is the Pakistani Baloch exailes in Afghanistan including I think It was taliban or other Islamist militia backed by Pakistan which shelled Baloch Refugee camps in Afghanistan during the period.
Other thing is that I read on Nimruz Front (Baluch Faction) securing most of the southern area with pakistan and Iran like Nimruz,Farah and Helmand provinces due to the rough fighting there focused on light artillery and mobile warfare with Pickups and that they managed to fight off the taliban and win till americans arrived and that even Iran backed them in 1999-2001 also to not mention they declared Independence just one month after 9/11 from Taliban.
