Why would the outside world particularly care if they took over and controlled Afghanistan, brutal and nasty though they are?

2. Finance a world domination campaign of radical Islam using the opium trade revenues.

As I understand it, they've had plenty of support from
oil money (much of it close to the Bush family).
And nothing has helped Islamic Crazies in the past eight years as much as the US crashing around the world killing people.
But -- giving your point the benefit of the doubt -- what
if the Taliban "dominated radical Islam" (whatever that means)?
How does this justify in any way the current military campaign in Afghanistan?? Quote:

3. To spread and take over Pakistan, thus gaining control over Pakistani nuclear weapons --- to use worldwide in their campaign of horror.

Wait a sec, I thought the Americans always complained that
they're already in Pakistan. Please tell me how the doomed military campaign in Afghanistan is supposed to stop them "spreading to Pakistan".
You really should read up on the Pashtun. It'd be an eye-opener for you.

4. To rise up worldwide and dominate, kill, and/or enslave all who do not follow their doctrine.

How -- again, assuming this is true -- could the current military campaign in Afghanistan
possibly have any effect on this??
Think for a minute. Afghanistan is a dirt-poor mountainous country. What happens there can hardly be of great concern to the US.
You guys have yet to offer anything the least bit convincing as to what the US could possibly achieve there.
