    Mujahideen is collective name when they unite to fight against foreign occupation, before 9/11 they were fighting against each other as they usually do in brief periods between wars with foreign invaders.

    Paddy is well informed.

    Any disagreement is due to not reading his posts properly.

    Disagreeing is not just wrong, it is also twaty.
