		<description>&lt;i&gt;The Taliban&#8217;s de facto control over the area came after a string of bombings and attacks which caused considerable collateral damage among civilians.  Despite this, after years of dealing with what they described as &#8220;brutal and corrupt&#8221; police, they welcomed the Taliban as liberators.&lt;/i&gt; 
 
This is because, despite Antiwar.com/Pentagon propaganda, the locals in Iraq and Afghanistan generally blame the occupation for the attacks on civilians.  Islamic guerrillas don&#8217;t have a history of murdering their own civilians and destroying their own mosques, and are therefore a less likely suspect than the Islamophobic occupation.
