Actually Mujahideen generally refers to the fighters organized in Afghanistan to battle against Russian occupation.

It doesn't. Yes Mujahideen did fight in Afghanistan against the Soviet occupation. But it's blanket terminology for freedom fighter.

this may help:

It is very important to remember that Islam, like all major religions, has radicals that come in all shapes and sizes. They cannot be generalized together.


You suggested that you feared the groups currently planning attacks on us might be able to use thier control over governments to limit our oil supply. I am asking you for some documentation that the groups currently planning attacks on US have control over governments that could limit our oil supply.

I still do not see this in the article you linked, please do me the favor of quoting the relevant section in this thread if I have managed to overlook it until now.

I have no documentation other than what i have shown you (well without googling a needle in a haystack, and learning to read arabic) and what is in Imperial Hubris. (which is quite a bit - especially where Afghanistan is concerned)
