This is somewhat of a myth by exageration, the US supported the mujahideen, people seem to equate the Taliban and the mujahideen but only a small subset of them became the Taliban, a good number of them would become the Northen Alliance who would resist the Taliban. And it must be said while the US had been the masters of imperialism lately that's no excuse for Soviet imperialism
