Mujahedin is not the same thing as being Taliban. You do realize that right?
Yes, the Muhahadeen were set up with foriegn assistance and local co-ordination from the ISI in refugee settlements in the tribal belt, whereas the Taliban were set up with foriegn assistance and local co-ordination from the ISI in refugee settlements in the tribal belt.
Clear as mud

The confusion arises because the taliban were mujahadeen but were only one faction out of the ever shifting alliances of factions within the mujahadeen
