To put it simply, ISIS-K (Isis in Afghanistan) doesn't think the Taliban are that batshit crazy enough

You know it's a tough neighborhood when even the Taliban have to fight terrorists who think they don't go far enough.

Religion is the excuse. Power is the goal.

Soviet intervention in Afghanistan= " brutal invasion" American intervention in Afghanistan= "conflict that ends with a happy agreement" Thanks, infographics show

Two groups of evil people perceive eachother as competition

They don't have same goals. ISIS wants to create Islamic republic across the world and increase the area under Islamic rule. Taliban, though equally extremist, are nationalists and want independent Afghanistan. They are currently fighting for the neighbouring areas in Iran and Pakistan that they consider were historically Afghan

Muslim+afghan+pashtun here, you repeated a few lies that have been circulating in the internet. Social media and television aren't banned in the slightest in Afghanistan. There are bans on women's education (unfortunately) but not to the extent that you mentioned. 13 of the 34 provinces allow women to go to school and university, and almost 80% of private institutions allow women's education across the board; from the 1st grade up to masters degrees. Women can travel alone in Afg contradicting the notion that "women are banned from public places". Plus, persecution from the government is at an all time low, much lower than the previous "democracy". All in all, corruption and crimes have been reduced, and harmful drug trades disrupted. Edit: I am not saying whether they are objectively good or bad; I am just making a comparison, and by comparison they are slightly better than the previous Afghan government. Edit 2: Nursing students will be allowed into universities in the upcoming semester, and medical students the semester after that. Note that this is only for public universities. Private universities were open to women from the beginning.

To put it simple: the Taliban is more so a Pashtun nationalist group, while ISIS views national allegiance as heretical. To name one of the big reasons.

It's because they see each other as a threat. Even if they share the same goals, they're both paranoid enough to assume they'll drive a knife through the other's back.

If they liked each other and cooperated, they would be that much more terrifying

ISIS: Child of US Taliban: Father of US

as a Muslim, I appreciate the clarification you give about their extremism not being Islam's cor

It's sad to say America had a hand in creating both organizations, Blessed Be.

Understanding the complex dynamics behind their mutual animosity sheds light on the deep-rooted historical, ideological, and regional factors at play.

This was an interesting video. I loved how you explained it in a simple yet informative way. Thanks!

In general, the Taliban are still better in terms of how they interpret Islamic sharia law in their daily lives, although still at an extreme level. Their focus is also only on their own country, Afghanistan. ISIS, on the other hand, does not show a proper application of Islamic sharia law at all; in fact, it can be said to be completely opposite to what is taught in the holy book of Muslims (the Qur'an). That is why many Muslim-majority countries are actually very anti-ISIS.

SHOCKER! Terrosists don’t get along with one another.

Short answer is hate breeds more hate.

I'm a Pashtun from Pakistan and appreciate how you started this video off of!

I really love how this guy/team put so much effort into this in the video they dont just say like most people do "all muslims are like this"

It's definitely important to distinguish the various branches within Islam. There's too much ignorance when it comes to how muslim faiths work and groups Taliban and ISIS have interpreted the Quran into such an extreme.

1:00 Thanks for this, youre literally the first person I saw who mentions this and its so important that people know that. The media INTENTIONALLY doesnt mention it.

During the cold war... USA: Here are a bunch of weapon, now go fight those Soviets! Insurgents: Ok When Taliban rose up... USA: Alrighty, uhh can we have our Rocket Launchers back? Taliban: *no*

Imagine starting a war against people who are completely minding their own fcking business. and when they react you call them terrorists.

Peace+Peace = MasterPiece

very impressive, now talk about israel without getting cancelled

Please make a video about Boko- haram a terror group in Nigeria.

I am a Pashtun and lived with taliban but this is true about extremist groups and also Peaceful ones. I lived with peaceful ones and are very nice people but the extremist are just lost.

The Quran also says all Muslims should seek knowledge, which goes against women not going to school. So the Taliban apparently doesn't read the Quran.

“In 1979 the Soviets thought they should have their own Vietnam and invaded Afghanistan to prevent a US sponsored Islamic insurgency. In response to various crisis, Olympic Games were boycotted.” Oversimplified

Osama playing with two toy planes is foul 😭😂

I love your animations!

The reason these two groups hate each other is the same reason they hate Christians and Jews. There are small differences in their beliefs about God that are all they need to hate each other.

Thank you for taking the time to say these are not the view of all muslims. Although I’m not a Muslim myself (I am a Christian) who are more or less the same in our beliefs and origin. It’s really important to be conscious and not generalize everything who believes in Islam. I know we’re hard wired to stereotype and make assumptions, it’s easier said than done.

Actually the Taliban are part of the Deobandi sect of Islam, it's a bit different than traditional Sunni beliefs. Deobandism comes from Deoband, UP, India.

Simple Answer: Hate is their bread and butter, without hate they couldn't survive.

Imagine you have 2 brothers but the mother loves one brother more than the other, one brother not getting enough scraps to eat and we have a Mujahedeen situation to deal with

Good job on the motion graphics. The whole thing reads as a big mess.

big respect for what you said in the intro

They just see each other as rivals.

There is one lesson: War against each other (regardless of religion, etc) never changes, instead it brought more hate, corruption and chaos. I wish the chaos ends that way...

Taking holier than thou to a whole new level.

As an Iranian, this is the real face of Islam

I love how u informed it all

Can u make a video on current situation between Pakistan and Iran.

"I'm the CIA"S favorite" "No I AM!" "Lets get ready to rummmmmble!"

Hi, long term viewer here. please make a video on recent events. maybe the difference between Nakba and Intifada, and the settler violence in the West Bank.

Peace +Peace = Masterpeace 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Love the vs vids

im a pashtun from afghanistan i would suggest you to never believe what is said on media and in this video as well

Every christian and muslim, every conservative and liberal, they all say the same thing: "My people are peaceful and honorable. The extremists do not represent us. But THOSE extremists in that OTHER group do represent their people. THEY are all the same."

I love his voice. No matter what he's talking about, I'm going to listen😊

the narcissism of small differences in their fan-fiction

I know this is supposed to be serious but that animation of Bin Laden playing with the toy airplanes like a child was pretty funny

I appreciate how you don’t refer to all Muslims as terrorists, it’s something a lot of people don’t understand.

Pretty sure Shakira law states clearly "hips shall never lie"

No matter how much in common a person has with his fellow man , the powers that be will always find a way to keep them divided, it’s easy to do in the US cause we all come from such diverse backgrounds but then you go to the Middle East where most people are not only the same race but the same religion and there is still divide , branches of religion and even more division branched off of that. This world will never know peace

Didnt know Taliban and ISIS were cannon in SCP universe.

It's simple, nobody like competition.

If there was no oil involved it would be a backwater skirmish

Excellent summery ✌🏼

The complexity of a house divided against itself.😮

In 2024, what is stopping you from upgrading your animation skills?

TBF they're both quite hateable

Evil aways eats itself.

It's The SIMS voices for me 😂

whats the song on the background, or beat, whatever it is

They don't have a brutal interpretation of Sharia Law, they are the true manifestation of the Sharia Law -A former Muslim

Gorbachev pulled the Soviet Union out.

Too complicated. Thanks for the comments

Me at 6:34: This doesn't look like a correct reciting of events to me. Me at 13:58: WAIT, WHAT???!!!

the irony of american anti air missiles later bringing down american helicopters.......

No government should be led by religion.

Not even between Muslims get alone with each other.

Cancer vs Tumor World in chaos again

The difference? One fight the empire and succeed. The other is the said empires's poodle.

Don't hear too much about extreme branches of any other religion out there

One defends their homeland, one invades homelands. It aint that hard

Some important information that wasnt mentioned. At some point there were talks between the Taliban and ISIS basically trying to lay down a cease fire and plan for both their futures together after the Taliban found out about ISIS poaching many of their officers. Talibans proposed that they both be two emirate states (basically what what Afghanistan is now) ISIS would control Syria and the Taliban would control Afghanistan. Both sides would work together and id imagine form some sort of an aliance. ISIS however declares themselves a Caliphate, that is the equivalent of declaring yourself a Pope in the Muslim word (not the same just easiest thing to compare it too) and demanded nothing less. As shown neither side liked agreed, and made relations go from hostile to basically war. Thought i would mention this as I saw this as VERY important to the conflict and remember, im just some guy on the internet so take what i say with a grain of salt.

Beside the political or drama gotta ask you something who do think would win the fight without support with both power at it hight?

2200 ISIS-K members is a scary amount for Afghanistan. The KKK is known to have 3k-8k members in the US. The number of domestic terrorists in America is far more scary than those around the world.

When Americans left Vietnam, their neighbor nations China and Cambodia waged war on Vietnam

The Taliban did not have "control" over the entire country by the late 1990s. The Northern Alliance, for example. was still battling the Taliban ( Somewhere between ~10 to 20%, depending on the source and the year in question, of Afghanistan territory was either contested or not in Taliban hands. ). It was Northern Alliance forces that helped make the invasion of 2001 an initial success. The large numbers of foreign ground troops arrived a bit later. Foreign troops, indigenous personel, equipment, tactics etc. became more effective as the years went by helping (along with previous engagements etc.) to greatly reduce foreign casualties in Afghanistan during the last number of years before withdrawing. Sunni branch of Islam is not one of the largest, but by far the largest group (~85-90%, depending on the source). The Shia branch is second. There are different schools, factions etc within each branch. Most Muslims take the Koran literally. It is more a question of interpretation, practice, schools of thought, use or lack of use of supplemental texts (Hadith etc.), history etc that explains the divergent groups and ideas between and within Sunni and Shia. Etc. One needs to remember to verify what is being stated.

11:27 bro getting mad 😂

I saw a bumper sticker once that said " I learned all I need to know about Islam on 911".

“Everyone else in the world needs to think like us or die!” …. Geez

Obviously you didn't read the sources if shariah law to make this video. There is no peaceful version of shariah. Eighth century warlords write shariah for warlords to rule. The difference between Isis and Taliban is who gets to be the ruling warlord.

I speak as a staunch Pakistani supporter of the Palestinian liberation cause: *We don't care what happens in Afghanistan as long as you keep your problems and your people within the violent borders of Afghanistan. We want nothing to do with your radical ideologies.*

It all depends on the master who feed them ...

One religion all problems

❣الخمس صلوات جماعة في المسجد. ❣ختم القرآن قرآءة فى كل شهر (ما تيسَّر يوميا). ------------------------------------------------------------------ ❣The five congregational prayers in the mosque. ❣ Complete the Qur’an by reading it every month (whatever is possible daily).

Five words: The narcissism of small differences.

Quality human citizens 😂

They hate each other because nobody can tell the difference between them💀

Could you possibly do a video comparing the Taliban and Al Qaeda I’ve been curious about if they’re similar in any way

Word is it's been 3 days since anyone saw the channel owner

Dates are incorrect. The USA under the Trump administration negotiated a peace deal with the Taliban in early 2020 and the nation fell to the Taliban in August of 2021, not 2022.

Sharia means law in Arabic, so you just keep saying (law, law).

These two groups are doing more harm than good in their own nations🤦🏾‍♀️. I pray for them🕊🙏🏽✝️

I'm a huge fan of Sufi myself. All about winning people with poetry, beauty, and humanity. You can win with a different way.
