10. !!
And I'm curious what makes you think the Taliban would have anything to do with it. The Taliban's a localized phenomenon. The Ayatollahs in Iran are not Taliban. The Wahabis in Saudi Arabia are not Taliban.

I assume you meant "Islamic fundamentalists," but Taliban is not a synonym for that term.

I'm not big on picking nits, but I think we lose a lot in the discourse when we lump disparate groups together. It's part of the problem with thought and discourse in the USA.
