Ah Parihaka,

You always have somethings up your sleeve.

Not to Parihaka.

The Mujhaideens (including the Arabs) were financed and trained by the ISI. They were also funded by the CIA and the British and some were even trained (please read Chapter 5 of the "The Unholy Wars" and other books). The CIA supplied the weapons also as did the Israelis and Chinese!

The infamous Pakistani bank BCCI was the conduit to the slush funds from western agencies.

The Mujahideens converted to the AQ and the Taliban (mere semantics though).

And now we have an interesting armed merry go round on our hands!
