    A politcal force based on fundamentalist Islam that ruled Afghanistan from September, 1996 until their overthrow by the United States following the 9/11 attacks. They were notorious for their theocratic denial of human rights, especially to women, ethnic clensing, their "ban on culture", including the destruction of several ancient historical sites, and their sheltering of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
