    Lots of people made effort but I think you’d be accurate in saying that a large population were more readily willing to go back to the Taliban than those who opposed them vehemently.

      Nah, they didn’t make an effort. The Taliban was welcomed when they rolled in. The US military expected there would be resistance, but the Taliban had pretty much captured everything before we were even gone.
