Answer:

Taliban.

Explanation:

In other to demonstrate total support, the US did not provide any arms or financial  resources to the Taliban,but the alliance came from the fact that the Taliban were anti Iran,(US antagonist) and anti-Shiite. They(US) believed that the support from Taliban will enable them to  gain an allies against Iran, and for smooth channelling  of oil pipeline routes out of the Gulf region through Pakistan.The reason was that these pipeline routes should be under  her(US) allies in this case the TALIBAN. The plan was that if  the pipeline route  would be  through the Pakistan to the Gulf.Hence a good Arab Allies  would be needed.

Which of the following individuals pardoned former confederates and did not attempt to protect the rights of newly freed slave
Rzqust [24]

C. Andrew Johnson

Andrew Johnson was the seventeenth president of the US and followed Lincoln after his assassination. He was a Democrat and as vice president offered a good bridge to the South as the Civil War was ending but as president he was not trusted by the Republicans.

Andrew Johnson pardoned Confederate leaders, allowing them to keep their land and sometimes positions in society. He provided an easy path back into the Union and did not protect blacks from the growing power of groups like the Ku Klux Klan. Johnson vetoed a civil rights act that would have prevented segregation and violence against former slaves. His policies would convince Republicans that they would have to take Reconstruction over in Congress.
