(Ar. Students) Islamic fundamentalist militants who came to power in Afghanistan in 1995 and were expelled from the country a few years later by American and native forces.
The word “Taliban” comes from the Arabic word talib, which means “student.” The organization was founded by Mullah Mohammed Omar, an extremely enigmatic individual who went into hiding in 2001 after the organization's fall from power. Members of the Taliban were originally religious students who developed a very conservative interpretation of Islam and the Sharia, or Islamic law. During Afghanistan's long and bitter civil war, members of the Taliban began a slow rise to power, and the group ultimately took control of most of Afghanistan, promising to put a stop to infighting between various bands of mujahideen, or groups of soldiers led by warlords, to make Afghanistan a safer place.

Get the Taliban mustache mug.Talibanet (Tal-ee-bah-net)
n. The Talibanet are infamous internet terrorists (see also Troll) and the main objective of the Talibanet is to spread sadness throughout the e-land, by engaging in as much mindless, illogical, hate-speech as their furious little fingers can type up.
The Talibanet have a death grip on YouTube right now. They are usually lurkers, posting no videos of their own, but they are very verbose in their criticism of other YouTubers. Some of the Talibanet can be Googled to reveal that they are very prolific indeed, and have spammed up other discussion groups as well (i.e. run a Google search for negroidlatte).
Talibanet is a combination of the words Taliban and Internet.
