Maybe try actually doing the search. Seems pretty obvious. There are details about the ethnic makeup of Afghanistan in there... but you have to actually look to get the info.

So you went from some, to many, to all.

I think the Afghanis don't view as a Christian occupation army, only the extremists do. Meaning the Taliban.
Right. Now you've taken my point and made it your own. I said some Afghanis probably feel this way... and you've gone ahead and verified that. I never said all of them felt that way, you tried to put that in my mouth.

Given the history of Afghanistan, I'm pretty sure they would unite to drive out the NATO force 'if' they wouldn't be welcoming them.
Afghanistan is not a united place with a single people. It is diverse. Some people will welcome foreign intervention, some won't. If NATO is so welcome in Afghanistan, why are NATO soldiers being killed? Obviously some Afghanis don't appreciate the occupation.
