freemocy, do you know anyhting AT ALL about the regions 2 to 5 on your list? My guess is that you don't? Surprise me...

Who would be resisting what in your view of "justified resistance in Afghanistan", Freemocy?

Hazaras resisting Hekmatyar?

Ex-Taliban supporters resisting Karzai?

Tajiks resisting Pashtuns?

Ahemed Shah Masood resisting the Taliban?

The Taliban resisting the Western/Northern Afghan forces?

It's rather more complex in that country, than just saying "Resistance is justified". Everyone believing they were "resisting" everyone else, and/or making pre-emptive attacks, is part of the reason why the place seems to be a perpetual state of civil war.

Regardless of Taliban extremist beliefs and doctrines;
American is a colonized country and they should fight
the latter and the coaliton the way they did with U.R.S.S (Russia actually)..

Most of the ground troops on both sides in that war were Afghan. Other than the Westerners backing the "Northern Alliance" and the Jihadi international brigade that was backing the Taliban.

But most of the actual troops on the ground, on both sides, were Afghan Muslims, of various ethnicities.

Always seemed to me that the Afghan war was as much about ethnic strife as it was about colonialism.

That sounds like a description of an automated reaction, not of justified resistance. Different concepts.
