He united Islamic fighters he met in Afghanistan.
After fighting in the Soviet–Afghan war, bin Laden and associates organized and networked foreign mujahideen who had come to Afghanistan (many from Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries) into a new, transnational jihadi organization called al‑Qaeda. The Taliban arose later, and al‑Qaeda formed before it absorbed or allied with other groups.
