I supported the war. And actually I might well have supported an operation to remove the Taliban from power prior to 9/11. But news like this should remind us all that "regime change" can only solve so much. And just because the US played a large role in putting the current government there in place, that doesn't mean it's going to act in ways most Americans would approve of. And, clearly, a lot of things are going on under the new government (the one we're backing) that would leave many Americans aghast.
