Who supplies Taliban? Is it possible to cut their supply lines?

When Soviets were in Afghanistan, US, Pakistan and Iran supplied the insurgents. Now that Russia helps the Coalition, Pakistan is a US ally, is it Iran who supplies them? Or who?

Update:

If it's really so, the only way to solve the problem is to split Taliban (after a conflict inside natural or provoked) and cooperate with the weaker party.

Update 2:

To TJ: you're right, but the governments need to deal with the world as it is.

Update 3:

To TJ again: I hate Taliban and don't take poppy :-))

    If people around the world would stop using, their money crop would become useless. So if you use , YOU supply them. If your neighbor uses, YOUR NEIGHBOR supplies them.

    They probably have multiple supply lines. Some are scrounged from the land. Some come from locals, either given, bought or stolen. Some come from fellow terrorist groups. some come from sympathizers
