The war in Afghanistan was never just fought on the battlefield, it was fought in Washington, too. In this powerful conversation, the failures of U.S. leadership, political restrictions, and deadly rules of engagement are exposed.
From President Biden’s controversial remarks during the withdrawal to the harsh reality of Afghan allies who sacrificed 60,000 lives, this clip reveals the devastating cost of politics interfering with warfighters on the ground.
