YouTube Description
as posted by the channelI interview Ryan Grim, DC Bureau Chief from the Intercept, and Matthew Hoh, Senior Fellow for the Center of International Policy, on US involvement in Afghanistan, going back 40 years, what we did wrong when we aided the Mujahadeen against the Soviets, how we helped establish Al Queda and the Taliban, how we botched both the military and nation building components of the mission, the corruption of the Afghan forces and our own private contracting process, the dire poverty, the opium trade, what the Taliban may do next and how we should respond. This is a discussion you are not going to see on the corporate media which is interviewing only the war mongers who got us into this mess.
