1:08:15Now PlayingThe final days of the United States’ twenty-year campaign in Afghanistan were chaotic and shocking. The government collapsed and hundreds of thousands attempted to flee the anarchy in fear for their lives as the country ended up back in the hands of the Taliban, the very group the U.S. had fought so hard to defeat. “Graveyard of Empires” chronicles America’s involvement in Afghanistan, from a covert to a full-blown war that dragged on for decades with tragic consequences. This program originally aired on September 19th 2021.
