YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Gareth Porter, independent historian and journalist for Inter Press Service News Agency, discusses Stanley McChrystal's role in extralegal assassinations and the Bagram prison torture program, Rumsfeld's attempt to divert covert special operations from the somewhat accountable CIA to the Pentagon, the mixed messages in U.S. personnel and strategy changes in Afghanistan and how the U.S. continues to create enemies to justify staying in Iraq.
