The US withdrawal from Afghanistan represents another catastrophic defeat for the United States - but how did it happen? The brilliant author Anand Gopal gives a masterclass - taking apart the idea the US forces were "the good guys", exposing the atrocities and human rights abuses they were responsible for, looking at the role played by US-backed militias, explaining the disaster of the so-called 'war on drugs' - and looking at what next for a country which has already suffered so much.Make sure you get Anand Gopal's brilliant book No Good Men Among the Living.Help us take on the right wing media: https://patreon.com/owenjones84Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-owen-jones-podcast.
