This episode explores the origins and early years of the War in Afghanistan, beginning after 9/11 when the U.S. invaded to topple the Taliban and destroy Al-Qaeda. Initial victories gave way to a long insurgency, complicated by Afghanistan’s geography, tribal politics, and the Taliban’s resilience.Efforts at nation-building faced corruption and mistrust, while the U.S. shift of focus to Iraq weakened the mission.
