US military strategy from eastern Afghanistan
All this week, we mark the eighth anniversary of the war in Afghanistan with a series of conversations. We revisit the attack that killed eight American soldiers from Colorado Springs’ Fort Carson over the weekend. To get some perspective on the attack and on broader military strategy, we hear from Major T.G. Taylor, who is with the International Security Assistance Force in Jalalabad, in eastern Afghanistan, where the attack took place.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
