Retreat or Con Job? The Afghanistan Withdrawal Explained [PREVIEW]

In an exclusive new podcast for patrons, Abby Martin and Mike Prysner go beyond the headlines and give the facts about the major Afghanistan withdrawal that Biden announced this week, covering what it really means for the US empire in the country and the region, the Taliban's political future, as well as the true cost and legacy of America's longest war. After 20 years of occupation and 40 years of covert war, why is the US really letting go of the country's vast resource wealth? Donor submitted questions about the foreign policy pivot are also addressed in the episode. We hope you enjoy it, thank you so much for your support!
