Global News Watch and Michael Patrick Mulroy, National Security & Defense Analyst, ABC News and former Deputy Asst. Secretary of Defense for Middle East and CIA Paramilitary Operations sit down to discuss the unraveling of Afghanistans Capital City of Kabul over the last few days and the rapid rise to Power of the Taliban. After a whirlwind of media updates, Mick gave us an update on how quick the Afghanistan Government crumbled under the weight of the stronghold of the Taliban over the course of the last 72 hours. The first major Afghan city fell on Aug. 9. The last one, Kabul, capitulated just six days later. The offensive that returned the Taliban to power 20 years after they were ousted by a U.S.-led coalition seemed dizzyingly fast as millions of people are struggling to get out of the country as quickly and safely as possible. Mick shared with us whats beyond the Horizon, the imminent terrorist threats we will be facing while Afghanistan just became a " safe haven" for terrorist and extremist groups around the world, prompting Jihads and other terrorist groups to head back to Afghanistan to regroup. With Talibans take control over the main airport in Kabul, the U.S has sent over more troops in the past 24 hours to re-enforce and maintain the safety of the military base just clicks away to ensure they can get U.S and dual Citizens as well as Special Visa Holders out of the the country as fast as they can.
