Show Notes
The United States political system, including its military, media, and have thoroughly failed the Afghan people. Worse still, after these failures came to a head in the shaky pull out of US forces in Afghanistan, America has not learned the lessons it has had years to figure out. On this episode of Power Report, Dan speaks with activist Arash Azizzada to give the situation in Afghanistan historical context, talk about the experiences of people living there, and how Biden might be the least to blame. Later, Bam joins the show to dissect how the big 3 cable networks bungled the Afghanistan story, and he gives insight on what the future could hold for the region's diverse populations.
