9/11 changed Afghanistan, but now it's back where it started
About this episode
The episode discusses the impact of 9/11 on Afghanistan and features interviews with veterans of the war.
Already scarred by decades of war, Afghanistan became the center of America's response to 9/11 after the Taliban harbored the men who planned the attacks. Over 20 years of what's known there as "The American War," hundreds of thousands, mostly civilians, died. Special correspondent Leila Molana-Allen and videographer Eric O'Connor spoke with three men who fought in that war. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders.
