America and the Taliban: Part Two (S41E12)

Part 2 of America and the Taliban focuses on how the war effort, which started under President George W. Bush, played out during President Barack Obama’s tenure. The documentary examines how a pattern of Afghan civilian casualties incurred during raids and other errant attacks severely undercut the U.S. military’s effort to win “hearts and minds” in the country, how U.S. efforts to train Afghan forces ran up against corruption and low morale and how the Taliban regained ground in Afghanistan.
