A documented and rigorous narrative of the West's failures in Afghanistan, from September 11th to the fall of Kabul. Expert Amin Saikal highlights the full story of the US intervention, from September 11th to the current crisis. After an initial rapid military offensive, the US found itself entangled in a prolonged struggle to change Afghanistan, without achieving its goals. Saikal shows how this failure is underscored by the long-standing efforts to capture Osama bin Laden, the inability to secure a sustainable government through "democracy promotion" efforts, and the lack of a broader strategy in the "war on terror".
It offers an insightful narrative of one of the most significant US foreign policy failures - and examines the dramatic consequences for the people of Afghanistan.
