Noah dives into some of the history of the mujahideen, and how the U.S. began involvement with them and supporting them as a Cold War battleground state in the conflict against Russia. Brendan breaks down the antecedents to the Iraq and Afghanistan war, and how all of the elements of U.S. involvement in Afghanistan from the 1970’s-1990’s, especially their support and eventual rejection of the mujahideen, lead directly into the 20+ year conflict that defined the 21s century.
