2018: The CIA and America’s Secret Wars in Afghanistan and Pakistan

How is it possible that America is still engaged in seemingly interminable conflicts in South Asia? What happened?
What went wrong? There is no better person to explain this than STEVE COLL, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Ghost Wars and, most recently, Directorate S, the story of America’s intelligence, military, and diplomatic efforts to defeat Al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan since 9/11. Coll, the very best kind of old-school journalist, will tell us about this epic story of intrigue and ineptness.
