"Was it worth it?"w/Retired Green Beret, MSG Juan Mata - a podcast by FHL Productions
from 2021-08-22T00:00
The closest many people ever get to Afghanistan is turning on the TV and watching events unfold as America tries to fully disengage from the conflict we've been fighting for 20 years. From this viewpoint, many Americans form opinions about whether or not we should have stayed or exited like the Biden Administration did in recent weeks. This week we get the perspective of someone who has actually been there, multiple times, and has trained the Afghan military special forces in an attempt to keep their government from collapsing. Ret. MSG Mata goes through his experience in Special Forces and the mission America has had there for several presidencies. While we didn't spend much time assigning blame, you'll find his explanation of what the outcome would have been if we had a different president.
