On COI #83, Kyle and Will break down the Biden administration’s new Afghan “peace plan,” which sets out a series of lofty goals for ending fighting in the country and setting up a post-war government. But after two decades of failure in Afghanistan, it’s unclear what the plan will accomplish beyond extending the American occupation.
