Through personal accounts from US war veterans who have served in Afghanistan, CNA investigates why Afghanistan has been left at the mercy of the Taliban.
After almost 20 years and trillions spent, the US government has conceded to signing a deal with the Taliban. Their hasty withdrawal has left a poorly trained Afghan Army incapable of defending the Taliban. What has caused this military stalemate?
Back home, disappointment and physical and emotional scars have impacted veterans and families through their combat with unwinnable wars. These have translated into suspicion and mistrust of the American government. Is this why veterans have joined white militia groups resulting in the FBI declaring them a national threat? The War Comes Home finds out if America’s global wars have radicalised its own military who are bringing the war back home.
