On Sept. 11, 2001, Afghanistan was a hellhole controlled by the Taliban and a haven for al Qaeda. Two decades later, Afghanistan is right back where it started before America invaded. For this podcast, Rob marks the 20th anniversary of 9/11 and explains how, after 20 years of war, Afghanistan is more dangerous than ever.
