9/11: THE AUDIT OF WAR
You couldn’t make it up: the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks coincides almost perfectly with the fall of Afghanistan and the West is left wondering what it was all for. Gavin Esler, former diplomat Arthur Snell and terrorism expert Dr Maria Norris recall where they were on the day the world changed, and ask if we’ve learned the right lessons. Plus, will climate change plus conflict create a new kind of crisis in Afghanistan? And how did 9/11 change pop culture.
“We were told we’d seen the end of history. Then 9/11 happened.” – Gavin Esler
“All war is about resources.” – Maria Norris
“You can draw the cynical politics of the Trump era right back to 9/11.” – Arthur Snell
