Just Something About Her with Jennifer Palmieri

Chaos in Afghanistan with Elise Jordan, Part 2


Listen Later

The United States has officially ended its longest war, as Jennifer closes out our deep-dive into the war in Afghanistan during Part 2 of her conversation with Elise Jordan, which was originally recorded on August 24, 2021. (If you haven't listened to Part 1, we highly suggest you go back and listen to that first.) Elise worked for the National Security Council and the State Department under President George W. Bush. She lived in Afghanistan while working on an international development project and as a journalist. In this episode, Elise shares her experience embedding with female U.S. Marines in 2010, who were tasked with connecting with local women and girls. She shares the divides between what Afghans wanted and needed and what the U.S. was able to provide, her frustration with media coverage of America’s longest war, and what she hopes for in the coming months and years.
