Stories From My Brothers: Tales of the Afghan Security Forces

GCV welcomes Jason Howk and LTG Haibitullah Alizai to Stories From My Brothers. We were going to release it under the Voices of the Resistance banner, but we had some audio issues and decided to publish it early before the topic got too stale.

On 9-11, GCV sits down with Ali Maisam Nazary, Head of Foreign Relations for the National Resistance Front of Afghanistan (NRF), and talks about all things Afghanistan. Who better to talk with than a leader inside the most active anti-Taliban resistance group on the battlefield?

GCV sits down with Major Ahmad Shapoor Nooristani. The two brothers-in-arms discuss Nuristan’s fascinating history and Ahmad’s time in some of Afghanistan’s most elite commando units. Major Nooristani is a proud graduate of Command and General Staff College.

GCV+F is proud to roll out a new podcast series inside Tales of the ANSF. Voices of the Resistance will platform all Afghans who are anti-Taliban. Our guest, Shuja Jamal, is the perfect guest to kick start this show. Shuja Jamal, a former member of the Office of the National Security Council (ONSC) and co-author of The Decline and Fall of Republican Afghanistan, provides listeners with rare insight and expert analysis.

GCV is delighted to have Momin Marofi, a Colonel in the Afghan National Army, on the show. GCV and Momin worked together closely in Afghanistan. The first half of the show is about Momin’s distinguished career. The second half focuses on Momin’s escape from Afghanistan, in which GCV played a small role.
