This week on the program: • What would happen if the United States pulled all of its troops out of Afghanistan before reaching a settlement with the Taliban? We ask Seth Jones of the Center for Strategic and International Studies (at the 2:16 mark) and Bill Roggio of the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (25:35) that exit question and a lot more. • And we'll end (41:51) with some perspective from Afghanistan. Abdul Habib Hassan is a country advisor to NATO in Kabul. He tells us what gives his family hope for tomorrow. —Music by DeBraun Thomas, Daniel Mohler, Smith Donaldson and Paul Mottram.
