Scott Horton of The Scott Horton Show and The Libertarian Institute joins us to discuss his new book, Fool's Errand: Time to End the War in Afghanistan. After discussing Trump's plan to surge yet again, we get into the meat and potatoes of the book's deep dive into the history and politics of the Afghanistan war before arriving at the inevitable "why" of this senseless and brutal military endeavour. We even broach the disagreement on Bin Laden and 9/11.
