Media Fatigue is No Excuse to Ignore the War

Reason's Anthony Randazzo recently sat down with New York-based nonprofit 92Y to discuss why the scheduled 2014 withdrawal from Afghanistan "doesn't really end American foreign policy of trying to nation build around the world."

Reason's Anthony Randazzo recently sat down with New York-based nonprofit 92nd Street Y to discuss this troubling reality, and why the 2014 withdrawal deadline "doesn't really end American foreign policy of trying to nation build around the world."

"doesn't really end American foreign policy of trying to nation build around the world."

Best guess for next recipient of dollars and drones - selected parts of Africa.
