TRANSCRIPT AND SOURCES:
October 7th marks the ten year anniversary of the commencement of
NATO operations in Afghanistan. Although the impending illegal invasion
of Iraq in 2003 was enough to drive millions of people worldwide into
the streets in protest, there has never been the same widespread
resistance to the Afghan war.
This war has been deemed the “right war” and given a broad measure of
support from across the political spectrum because it is still linked
in the popular imagination with the events of 9/11. Even a cursory
interrogation of these assumptions, however, shows that the absurd
nature of this pretext for what has been all along an illegal invasion
and occupation of a sovereign nation.
