Last week, after twenty years of conflict, the Afghanistan Taliban took effective control of the country.  The rapid collapse of Afghan government forces clearly surprised American officials and has led to the continuing chaotic removal of Afghan refugees, American citizens, citizens of allied Nato countries, and NGO workers.  This episode of Beyond Your News Feed offers some perspective and context for these remarkable developments.  The PC Political Science Department’s comparative politics of the Middle East expert and Associate Professor of Political Science Gizem Zencirci joins host William Hudson to provide perspective and expert analysis of the situation in Afghanistan.
