An Insider's Perspective on Afghanistan
With
Roy Gutman
Foreign Editor, McClatchy Newspapers
Author, “How We Missed the Story:
Osama Bin Laden, the Taliban and the Hijacking of Afghanistan”
And
Dr. Nadir Atash
Author, “Turbulence: The Tumultuous Journey
of One Man's Quest to Bring Change in Afghanistan”
Moderated by
Rick “Ozzie” Nelson
Director, CSIS Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Program
Senior Fellow, CSIS International Security Program
Mr. Gutman, who won the 1993 Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the Balkans, and Dr. Atash, one of the first Afghan-Americans to return to Afghanistan after 9/11, trace in their books the historic, political, and cultural realities of Afghanistan and its relationship with the West at various points in time. They provide perspectives on how critical the understanding of a country's history, culture, and people is to formulating U.S. policy and an assessment of current counterinsurgency and reintegration efforts.
