Wake

President Trump wants out of Syria and his aides say the U.S. is keen to reassert itself as a liberating, not an occupying military force. Amid a push to wind down prolonged conflicts, should we expect an end to the U.S. mission in Afghanistan? Helping us answer that question are this week's guests: Vanda Felbab-Brown, senior fellow at the Brookings Institution's Center for 21st Century Security Gil Barndollar, director of Middle East studies at the Center for the National Interest Graeme Smith, author, "The Dogs Are Eating Them Now: Our War in Afghanistan" If you enjoy this discussion, follow Wake on Twitter @WakeOnAir.
