Ten years ago, less than a month after 9/11, in October 2001, American and British warplanes launched airstrikes in Afghanistan. Now with a tentative withdrawal date set for 2014, we wonder what this war has accomplished and whether it was worth the cost. Today we talk with award-winning journalist Edward Girardet, author of Killing the Cranes: A Reporter's Journey Through Three Decades of War in Afghanistan.
