For more than two years, the Biden administration has been anything but transparent about its role in the failures that enabled the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan on Aug. 15, 2021, and the Islamic State suicide attack that killed 13 U.S. service members and 170 Afghans just 11 days later. In an incredible feat of research, Jerry Dunleavy and James Hasson have assembled many of these missing details in Kabul: The Untold Story of Biden’s Fiasco and the American Warriors Who Fought to the End. The result is an excoriating view of President Joe Biden’s poorly managed withdrawal and its far-reaching domestic, geopolitical, and personal consequences.
