Forever Wars: Why can’t America stop?
Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan. Why does the US keep going to war, and can voters stop it?
The United States is once again at war in the Middle East, and most Americans say it isn’t worth the cost.
Al Jazeera’s Josh Rushing asks why the US keeps fighting: oil, a $2.4 trillion defence industry, lobbyists or a political system that rarely holds anyone to account?
Retired General Mark Kimmitt and journalist Spencer Ackerman debate why, and whether voters can end the forever wars.
