Hello Brandon,
I thought your readers might be interested in the upcoming documentary, THE BATTLE FOR MARJAH debuting exclusively on HBO, Thursday, February 17th. The film is the harrowing story of the U.S. Marines’ battle to liberate a key Afghanistan town. The premiere marks the first anniversary of this historic battle.
Journalist Ben Anderson, who spent two months with the American forces, offers an extraordinarily intimate look at the brutal realities of modern-day warfare in the The United States’ largest offensive in the war to date. Afghanistan: Operation Moshtarak was the first attack launched after the administration announced plans to send 30,000 troops to Afghanistan, serving as a key test of the U.S. counter-insurgency strategy against the Taliban. The campaign had four distinct phases: clear Marjah of Taliban, hold all ground seized, build infrastructure and governance, and transfer control to Afghan security forces. In addition to chronicling the operation, THE BATTLE FOR MARJAH asks whether the policy is a successful prototype for winning this kind of war.
