Listen "Insights/4: Afghanistan, Pakistan and "Project Taliban" with Mohsin Dawar"
Episode Synopsis
Afghanistan, Pakistan and "Project Taliban"
Join Lynne O’Donnell for the 8AM Media podcast series, Insights. Lynne talks with generals, diplomats, soldiers, journalists, politicians, activists, people who have front row seats for conflicts around the world, and citizens with a story to tell, happy or sad.
For this first series, Afghanistan is the focus. Lynne and her guests talk about the collapse of the republic in August, 2021, and the impact since — for the people of Afghanistan, for the security of the region, for the safety of the world. It’s important, interesting and insightful.
This week, Lynne talks to Mohsin Dawar, a Pakistani human rights activist, former parliamentarian, and founder of the National Democratic Movement. He’s from North Waziristan, which borders Afghanistan and is bearing the brunt of what he calls “Project Taliban” — the violent return of Islamist extremism that is bringing war back to his homeland.
