Synopsis
1/6/09 As the war in Afghanistan moved further and further into the heart of American foreign policy, Dan Rather travels to Kabul to speak with commanding general of Western forces, General David McKiernan about the challenges as he sees them and the way ahead. Following the discussion, we travel to the Afghan-Pakistan border province of Khowst to see what life is like for American soldiers on the front-lines. While there we witness a suicide bombing aimed at their small outpost and a gun fight where US and Afghan soldiers and police skirmish with Taliban fighters across the border in Pakistan. Finally, we return to Kabul for a visit to a Red Cross orthopedic hospital where war amputees come to try to rebuild their broken bodies and their broken lives.
