The Afghanistan Papers

Book • 2021
The Afghanistan Papers is a non-fiction book that exposes the U.S.

government's decades-long failures in Afghanistan.

Based on leaked documents and interviews, the book reveals a pattern of deception and misrepresentation regarding the war's progress and objectives.

The authors detail how U.S.

officials consistently downplayed the challenges and overstated their successes, leading to a prolonged and ultimately unsuccessful military campaign.

The book raises serious questions about government transparency and accountability, and its impact on public trust.

The Afghanistan Papers provides a critical examination of the war's history and its lasting consequences.
