9-11 Wars; A 20-Year Retrospective 03/18 7pm ET

Dear Friend,

For the 18th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, this webinar offers an opportunity to analyze Round 2 of the reconstituted “war on terror” which began following the 9/11 attacks. What started as an invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001 has developed into a massive network of counter-terror operations in more than 70 countries. Trillions of dollars and innumerable lost and disrupted lives later –

  1. what do we have to show it;
  2. where are we heading; and
  3. where we should be heading?

Our panelists will consider these critically important questions and more. A question and answer period will follow the presentations.

This event is open to all and free to watch, online at gp.org/live, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube
