Program: Frontline #2702
Broadcast Date: Oct. 28, 2008
www.pbs.org/frontline/warbrief... FRONTLINE embeds with Bravo Company of the Army's 1st Infantry division in the Korengal River Valley, one of Afghanistan's most dangerous fronts. Attacks have reached an all-time high, now making Afghanistan a deadlier battlefield than Iraq.
The next president of the United States will inherit some of the greatest foreign policy challenges in American history—an overstretched military, frayed alliances, and wars on two fronts.
In "The War Briefing," FRONTLINE gives viewers a hard, inside look at the real policy choices the next president will face. The report features harrowing on-the-ground footage, as well as strategists and diplomats giving their best advice about how to correct past failures and how to shape a realistic foreign policy approach in the war against the Taliban and Al Qaeda.
